This subwoofer is expensive but for equivalent price other subwoofers manufacturers are still with cheap ferrite driver, this one has a neodymium driver.
Took out the Pro32 to compare to my L1M2. Here’s what I found: Pro32 is noticeably louder. Sub2 is louder than two B2’s especially for deep bass. Pro32 is much cleaner with better highs. B2 has better and cleaner mid bass but lacks in the lower bass (I ran 2 together). Conversely the Sub2 has better low bass but mid bass isn’t as clean as the B2. I agree with Opaz again that the Pro32 sounds great but Boss might have missed the mark in the sub. I used my L1M2 bases to power two B2’s and some songs preferred the B2’s for the punch and in others the Sub2 for low end. I suspect something like an EV EKX15sp or the 18 would be killer. More testing to come if I can find one to actually buy. Time to trade in the M2’s and 1S.
Did you have the sub 2 settings correct on back of sub there are different settings for eq etc. I have has no issues with sub 2 with correct eq settings. In fact it is the best sub I’ve heard. Also I lay it flat not standing up, and it has so much punch.

Hi, do you have any clip or video how to take the Grill off of Bose F1 Model 812 Array Speaker? I want to know how so I can clean up inside do to the kids stuffed toothpicks inside. Please help! thanks!
You will need to remove the complete plastic top, I think then more screws will be exposed. I started to remove the handle then I thought, can't be bothered. If I get bored one day Scott, I'll strip the sub completely for you
Great video! What do you think of this new driver woofer driver understand its bose and bit over priced, i was really impressed with there F1 Sub dual 10”
@@opaz. now fella. Just tried the F1 Sub today along side the Sub 2. Sub 2 wins hands down in my opinion. Had to crank up the F1 a lot more tho reach the same volume / low end frequency. I’m sending the F1 back and going to get the Sub 2. Like your vids BTW.
Having now seen this, I wonder why Bose limits the M20 pole to speakers weighing less than 17.6lbs (basically the S1). With all that solid bracing, it should be able to easily hold 50lbs without any danger of collapsing onto itself. Any thoughts on this? Would the Sub2 pole support an F1 812 top (44lbs)?
The sub 2 will only do deep, that is it. .. which may convince that it's deeper. The jbl, much more musical will go 2Hz lower which you're not gonna really hear. Being a dedicated sub & larger enclosure, the 2 has a bigger footprint therefore sounding louder. Push level control above 11 o'clock and it sounds dreadful. Max out the jbl bass settings and it's still very tidy 👌🏼. For the $ the prx is extremely special. People hear lots of bass and immediately think a speaker is great. .. . so much to learn
Have you ever owned or tried the F1 sub? I own two of them but want to know peoples opinions on if the Sub2 is as good, better, not better, deeper bass/not deeper bass etc?
Had f1's recently .... heavy heavy HEAVY ... poor response when turned up ! Had 812 bose tops which you basically switched off the bass on to use with f1 ..a very heavy 8 driver cabinet basically point source .. overpriced in my opinion ... am using l32's with 2 sub 2s tonight .... with a t8s mixer... after a quick set up and test I can already hear clearer sound and bass much friendlier at all volumes... haven't tried cranking it up yet until later
That's some good quality equipment there. Better than I thought.
Well done,thanks!
😆
Good quality but definitely not worth £1100
@@kailumgg7736the Sub2 bass is worth it..very Musical bass with deep lows and long throw

Thank you Opaz & greetings from India, Hyderabad ,
You're most welcome pj 👍🏻
@@opaz. hey, if you don't mind, may you please do a side by side comparison of bose f1 sub vs bose sub2?
I don't have a f1 sub
@@opaz. incase in near future, you decide to get one
Too expensive, I could buy a ekx 15sp and have a lot of change.
Bless from Aruba! thank you for the video, would love to do it myself!
👍🏼
For the price you would expect a nicer cleaner internal finish, it’s like they used a dead budgie to apply the glue. Thanks.
😆
When can you take apart the prx one so we can compare ? Thanks
Don't think that will happen. Only took the others apart during lockdown, no events, bored and nothing to do
OK now this is going to be very interesting...... 🤓
It would be great to see a teardown of the Bose A20 noise cancelling aviation headsets to see how they work and are assembled.

I have a dent on the grill I want to fix it. Still trying to find a way to remove the grill.
Will you able to dismantle the Bose S1 Pro grill? 😄
that speaker is quite old now, surely somebody already has!

Like your vids BTW.
I've never heard an F1 but always thought it was overrated. Maybe being just double10's, i fancied larger drivers.
Cheers and thanks for the info 👍🏻
