And it works in either stereo or mono mode with 1 unit, or you can add a second unit for an even bigger spread.

It's also less money, and has a more natural sound.

Good title. Looks like the perfect setup for small gigs in stereo. Very cool.

1 of the tops has a 60 x 40 spread, so if you angle them you have about a 120 degree spread.

As for the sound, everyone has their own taste. But when I tested it against a compact, all that were there said the Nano was cleaner sounding, volume apperared to be louder with the Bose, but we determined it was the over hype'd eqing of the compact

btw my compact will be on ebay later today for those interested

It does sound like an awesome product and when Frankieve endorses it that speaks volumes. Frankieve is tops as a dealer.

.........but I can't help saying this either. Every tablet that is released is supposed to the "iPad Killer" I wonder whether that phenomenon will take place with this new product...............

Ok and now I duck!! rocker

Years ago when the Dawn system was so popular it had two satellites that sat on very flimsy poles similar to light curtain rods. The pictures on Frankie's link picture poles that look a little more substantial...but I'd like to hear Frankie's assessment. It also appears the poles are optional. Yes?

I listened to the Youtube video demo of this system and it sounded as if the Sub-Woofer was overpowering the satellites. Plus, I didn't get the dispersion effects with this unit as you get with the Bose system. Could be a crappy demo and/or bad adjustments/EQ.

Maybe Frank can give us a hands-on demo video???? Pretty Please???!!!!

I genuinely feel that some manufacturers outlast and outsell the competition because of their long - standing reputation and constant high standard of product performance ... BOSE is one of those companies ... Some competitors may gain a percentage of the market due to the introduction of certain products - and the NANO 300 may be one of these - but I doubt that it will have a SIGNIFICANT long term effect on BOSE ...
BUT ... it does sound VERY interesting ... more info please Frank ?
thanks

PS ... I sub for another player in the lounge of a nice Italian restaurant ... the lounge is about 50 feet wide and 100 feet long ... the guy leaves his BOSE there for me to use ... I have always been very impressed with the way it 'throws' the sound all the way through the lounge without being too loud in any one place - even right behind me - ... I wonder if the NANO has the same capability ... ?

PPS ... Steve ... I'll be there Sept 1 and 14 filling in for Johnny ... grin rocker
