PA Advice

Garage/indie rock band here looking for our first real PA speaker setup mainly for vocals. We rehearse loud in a garage with drums and guitar amps, and we’re starting to play small shows soon. Budget is around $150–$350 for one powered speaker right now, then I’ll probably buy a second matching speaker later this summer.
Main priorities are:
vocal clarity

enough volume/headroom to hear vocals over drums/guitars

something that won’t immediately need replacing after a few gigs

decent upgrade path for future shows

Currently considering:
Alto TX410

Behringer B112D

Mackie Thump series

Would love advice from people who’ve actually used these in loud rehearsal/live situations.
