We're playing at a home tonight...large room...crowd of maybe 20.

Thought I'd dust off the Nano 300 and hook it up to the S970. Hadn't used the Nano in a long time.

Right off the styles sounded good...full with a nice, warm bass. But the voices, piano, guitar, strings etc....well, just plain muddy. I fiddled with the EQ on the Nano for about an hour, trying to clean up the voices....no luck.

So before trying to EQ the voices on the S970, I hooked up one Bose unit to the S970. I ran a two into one line out from the S970 to the single Bose.

When I started playing, I was immediately reminded why I use Bose. Voices were clean, clear and sounded great. Styles weren't quite as warm as the Nano 300 but excellent none the less.

When it comes to PA systems, im sure I'll try the latest and greatest...at least occasionally. But the Bose will be, for me, the gold standard any PA has to measure up to.

The Nano is hooked up again to our TV for sound. It works OK there. Maybe some day I'll fiddle with the Nano and S970 again when the mood strikes me.
