I tried the Bose S1 and the Everse 8 next to each other. Bose S1 pro plus is way better. Took me 2 minutes to tune the Microphone. Everse 8 took me 10 minutes and still sounded crappy... They are both about equally loud even though Everse says its 400 watts..

No change, except the control panel, could put a processor with more effects, like harmony, delay, hall, etc. I prefer to buy alto busker with multiprocessor, double puds, double battery life, for bosses you pay the brand, that's all

[@johnpaulirvine5845]

Are they not wireless receivers, rather than transmitters? And if so, surely they can't 'turn any mic into a radio mic'? Perhaps I'm wrong, in which case I look forward to standing corrected! Watching further, aren't those 1/4 inch jack wireless transmitters for £165 designed to plug into a guitar or similar? And if so, do you also have to buy the wireless receivers that plug into the S1? I'm actually feeling a bit confused and I'm an audio engineer!

[@palewizardrecords4734]

They are actually both. The speaker has the wireless receivers built in. The transmitters (sold separately) fit in to those compartments. You can either get a 1/4" or XLR. So the XLR one for instance simply plugs straight in to whatever mic you have. Once the transmitters are placed back in the compartments they will charge and have a battery life of around 3 hours.

@@palewizardrecords4734 Ah, now I understand, thanks! So the receivers are built in and the compartments are just to store / charge the transmitters - how cool!

[@palewizardrecords4734]

@@johnpaulirvine5845 yeah it's a really cool and smart addition

Who gona pay the 400 extra for the wireless. When the battery only last 4 hours .very disappointing bose .also no double xlr out for a multy effect board. Instead of a y cable

You are paying for the name. There are way better options out there for the price.
