Honestly, my first thought goes to our kids camp worship. Same space as the dining hall, so something like this would be perfect for 200 kids instead of the pieced together system, I set up this year. Great vid!

[@mattgraham1203]

Appreciate you mentioning the rough crowd coverage!

[@ColtonVanceMusic]

Your videos help get ideas for our band. Thank you for time and effort into what you do!

[@ifonlyhowie]

Had a pair of the pro32 columns with the sub 2’s. Soon sold them on. Pfft. Good for small gigs and single columns use but these 16’s are better for most applications.

[@sergevilmar8502]

We have the L1’s with the separate Bose Subs and they’re great! Feedback honestly is not an issue that you might expect for 180 degree output. Those Subs KICK! We usually run the system in our fellowship hall at about a mid to high 80dbs, and the volume knobs on the speakers at about 20% with levels peaking about -10 to -6 dbfs on the console meter. They get loud!!! We’ve even used them outside pushing sound across our whole parking lot and they were so loud and clear! I would say do not get the L1 by itself without the sub. It sounds so thin and weak in my personal opinion. Almost as if you’re only get 300hz to 500hz and above. All in all, very good system!

[@sergevilmar8502]

Note: we run this with a Behringer xr18 or a Midas m32 rack both controlled with an Ipad or computer. Honestly if you are gonna buy these speakers, you can get a complete sound system with 18 channels using the xr18 for between $500 to $800 more.

this system is Great quality and excellent sound you need the Tone mach BOSE MIXER to get the best solution for Great quality sound I have the small brother and found out that You need to marry this up with the Bose mixer to get less feedback and better sound quality and it's more stable as well. when Connect it to the any other mixer. But the Bose is the best solution for Great quality sound The T4 Tone mach BOSE MIXER is the best I my understanding It's well worth the money to get the best sound out for the quality Built an linery speaker set up

[@DuaneGaines-n6q]

Yeah I got the t8s mixer. This thing is nice, how many people and size facility can 1 do with the t8s mixer do u think.....

[@LanceHamright]

The link in your description isn’t clickable… it’s missing the

[@RylandRussell]

Wow, thanks Lance! That's the link Sweetwater gave me but you were correct. Got it updated.

[@Richard1977]

Yeah.... Nope. Tried similar systems from Bose over decade ago and not suitable for most audio applications. Best and only usage is for singer/songwriters. And let us not forget that it's way overpriced...

[@NoiseMakerX]

And there has been no development in the last decade... (Mind you, I really dislike the old Bose sticks, but I see situations where a setup like this might be handy.)

[@Hudson-c6h]

So exited to see this video thanks!

[@DuaneGaines-n6q]

So i heard that just only 1 can do about 150 to 200 people is it true

[@RylandRussell]

I'd say 150 people max unless it's just a dance party.

[@DuaneGaines-n6q]

Oh ok so 2 of them could do a crowd of 300. So a single l1 pro 32 sub 2 can probably do 200 to 250 then..

[@benjaminbarnhart2153]

The bluetooth audio concerns of other apps using that output can be mitigated on Android devices by designating that output for one app only. On my phone, i have my work stereo set as spotify ONLY, so if i open another app, it doesn't blast whatever video plays over the whole shop

[@Bobby_Sanford]

I was all on board with this one!…….. until you mentioned the lack of a master fader…. Dealbreaker for me. Otherwise, this product might be the perfect solution for many churches.

[@cbowes28]

I thought you were doing construction in this space

[@RylandRussell]

We are in the fall :)

[@JeffriesFamilyFaithandFitness]

Any issues with feedback from mic in front of speaker? I could see a system like this working really well in our youth group space.

[@RylandRussell]

@@JeffriesFamilyFaithandFitness I was actually surprised. We had zero issues with feedback. The speaker was behind them and and about 10 ft to the side.

[@HudsonNapp]

Oh so you are testing the sheathes 19x20w swig bee’s eye! Is there a video coming?

[@RylandRussell]

The big bee eyes? Those are Betopper lights :) Review coming soon. betopperdj.com/collections/moving-head-light/products/betopper-19x40w-rgbw-4-in-1-moving-head-light?ref=ryland

[@videditorEB1]

Mono?? Uh..no.

[@RylandRussell]

@@videditorEB1 I mean, every speaker is mono by itself, I’m talking about the mixer. 👍

[@videditorEB1]

@@RylandRussell yeah I get it. You need two of these rigs to have stereo sound coming out. For a speaking gig I guess it’s ok, but even an acoustic act is using stereo effects on everything. Most people would never even notice, otherwise these wouldn’t exist. Great sounding transistor radio anyone? Same thing basically.

[@NoiseMakerX]

You'd be surprised how many systems are run in mono.

[@videditorEB1]

@@NoiseMakerX yeah, I know. Lame.

[@ScottGrammer]

Pro audio tech with 47 years experience here. Can this tiny speaker replace your current system? Yes. If your current system is a Kraco car stereo bought at K-mart in 1983. And it's only $2,000! For ONE! Jeez, people, Bose is - and always has been - the Apple of the audio industry. Actually, its more fair to say that Apple is the Bose of the computer industry, since Bose has been making garbage audio gear since 1968. That column is full of TV speakers. Guess what it sounds like? TV speakers. And the sub is loud - if you've never heard a real sub. It only operates over one octave, 60-120Hz, and the TV speakers do everything else. And when it breaks, you CANNOT BUY PARTS. Bose will not sell parts or provide service info. Once it's three years old, you can't even get Bose to fix it. When it breaks, you buy a new one. Please, please, PLEASE go look at real sound reinforcement gear, and don't spend your money on this!

[@camilo8cheryl]

And yet other brands like JBL,EV,RCF etc..has followed what Bose did😂

[@ScottGrammer]

@@camilo8cheryl They make competing products to sell to suckers that would have bought Bose otherwise. But all three companies make real speakers for people who know better. Only a fool would have let Bose take all that free money without getting some for themselves.

[@assimokiran222]

Do you think all bose products are crap? ​@@ScottGrammer

[@ScottGrammer]

@@assimokiran222 Well, I haven't seen them all! They made one speaker system about 25 years ago that I thought was pretty darned good, called the Bose 401. It was a slim tower speaker, three-sided, as I recall, and it sounded better (within its volume limits) than any of their other speakers. They only made it for a short while, if I recall. I think that's because it blew away their more expensive speakers.

[@Selvinop94]

Ok sir thanks for taking the 💩 on Bose, always appreciated. Any recommendations for a mid grade system for a venue designed for 120-150 people?
