Great review! I get average 7 1/2 hours off each charge, and I have had up to 240 ft. Of Bluetooth distance from line of site. Very happy with this little beast!
Jason thank you! Need a favor if u can please test this and let me know what u think.
Connect your phone or laptop via the 3.5 to a XLR splitter to connect to both channels on the Bose which lets you now manipulate bass and treble!
I tried it and the Bose just opened up!
Much appreciated
Thanks for the great video Jason . Do you think Two of these speakers will be good for 30-40 people house parties ? Am DJ using DDJ 1000
I couldn't listen to this with the constant beat behind the voice. I gave up after 2 mins. in
Do they have a sub you can pair with it?
Hi, nice video. Are these good speakers for parties?? If 2 of them, say for 100 people party?? Thanks
You could do a small party with two of them. They are smooth and clear, but you'll definitely be lacking that low-mid response. If I were you, I'd pair them with a subwoofer for the best sound- and even then, I'd probably not count on them to do more than a 100 people. Good luck and sorry for the late reply!
Great video? Any idea of the 'actual' output of this speaker? Where I live, the council state I can only use a 20 watt amp!! I'm assuming if I use my bose s1 Pro on low volume it won't be over 20 watt? Many thanks Sean
Hi Jason, how you compare this speaker to Mackie Thump Go ???
Bose says up to 50 people application. With a pair indoors how many people?
Sorry for the late reply. It depends on the application. You could do 100 people for sound fill or something similar with a pair. But I wouldn't rock a party with two of them. Not without a subwoofer at least- even then, It would be pushing it.
@@djjasonhooper9882 Thinking 75 people max with a pair.
Can use RCA plugs with adapter
Yes! Sorry for the late reply
plss plss include in your vlog if the bose can be used without battery ..answer me if it is.??no one notices...the battery also if long term use can be die..
Hey! Sorry for the late reply! This speaker will easily go 6+ hours on battery power. It doesn't lose power or volume. If you can, its always best to use mains, but this speaker is phenomenal on battery power.
hello Jason hooper a lady sold it bose s1 pro pa speaker cheers please let me know kinds regards william c adlam cheers I'm looking forward to your reply kinds regards?
They raised the price by $100! It's $699 now.
How’s the bass on it, also when you are using Bluetooth can you adjust the bass, treble setting as well?
805KUERVO Hey thanks for checking out the video! The bass is great for a small (6”) woofer. As with all Bose stuff, the magic they put into these speakers to make them sound so good and full range is amazing!
Unfortunately, the Bluetooth input has no bass or treble control :/ you need to use whatever program your streaming from to control eq. I use, and recommend DJAY by algoriddim.
Big price otherwise I like it.
Hate macs
Lol. Sorry to hear that. To each their own!
I love this speaker/PA so much, I bought two! I have the backpacks you can get for them, and really lightweight aluminum stands in a heavy duty bag. I am a professional violinist that plays with backing tracks and I have been extremely successful playing on the street with this setup. It's a real experience and makes it feel like you're really inside of the music especially with two of them. The money that I've made on the street has paid for all of my equipment two or three times fold. I also highly recommend the investment. 🤩
Wow! Thanks for sharing your experience! I’m so happy that the S1 works so well for you; You must be a phenomenal violinist!
Thanks for watching and the comment! I really appreciate it! Cheers!
@@djjasonhooper9882 Thank you! I didn't know about that low battery blinking of the light thing so thank you for saying that. Yeah my colleagues around where I live call me the pandemic gigmaster. I played 42 outdoor shows since April 1st and 28 online events since April 1st....,😵💫😉🎻🤩
@@brynny68 wow!!! Soo cool! Keep it up!!
Thank you! Awesome walkthrough video. I should be receiving my speaker in two days. I can’t wait! Cheers
So glad this was helpful! Enjoy your speaker, you'll love it!
That was an amazing review! I’ve watched several reviews and learned the most from your review. Thanks!
Thanks Ben! I’m really glad you got something out of it and that it helps you out! I really appreciate the watch and comment! Best wishes!
How many hours to fully charge?
Wow Jason! This is the best battery rig for a ceremony I have ever seen. Thanks so much for sharing. I just pulled the trigger on this and I cannot tell you how much more simple my ceremony setup will be. This is SO appreciated.
Love the pro intro, segue into cell phone video LOL nice review BTW. You're the reason I'm buying this Bose S1 Pro.
Hey, thanks so much! I’m happy to know that I helped you make a decision! I hope you like it! Thanks for watching and commenting! Cheers!
Great vid Jason!
Bose anything is awesome 👏
Such a great brand! Love how in depth you went my friend! 😎
Hey Tim!! Thanks for checking out my video- I appreciate it! Bose is expensive lol but one example of where you get what you pay for, in a good way!! 😊 Cheers buddy!!
I don’t think channels 1 and 2 are TRS? I think they accept either xlr or a TS/mono plug? I could be wrong.
Sorry for the late reply. channels one and two are xlr/trs combo jacks with switchable impedance, based on what you're using.
Thanks for the review! Satellite ideas handy....
Hi,
I was wondering if you could answer a question for me. I have the Bose S1 and I agree it's an amazing speaker, here's my question though, I was doing a gig today and had it plugged into the mains, but after a few hours it started to loose power, a decrease in volume, luckily I was just finishing my gig, but I thought if you were plugged into the mains it would always be 100% ?...I also use an i pad for backing, any advise would be welcome, many thanks
Andy
Sorry for the late reply- I hope you have figured this out! It should definletly NOT lose volume or power when connected to the mains. If it has kept doing it, you should contact Bose to see if they can help.
Hi there. Can I plug in 2 microphones and 1 guitar to this PA system? Thanks.
Sorry for the late reply. I don't think so. It has two XLR/TRS combo jacks. So, you could do two mics, two line Level inputs (guitar, keys) or one of each.
Hi Jason! I have been watching reviews about this unit for a while now, yours almost convinced me on getting one.Can this be used on karaoke as well? What do you think? Thanks for this man! 🤟
yes i have one im always using it for videoke...just use orriginal mic so it pairs perfectly than using a cheap mic. but i havent try and i would like to ask because no ones notice if the speaker plays without battery..im scared to removed mine and try.
Great Video. DJLu here... I also do weddings, parties, etc. and I have this speaker. Recently, I bought the S1 Pro + that just came out, and I also bought the transmitters (both XLR for mic, and 1/4 in for guitar, or any other sound source. They are phenomenal! All of my setups are like yours, except I use all battery powered systems for complete autonomy. I have even been praised because I used these as indoor backups when the power went out at an event due to weather. These are not cheap, but are very reliable and sound great.
I so want that speaker and its sub. But my renter and wife would ki k me out of the house in a heart beat. I feel in love with them when i heard them in las vegas.
I confused it with the F1. Still cool
I love when you showed the outdoor lapel mic too 🎙So awesome how neat and clean the setup is! It sounds fantastic too! Great job Jason!!
Thanks Tim! 😊😊
The AER compact 60 speaker makes the Bose speaker goes to the back of line. AER Twice the price but 10 times better.
You pay for quality
hello Jason is this pa speaker used for djs please let me know thanks?
I use it as a fill or satellite speaker. You could use a pair of them and get great room filling, clear sound. But, you definitely won't have the best low mid range and bass response.
Hay Jason, how about sound equalizer on this speaker? I can’t find one..
UR must make for pre amp Karaoke Prosesor.room.only.its be good 4 all Sir
Hi Jason, would this replace my actual cinemate 15? Thank you for the review ☺️
Can you leave it plugged in with power cord when doing DJ gigs?
I got one, do you recommend to buy another one?? And use them both
That's up to you! It depends on what you're using them for. I'd never use them as my main system, but for satellite, fill or ceremony speakers, they can't be beat. Sorry for the late reply!
@@djjasonhooper9882 if buy two speaker how many instrument and mic can connect ??
I want to connect 2 channel stereo keyboard and 2 mic vocals.. possible ??
Perhaps The Greatest Small Powered Speaker. EVER!
does it come with the stand?
No, it doesn't. But it will go on any common speaker stand.
Jbl patybox 300 or s1 pro?
Hey! I don’t have any experience with the party box, but I would be willing to bet that there is a comparison video between the two! Good luck!
The fact that you pay over $600 and you cant even get a stand oe common rca inputs is a joke 👎🏿
Rich Royalty Official Well, I’d call it inconvenient more than anything else. This speaker sounds amazing and has killer battery life- but to each their own my man! It’s not for everyone! Cheers 😊
Look into Ev Everse 8
hows the bass on this?
