Success!!!
 

So the kids wanted a new stereo for their room and I had a new stereo in the shop that I basically just plug my ipod into to listen to music. I thought about how I was using my Marshall mini stack as my cpu speakers and remembered that I had a G100RCD head lying around that I never used... So, after $80. on a used MG412A, I officially have the loudest and best sounding shop stereo that I have ever had in my life!!!! Oh, and the kids got "their" stereo :D
