Jim, if you didn't live in the frozen wilds of MI, I would be headed up there for a listen, but at this stage of life, I would freeze to death before I got halfway there.

Have fun, old friend,

Gary

Yes, to replace the biggies (will keep for a while). Going to 15 is huge. Being able to utilize a dual pole mount is intriguing. I'm not a boomer, so not real concerned with the bass and not clip. I have a good feeling about the fidelity - exciting, can't wait. Will have Saturday - 2 gigs!

So after reading the Bose S1 posts I went to Guitar Center to but a BUT/TRY a Bose S1. Please – this is based on my needs and what I feel is quality.

Not impressed for $599.00. When Bose PA speakers first came out people thought they were the best of the best. I went to see some big bands that were using them; they were fantastic. BUT when compared to the Pas with the large bass bins – Bose was much cleaner, they cut through right to the back of the room but although you could hear the bass, you could not feel the bass. The Pas with the speakers in the poles and the large bins were much warmer. (Opinion)

Same with the home units. I own a Bose Compact because the weight balances the difference. My best set up was two powered JBL 10” on poles or on the floor, depending; and a powered sub-base when needed. (Which was not too often)


I enjoyed the video but the room in itself doubled the clarity and volume. Tomorrow the Bose S1 will go in my garage where I can boost the volume a bit; I don’t think I will keep them.
In all honesty a megaphone would do the jobs that I MIGHT be playing soon. So all this is just remembering when. (smile)

Thanks for your review John. I ordered a pair and will put through a good 20 - 30 gig test. I hope to get a good enough bass response to handle small rooms. Looking forward to hearing more smile
