Sub 2's work like traditional speakers and can work with any other speaker system. No packlite needed.

@@skinjobs1237 thanks bro looks like I need a upgrade en grrr😢 can’t find packlites anywhere on the net and wondered what they replaced it with and why they stopped .. thanks again m8

@@Lee-y1l Sub 2's hit 10 times harder than the B2 or any of the older Bose Subs. You should go to a Guitar center and listen to them.

@@skinjobs1237 cheers man .. I don’t have a guitar shop near me but I have Amazon so maybe I’ll order one and try before I buy .. gutted as just brought a model l1 2 with 2 b1s and 1 b2 and can only run one b2 😢 sounds awesome though in my living room as I mix alittle drum&bass … cheers

😂😂😂 try to useJBL SRX or YAMAHA DZR and we discuss after test

indeed

The Bose S1 are nice but i needed more power for my rig and i got 1 L1 Pro 16's.. Now it sounds like a live concert on and off stage. With the 4 sub 2's and the 2 same subs in the L1 pro 16's, well need i say more? I sold both of my F1 stacks, and both of my S1 Pro's.

@@skinjobs1237 Yeah I bet that sound like a concert Noooo Doubt!! 👍💯💯💯💯

indeed.

skinjobsrc.net

it does.

I will just say that when i play out with them, I go into the mixer and turn the BD down by 3 sometimes 6DB because it just hits so damn hard i don't think i will ever need it to hit that hard. Dialing it back allows for cleaner sound and the people love the way it sounds. Full and warm, not muddy and or repelling.

I have had distortion issues as well but when your signal is hot, and if you use them with the HPF on i always turn down the bass in my mixer 3-6DB because that bass response is crazy. I did a party in the park on Sat may 11th with 4 Sub 2's and 2 L1 pro 16's and turned the bass down on everything. Played everything with volume on the subs at unity, and the l1's about 9 o'clock on the vol. but all the other setting on the L1's were dialed down as well. You want clean sound not boom. Everyone could not stop praising the clean sound, the warm base. Was not anywhere near high volume levels all day but you could hear us all over the park for 6 hours. No clipping, no muddy sounds, and no one asked us to turn it up. It sounded like a opera had a baby with the club. We played House music all day. here are a few clips from the party from our facebook friends. facebook.com/brian.talmadge.92/videos/1117789186156099 facebook.com/momotv.henry/videos/840440911331105 facebook.com/DJSupreme73/videos/1186106292525018 facebook.com/chandra.gore.5/videos/961505635288501 also we are using a Bose T4S to manage all the Bose speakers in our rig.

so i was using just regular power strips and these subs would dim lights and flip breakers. I switched to Furman ss-6b 6 outlet surge strips. problem solved. I also use Furman conditioners. Also 12 gauge xlr on everything. All cables power and sound should be high end.

working on it.

The Sub 2's hit harder and deeper. Selling my F1 subs now and gonna get 2 more sub 2's

@@skinjobs1237 i'd love the f1 subs when i heard them, so you saying that the sub 2 is better, i know what i'm getting.

Be careful. The failure rates of sub2 are far higher than F1s. F1 needs a hot signal and once you give it that, it should at par with sub2

@@armgod1 where is this data? Because F1 subs have been around for over 8 years now and to make that claim with out data to support it gets you the side eye. Share a link or something...

@@skinjobs1237 i am in a bose forum group for F1 owners as well as other bose groups for L1/L1pro and S1pro. I own all bose series. I know what am talking about. u want data on failure rates of Subs1/2? or data on the affinity of bose F1 for hot signals?

I have seen them all trust me (your vids). lol. glad you chimed in kid. Using the tonematch mixer with all my subs on the right channel in mono they sound better and allow me to push them harder with out messing with my tops. My sound meter shows high numbers this way. And i have other videos of me laying them flat vs standing, just going to leave it to personal pref. What i hear and feel coming from them they sound better standing side by side, and the numbers don't lie. You get more DB with coupled, not in stereo, and in pairs of 2. The great thing about Bose they just sound great so the coverage is easier to manage. And as a DJ they really don't have a lot of set up advice just users and reviews. So i treat them like any other speaker and look to engineers who do sound for a living. They all say placement is key, wiring, coupling, and eq'ing. I will stick with that, and look forward to your next video. Thanks!

Maybe it's me but I don't run anything mono. If you run your whole system mono and then you run your system stereo you can hear certain artifacts of the song including the bass that will sound a little narrow vs wider. I use to be a sound tech for festivals and outdoor concerts. In my 20 years of DJing. I've never seen anybody run their setup in mono. Now if it's just the subwoofers that might be okay but if you're running the whole system like this, I know you're losing a lot of spatial sound in your audio. I look up at hooking a DJ equipment like you would just surround sound system at home. Would you run all of your speakers off of the left channel? Also if you want more sound out of your subwoofers and you do want to run them mono maybe you should get an XLR splitter that's male to female. This way you can plug in to both your left and right output at the same time and out to one XLR into your sub. That way your sub gets both the left and right audio. Or you could easily achieve this by running both left and right to the sub and then Daisy chain your subs as such but you'll need way more XLR cable. If you're running all your subs mono, do you use the XLR outputs on the subs at all? Hopefully you're not running subs off one channel and mains off the other. 🤔😎 What's your method?

@@DJBpartyTV Hi there! FOH engineer here ;) Running subs in stereo is pointless, subs are omni directional and cannot produce a stereo image on any useable scale even on our D&B SL -Sub array as the listening position will never be the same for everyone so its just wasting a ton off energy for maybe a small handful of people getting sub stereo in the entire festival. So that's not quite accurate information you are passing on here! So comparing anything home audio to this is pointless. Changes and differences in setup all depends on the room and position you are setting up in. Sometimes ill run a stereo setup, other times the room is just not correct and reflections will cause comb filtering in a stereo setup so you are better off just running a single column of speakers in mono. Running the 2 sets of subs on channel 1 and 2 and the rest of the system on 3 and 4, as long as the tops run a stereo signal its all good!

Does the same rules apply to column array systems? (Evolve 50, JBL PRX, Bose Pro16s) Do the rules change with powered versus passive? Do the rules change with DJ setups versus live event setups? Do the rules change with mixers that have one volume fader versus mixers with left and right volume faders? Do you still run mono subs if they are placed on the left and right of stage with speakers pole mounted to the top? If so how would you run audio in these types of scenarios. I don't want to sound like I know everything and I'm always interested in learning. 😎

I feel you sir. I have seen many set ups. And some run subs mono and others don't. This has always been the debate right? I guess it will always come down to your needs at the time you are playing, and if you are just Dj'ing or having a live event with mics and different players. We are in the same boat, not knowing everything. But we agree on 1 thing and that would be that these Bose speakers are the truth. After 12-15 years of use I love them. @@DJBpartyTV

There is still sometimes a reason to place subwoofers separated on either side of the stage; this tends to concentrate low frequency output in the area between the left subwoofer and the right subwoofer, which is helpful if you have neighbors to one side that shouldn't be disturbed. Also if your 'left' and 'right' main speakers are separated very far apart, and both are far away from the subwoofers, then the subwoofer sound can begin to seem separated from the output of the main speakers - both in time and in sound quality. Lastly, if your stage isn't elevated, then a cluster of subwoofers in front of the stage may not be tolerable.

You can move them apart by up to 50cm (20cm gap between each) and they will still couple up to their highest frequency (around 200Hz). This also has the advantage of slightly reducing the output to the sides, if you need to avoid cancellation nodes from side walls.

Sounds different in person. Very warm, and full of detail. Way more that any other sub and array for the buck. But thanks for the comment.

lol.
