One more advantage the BA330 will give you....Anti feedback control is excellent....I have seen major feedback problems on the Bose Compact...Mic feedback with longtime experienced performers...They are always looking for the best position of the Bose...to avoid the feedback problem...
Strange! I've never encountered feedback with either my L1 or L1 Compact - EVER! And, I don't know anyone else that had a feedback problem. Ya' think the guy you're talking about might have been using a cheap, unidirectional mic?
