Bernie not good news

...I've heard this happening to a few people also for some reason with compacts

they don't hold up well under pressure.....I hope Bose cane remedy the situation asap. At least you have the Spacestation, won't that maintain all your needs, or?
Compacts don't hold up well under pressure?
I've been using mine 6 to 10 times a month for a few years now...no problems. To me they are pretty rugged units.
That said, might be worth checking out the new JBL Ones.
