    @madness8556 2 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I had a non battery powered Maui 5 and sold it because it had a glaring con, that being a lack of XLR output that would allow you to connect it to another Maui or any other speaker. The Maui 5 GO and Maui 5 go 100 have this crucial feature allowing you to connect a pair of them together for stereo operation.

    great review, great content...this speaker sounds great and I did consider buying them but they are expensive as heck for what I needed them do (I do own the 2 EV Evolve 50's)...alternatively I went with a used harbinger mls900 with a battery pack...sounds great and definitely does the job + completely wireless...The set up to looks very sleek and the battery pack is virtually invisible....I add a battery operated sensheiser g4 lav mic and I'm good to go for most ceremonies...I also have a wireless battery operated mic as well...Total cost with the used mls900 and the battery pack about $500...I just posted a video of my set up check it out.

    I own 4 of these & use them for ceremony & cocktails hours only until last weekend when I was asked to cover a small pub. 2 of these and I was off & running. The batteries lasted just over 4hrs.

    • @DayNNyteDJs
      @DayNNyteDJs 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I'm torn between the Compact and the Maui 5 Go. The general consensus seems to be leaning toward the LD. Please let us know how you feel after you use it at a ceremony. Thanks.

  • @kicks92

    I bought the bags when I bought the speakers. I knew it would be cumbersome without the bags.

  • @madness8556
    @madness8556 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The S1 might be more compact and easier to carry but you also need to factor in speaker stands if you have 2 of them and exposed cables which isn't an issue with the Maui 5 GO.

  • @guitarman14339
    @guitarman14339 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I own 4 of these and haven't plugged in to a wall at a gig since July. Love these. Just wish I could stack 2 batteries to get through the whole night instead of doing the swap.
    BS on that battery life claim though. Who's whistle you cleaning man? 3.5 hours up loud. 5 hours dinner music.

    No parametric eq. Can’t put on an uneven surface (outside on lawns where most ceremonies are)

      I picked up a Maui 5 GO with speaker bags for $1304 delivered to my door from Derrigans Music in Adelaide. Their service is great and they gave me a quick excellent quote, unlike DJ City where they wouldn't budge on the price, claiming that it was already discounted by $50!

  • @madness8556
    @madness8556 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    I've had my Maui 5 GO for a few months now and I like it so much that I've just received a Maui 5 GO 100 for stereo operation. The only difference between the two is the smaller 3200 battery in the GO 100 as opposed to the larger 5200 battery in the original GO.

    I would suggest considering the JBL EON ONE PRO. I did not like the sound out of the Maui 5 GO as much. A lot more bass with the JBL and a much fuller sound, in my opinion. The JBL is usually a lot more expensive, but I have seen them recently for 999.00 or less. I think the price has been discontinued since the JBL Compact hit the scene. Battery life in my JBL EON ONE PRO is around 3 1/2 to 4 hours at close to max volume. I hear the Maui may
    be longer though. But with the ability to pack it all together in the one case ( yes, will be a little heavier than the GO), I feel this is a great battery powered pro speaker.
    Appears both are working for DJs and performers. Just sharing my take.
