The guy I have been tutoring on the S-970 is using an S1, says it's incredible for small jobs, crystal clear keyboard and vocals, no distortion or clipping, and he also goes directly from the keyboard's output into the Bose with no mixer interface. Now, from what he says, both the highs and lows are great and the mids were excellent for his vocals. I have not had the opportunity to hear him perform yet, but I will ask him to bring it with him the next time he comes for lessons.

All the best,

Gary cool

Gary thanx for the reply.
I hope Zuki can elaborate further on his problems with the Bose s1 pro.

Kinda weird that Jim would have a clipping problem. I never experienced clipping with any Bose system I've owned. I guess they could be overdriven, just never happened to me in more than a decade of using Bose.

I do the same act as MEL, probably - full arranger and vocal. It may have been user error on my part, but reading (like) reviews, I dumped them very quickly and went with QSC. The 8.2s are very manageable vs S1.

I would love to hear them live, but have never seen them around here. MEL, would you fly me down???? I'm happy that they're working out for you smile

Here is a portion of an email I received review on the S1 pro...

"I have owned Bose products and used them for gigs since the 1980s. I presently own a Bose L1 Mod 2 and an F1 along with two of these S1s.

Bose has hit a massive, tape-measure Home Run with this product. The sound is awesome; Bose clear and crisp WITH bottom end. Produces plenty of sound for small to medium sized rooms. I've run them on battery for at least 4 hours with power to spare.

I was practicing in my studio with a friend last week, 2 electric guitars, 2 voices, drum machine and was surprised when I realized that the F1 I thought was teamed with the S1s was MUTED. LOTS of sound volume and clean and clear response.

One of these is truly wonderful. Two of them are Awesome! The Best sound I know of - and they fit easily into my 2 seat sports car with all the rest of the gear..."

Donny, why don't you go to Guitar Center and try out it out yourself? I bet they'd even let you connect one of their keyboards to it too. Report back to us with your thoughts.

Tip: Go on a weekday morning to avoid a crowded noisy store!

Paul, I didn't say I was buying one at this time, I already have more then enough PA Power with my pair of JBL EON One speakers which sound amazing. I was just inquiring from SZ people that are using them to get a consensus of this product. We used to have a BOSE store a few miles away but has since went out of business. I rarely ever go to a music store to buy gear rather I'll just research best I can, talk to people that have it, buy, try, and then decide to keep it or return it.

In Germany the Bose S1 is even on display in entertainment electronics markets (Saturn, Mediamarkt).
