    sku: VM3-BLK .. black covering .. list $180.00 ours $99.99 buy
*******************************

$99 is a good price.  Howevr, the DA5 is a 6 watt amp with a larger speaker, so the DA5 is probably a louder amp than the Mini3.  

Also note the the Mini3 has a headphone out but no line out--so you can't take the output directly to a PA, which you can do with the DA5.

I think I'll stick with the DA5.
