I've been using the compact to solo acoustic gig in rooms of about 50 for years. It's been great. Portability: compared to the dual Mackie arm 450s on stands was worth the price alone. Reliability: never had an issue using multiple times a week for ten years. Sound: frequently get compliments on how good it sounds. Versatility: So here is where the L1 compact is slightly lacking and seems to be a "Bose thing" they give you great sound and quality components and construction. But they seem to, (what I can only assume is on purpose) leave out some of the simpler things. Like a basic reverb that would make a more complete package. I mean it is called the compact. Well it is... But now I have to bring separate effects, cords, power strip etc. Adding bulk, set up, and external processing noise and cost.
So long story short I settled on buying the Bose tone match T1 to get a strickly bose shaped sound for guitar and vocals. So while it was shipping I'm viewing RUclips reviews to justify and come across your vids on the S1. So thanks! I canceled the T1 bought the S1 and love it!
I used it for the first time out last night in a room probably 50/60. I wasn't sure what to expect even though I'd been loving it at home. So I bought my L1 in case. Set up both, ran into the S1 and out to the L1. Basically using the S1 as mixer and speaker but if I needed more volume I could just turn up the L1. Well I was very satisfied with way the S1 filled the room with a well refined and classic Bose style sound. It's like it sounds more like "Bose" than the L1 does. If that makes sense. I didn't need to turn up the L1 at all, in fact when I did experiment with turning it up it seemed to take away from the refined sound I was enjoying from the S1. What's more is ran the S1 on the battery for the whole show, three hours non stop. Didn't need to but I wanted to know that it would. That will definitely help when the place your playing has few outlets and the ones that it has have bad grounds or a neon Heineken sign plugged in...
OH, and as for Bose seemingly purposefully leaving you wanting just a little more... Could you possibly have included fantom power? Oh well maybe in ten more years. Seems like Bose and Apple share the same incremental improvement strategy.
PS. Hmm battery powered speaker+wireless guitar and headset mic =... Rock n roll guitar aerobics class in the park!! 🎸🎸🎸😅😅🤘🤘🤘
That’s awesome to hear! Hahha you’re right about the little features. Maybe, and just maybe in another 10 years, we will a couple more features ;)
I just got two of these Bose S1's for Father's Day and I love them. They are just for home use, when I am lounging around playing old playlists from my old 3rd generation iPod mp3 player. Anyway, do you know if there is a dual channel Bluetooth (Left Channel, Right Channel) device that is made so I can transmit left and right sound to the auxiliary ports on each S1 speaker for a true stereo sound? There is a Bose App that works on newer devices, but my iPod is outdated and won't download the App. Oh and I have a pair of old Klipsch Chorus 3 Main Speakers with several Klipsch surround, center, and Subwoofer speakers that are ran off an old Yamaha rx2090 receiver that i got in 1992 and these new Bose speakers really rock. I will for sure be looking into more of the Bose line of speakers in the future. Any advice would be welcomed.
I did an outdoor show. I had recently replaced my batteries in the S1's. with backing tracks with bas drums etc. I was doing 6 hrs. yes it was chilly out. but I got 5 hrs and 55 mins LOL. Might get longer with just guitar and vocals but having to drive lower frequencies eats some power...
Great comparison! I had two L1 Compacts and sold them to get two Yamaha StagePas 600i systems to rent them out. Side by side I think the Yamaha StagePas sounded better than the Bose L1 Compact. I Bought two Bose S1 Pro(s) as a small lightweight PA to use instead of the Yamaha StagePas since I am doing a one man band now. I did a side by side comparison of the Bose S1 Pro(s) with the Yamaha StagePas and the Bose blew the Yamaha away for sound fullness and clarity. I never got to do a comparison of the Bose L1 Compact and the Bose S1 Pro so your video scratched that itch and thanks to you now I know.
I’m a musician and I use the S1 as a mixer for the vocals and two l1s as the pa. the Bluetooth of the s1 is perfect for backing tracks also.
That’s awesome!!
i prefer the new Bose S1 Pro... bec. i can perform anywhere i want like in the park with no power outlets. With 10 hours battery built in we can do karaoke in camping with superb sound.
I normally don't like listening to or watching speaker reviews on RUclips as obviously you can't really hear another speaker through your laptop or phone speaker, but I felt that there was a big difference in clarity between the S1 and L1 Compact. The S1 sounds really great, and for the size, you can't beat it.
Compact sounds fuller, as it should-- it's got a bigger woofer for bass, bigger, and the array is much bigger. S1 sounds really good but thin in the upper mids and midbass compared to L1.
For mobile use, the L1 compact makes more sense as it sounds better, gets louder, and can extend the top array.
It does cost more too ;)
@@HRR you get what you pay for.
The L1 sounds about a million times better!!!
I have both. Portability go anywhere anytime the S1 pro has become my favorite. But reaching the surroundings I still love the compact. The compact is awesome. So I find myself connecting the S1 to the compact and I virtually never use my L1 model2 or my F1s . Great speakers. All of them. It all depends on what I need and it is nice to be flexible and the Bose line of equipment has allowed me to be that and not break my back(but I can’t say that about my bank account though). I do wish that the F1 could do what it does and be totally portable like the S1 with battery, Bluetooth and EQ. 😊
Great review. I enjoyed your 3 Bose S1 Pro sound test video as well. I was hoping you can do a sound test video for S1 Pro & L1 Compact playing together at the same time. I just bought a L1 Compact and thinking of adding a S1 Pro but not sure how they would sound together. Thank you in advance and keep up the good work that you do. Cheers.
I played live with battery powered traynor tvm 50's. I am lucky I got extended warranties because the batteries had to be replaced every 2 years. I bought them a year apart so every year I took 1 in. The bose s1 came out and I listened in store and bought 1. First gig I had a traynor and a bose. bose set flat traynor with treble almost zero and bass max and the bose killed it. I bought another bose shortly after and sold the traynors. I had a gig promoter show up to a gig recently and he was asking where my sub was LOL. I use a ketron sd40 for my backing band and I run a flat response and a stereo setup with a couple s1's. I have done 8 hrs of music on mine with zero problems. Many of my musician friends have switched to bose s1's after hearing mine. I did a festival opening for a couple bands a few weeks ago (I am a one man band). I had to help them put the massive PA speakers on stands... the band after me asked if I was plugged into the pa... nope. half volume on these little guys. you can go ahead and plug in I don't need your 400 lb pa. last band said they are getting some bose now
S1 has much more space and clearance. And more low kick.... so impressive...
I have both. S1,noticable cleaner high end, Compact high end sounds muddy in comparison. Compact better bass, louder. They sound great together! S1 has reverb.
If you offered me a Pro-8 in exchange for my S1 Pro ? I honestly wouldn’t do it ! That’s how great the S1 Pro Is!
I have both and L1 and an S1. The only thing I don't like about the S1 is having to control the volume for the tracks from the laptop as the speaker itself is too far away to use the volume knob on it while you are actually playing. Same with the microphone. I hook the L1 to a Tonematch 4 so that solves it with the L1. If you hook the mixer to the S1 it uses up one of the channels you need for guitar or vocal.
Don't you plug the guitar and vocals into the mixer going into the 21...not the S1 itself?
Bose S1 Pro only pushes 160 Watts. How good is it really for singers?
Bose L1 is best heard with speaker extension. Separates the lows and mids from the highs and gives a much better sound. If you ad the tonematch T1 mixer to the L1 than it's no contest. L1 is much better sounding. I have toured with this system for years now.
The L1 indeed is a amazing speaker. With that being, I still love my S1 dearly due to its ultimate portability and built in long lasting battery life. It’s like I can just pull it out anytime, anywhere, and starts having fun :)
MINUTE 05:22 for those impatients like me!
Ángel Castellanos Martínez Thx bruv
I have the L1 compact and love it but I'm thinking about the S1 mainly because of the reverb
S1 pro has reverb and more bass into
L1 sounds like it has a lot more low-end which is always good
Definitely its the L1 although the S1 higher freq has some brightness to it. Its the overall weight of the sound mix goes to L1. I just wish you included some samples with vocals and acoustics and not just syntheziser music to sample its wider range
THe S1 is also lighter and smaller and is $200 less lol and its still a debate which one is better
As a vocalist, the L1 is nice especially when I attach my FX mixer for reverb effects…..killer!!! I’m considering the S1 pro. 🙏🏾
Have you listened live? I reserve judgement when all that's available is RUclips sound - there is so much involved in the sound getting to your ears it's not really that much help. The reviewers comments are way more useful.
S1 Pro All The Way ! Wait Till Bose Releases The Big Brother To The S1 Pro ! It’s Going to Be An Earthquake👍. Everse EV Won’t Be Able To Touch It or JBL. Make No Mistake 👍
hello, I already had the L1 compact, I think it's very clean but I think it's too high, I miss the mids in the vocal, the S1 is the same high as the L1 in the voice, or does it have a better mid?
Better, because you can adjust the vocal bass, treble, and reverb
No mid adjust
I have a Pair of S1pro..I dj house partys & small Venues!! 100% Satisfaction! 👍❤👍
how many people max in your events with 2 s2 pro...thanks
Live vocal performance the S1Pro wins. The S1PRO has 3 articulated drivers and 6” woofer. With T4S in stereo mode it’s really amazing for its size.
For a very small coffee shop with 20 people I agree
what sounds louder two bose s1 or a bose l1 compact?
I like the sound distribution of 2 S1 better than 1 compact.
@@HRR two Bose s1 for an outdoor party of 50 people?
Should be good 👍
Nice informative work, but it would be better if you switched A/B between the same musical parts, not just playing along with the song : To me L1 sound more massive/powerful, but you made it kinda hard to tell.
The L1 has much better sounding mid to high frequencies but the S1 being portable makes it a lil better imo
Starts at 5:13
I own both and prefer the S1 sound better... than the L1 Compact. The Compact is system is louder... but if I need more volume I will just use two S1’s in stereo. If I need more volume yet I will use my Model II systems or my F1 gear. My Compacts are now used strictly for rentals...
Which one is better between Marshall woburn 2 and Bose S1 Pro ?
Marshall sounds great and also cheaper
Can I ask with the L1 in a busy small to medium sized venue, about how many people could a single column erected cater to? I have the S1 and love it but looking for portability, quality, volume and price to replace my existing QSC system and the compact looks like it may have what I need ... but not sure if it’s loud enough. Most of my events would be for 100-120 people with the occasional 200-250 event
S1 would not be loud enough.
Este tipo de teste serve apenas para ter alguma noção de timbre das caixas. As duas são de categorias diferentes, se você medir uma bose L2 ou compact de perto com outras caixas a bose perde fácil. O show dela está na distancia. A S1 vai morrer a 10 metros e a Compact vai estar linda. A L2 de perto com um caixa de 134 db toma um banho, mas vai dar uma volta a uns 20 metros que vc vai ver o que uma bose L2 pode fazer.
Is any way that I can connect both of them ????
Price of S1 pro
hello sir,nice review..but how about using the s1 pro on movies,is the bass ok or it needs a sub?thank you..
I tried it at the Bose Store. If I had it, I'd add a sub. But then you're paying about the same price as the L1.
can you use 2 of these 2 channel home audio ?
Looking for a speaker for karaoke with strong bass. Came across this page for reviews on the L1, looking for Bose or any other brand/model? I have the S1 pro but the bass doesn’t give you that smooth boom I’m looking for.
ruclips.net/video/2N79XQWMoFo/видео.html
I use this sub for in home use, which is decent and good enough. As for bigger parties and outdoor events, I use 1-2 Bose F1 subs, which is more than enough for most bigger parties.
S1 Pro sounds good. Is there a way to add a subwoofer on the S1 Pro and any subwoofer recommendation?
Yeah, you can add any sub to it. I personally use either my Bose F1 sub with my 3 S1 pro or the BEHRINGER B1200D-PRO 500-Watt 12"
F1 is my favorite and I highly recommend it
can i use it as a speaker for my turntable?
Yes
the s1 has less bass?
The S1 sounds nice in a living room but it’s not good for bigger rooms.
Great review.. New subscriber 👍
hi, when we could see the comparison between your Bose and HK audio Lucas nano 600? thank you
Hey, what ms the tune ur playing?
halo could you please give info about which ( music ) sound clip you were using in background. thanks
Which one gives better bass? Deep ness
L1.... S1 has decent base and is much more portable
Thanks so much for your video!
How is it, comparing Bose S1 Pro and EON one? Also could you do review the EV Evolve 50?
Here’s the S1 vs Eon one:
ruclips.net/video/IFgDy7FqvkA/видео.html
l am interested in small spikers
so to the people that have the Bose S1 and the compact L1 Which one is louder and more clear???
The L1 Compact is louder. I would say the S1 Pro is slightly clearer. I have two of each of them and find I use the S1 Pro's more often than the L1 Compact's. It's so much lighter and much more flexible in its set up. I almost always use a mixer with the L1 Compact's, but rarely use one with the S1's. Hope this helps.
@@raynaldo2000 thank you for your help you helped me made a purchase decision
I have 2 l1 compacts the l1 is much louder and I believe clearer
same technology with diff specs..the bose was continue the research for the awesomeness of quality..
For loudness, bigger gig..........L1. For compact, battery operated, reverb and price.........S1
My first pro speaker was/is a JBL Eon One. Man it is big and heavy! But the sound it puts out is just fabulous. Fully balanced sound, so rich. I got an S1 Pro in June this year. Amazing given how compact and light it is. Bass is surprisingly deep, sometimes too much so. For listening to a variety of music I love my JBL and super for karaoke. The S1 Pro is great to take to friends homes for parties. Last week I used the S1 Pro on stage as a stage monitor and it did a great job...so nice not needing a power cord.
Oh one last thing. In 2016 I listened to the L1 compact and found the Eon One much better. But without a mixer its volume is low.
Bottom line if you want just one speaker for music or karaoke or to perform for 50 people, get the S1 Pro.
Raja Bhat if s1 pro x2 its can fill the big hall very amazing
Oh, a stage monitor is mainly for performers to listen to the music for say karaoke or dance etc. You can entertain say 50 people with the S1 Pro...
Im wedding planer and most of hall can fill with light music and trio band when used x2 s1 pro that look great and look expensive
Yes agreed...with two S1 Pros you could entertain say 100 people...
Thanks so much for these great videos! I own a Bose S1 and love it for
what it is. My question is have you tried hooking the two together via
the line out? So basically you would be using one (JBL with all the
FX/EQ options ) as your main and the Bose as a sound reinforcement
speaker adding additional coverage to a room? How would that sound?
Thanks in advance!
It sounds amazing! As I love the built in tone match of the Bose. When you do that, you pretty much tuned the JBL and turned it into another bose
@@HRR Awesome! Thanks so much for trying it.
Which is louder?
When you turn both on max, the L1
I own both and the L1 Compact is of course not Battery powered but for recorded music playback is my go to.
I recommend pairing two S1; it's way a whole better sound on a full stereo feeling than the L1, way beyond what the L1 can offer and you get it at a less price.
You should try and do these reviews outside where the sound won’t bounce everywhere
I’ll have to find a place where no one will complain first 😂
How is the bass on S1 compared to L1?
Good review well worth watching if looking to purchase.L1 has a much more balanced sound.Bass is good but muddy on both and clarity is questionable on both at the price point.L1 is better which id expect at the difference in price but if just wanted for playback i’d be buying the s1.S1 would be ok for busking which is why i was looking but tbh there is much better gear out there for the same money and less.Bit like the headphones good but over priced especially at UK prices.
Bose S1Pro yes, choice same carry weight ? Looks much liter and excellente review by the way.price is right ripe ! For my Use for Worship and durable usage just like your BoseL1 ok thanks roger Wilcow over and out 👍👏💥
S1 🙌🏻
You should try plugging the mic and music into the Bose S1 line out to the Bose L1 Compact. Will blow your mind!...I hope you got a new song!😉🎶🎤
lol... i tried the new song, but you didn't like it lol so back to this one
Barry Feterman what’s happens if you try it that way?
Rene Rodriguez it sounds great! The vocals have reverb where it didnt thru just the L1 Compact and the music can be streamed thru the S1 Bluetooth. It works great!
I tried it! it's pretty awesome!! Thanks!
HappyRider Reviews yeah you use the S1 sorta as a mixer...I have the whole L1 compact set up AND the tone match...but I was never happy with the tone match..so this way works great...plus Im getting the LD SYSTEM Maui 5 go fully battery next week...depending on how it sounds I may do the same with that and the S1.
I gig almost 1 hour a day like 4 or so times a week and need to set up break down . No wires no plugging in..fast. So well see how this works
Ill keep you posted.
Thanks
S1 pro sounds better!
🤗
I think so cause its 2/3 of F1 sound its can not delivered morebass than the size but it pretty perfect
Bose Will Be Doing a S1 Pro Upgrade ! Making It A Big
Brother To The Already Top Rated S1 Pro ! If Bose Keeps The Same Technology On The Big Brother ? No One Will Be Able To Match It! Hands Down👍👍
The L1 still handle frequencies close to 50hz better than the S1. But it is still a good buy is you’re not pushing 100 people.
S1 pro is much better.
Plss audio name which playing
I can only tell with instruments and vocals
Pls compare bose s1 pro vs sound touch 30
L1 sound much better, much louder, more bass , with the sound it should even reach much farther than s1 ever could, but it lack mobility without battery support... and functionality of reverb... but as far as sound go.. L1 is much better
why this s1 Pro not ship to India?
I’m not sure
Because s1 Pro is available at all Bose outlets in India, Bose India website and Amazon and flipkart India.
Good job. Thanks !!!
Personally, I like the L1 compact better. To me it's brighter sounding. The pro sounds a little muddy Imo.
I have been running the output from the S1 over to L1 input. This sounds AMAZING thanks to the built in tone match on the S1. So if you have both, give this a try! Especially for vocal, this combo is amazing!
been following you for sometime.. kindly suggest a) 2 S1 pro or b) 1 L1 compact for a dance studio measuring 450sq ft. TIA
Personally, I would definitely go with 2 S1 Pro.
@@HRR thank you so much for the swift reply. i am just concerned about the bass, if we compare it with L1C, but the s1 pro has its own advantages, it has got bluetooth, portable and can be paired easily. it will give me stereo sound as well as i am buying two.
Yes, those are all good points about the S1. The built in tone match on the S1 is also amazing. The L1 does have more bass than the S1, however, not by much if you’re using 2 S1. Getting a small sub would definitely implement it and have them sound better than the L1.
@@HRR can you suggest a good sub for it? And can we connect the bass module from Bose with it?
Listening with headphones, the S1 Pro sounds a little mid-range heavy, a little muddier than the L1, which makes it sound just a little deader.
I tried them both at the store. The S1 is VERY midrange heavy.
Both is good but I take s1 pro...
L1 rich sound no doubt.
Bose l1 compa is better
Song name?
Ikson- last summer
No mids
I knew the great BOSE era, the 802, the made in the USA, really fabulous and legendary. Here it breathes, it stinks of made in china. Research done, BOSE does not have a factory in China, it is all under contract and tootmuch expensive compared to the cost of labor.
S1 has a thin and sterile sound.
S1 pro better
Huge difference l1 is better
S 1 pro is more crisper
S1 pro
S1
Am I high are does the bose S1 looks like a Toaster 😅
I have a S1 and I rushed out to a gig one day and accidentally took the toaster!
@@geespar1 😂😂😂😅
L1 is much much better
Boom box
L1 better
SoundTouch 30 es mejor.
