You can't beat it, but you could improve it1 of 1 customers found this review helpful




















There are two things I'd like to see Bose improve on with these units. Adding a master volume, so can change overall output rather than having to adjust the 3 volume knobs independently. Also, since these units are portable and get moved a lot by design, some way to lock lock the knobs or save the mix while in transport would be appreciated.
The app on IOS is OK. Pairing units for stereo output has to be done every time you power up, and sometimes it doesn't work or requires the phone/tablet to be restarted or the units to be re-paired.
The minor annoyances aside, I've replaced my in-house practice PA with a pair of these units with no regrets. The clarity of sound and base response of a much larger system has saved me space, time and make me much more agile for small live gigs or busking.

Synth Bass Distorts It1 of 2 customers found this review helpful




















I just can?t believe the sound!5 of 6 customers found this review helpful




















That said, I was a little skeptical that this tiny, battery operated Bose S1 Pro would be worth the $749 they are asking. I bought it today because of the Black Friday sale and I got the companion backpack ($180 value) for free. Great deal!
I’ve now been using it for the last few hours and I must say that it sounds FRICKIN AWESOME! I really can’t believe that this small speaker can generate such a crisp, clear, warm tone for guitar, vocals and my bass/drum backing tracks and run on a battery for 6-11 hours (depending on volume). I should point out that I get far better tone on both guitar and vocals by turning the Bose Tone-match circuits off and using a bit of the available two band EQ on the vocals. The reverb is great too!
The bottom line is that it was worth every penny! I am always blown away by Bose audio equipment and this S1 Pro is no exception. This little powerhouse won’t replace my two Bose L1’s for bigger venues but for smaller rooms, busking or playing where there is no power you just can’t go wrong!
With this Bose S1 Pro and two Bose L1’s I just cant imagine any gig in my world that I couldn’t do... I highly recommend this speaker!
Awesome PA with some additions!0 of 0 customers found this review helpful




















Added second S1 (borrowed from my buddy)... can easily fill a large room of 150 - 200 people (possibly more!).
The F1 is for sure on the pricey side but the deep tight bass from the F1 and the crisp mid and highs coming from the S1(s). Great compact mobile PA system!
Very versatile!!

Quality sound with an unreal quantity2 of 2 customers found this review helpful




















Superb amp1 of 2 customers found this review helpful




















The battery life has been great for me - 2 hours of busking hardly uses up the battery power.
On Christmas Eve I was accompanying my Dad in his church and decided to take the S1 (I also own a Bose L1M2). Good choice! On a speaker stand I found the sound to be even better than on the floor. I used two mics (with an ART mic mixer) - Shure Beta 58a and SM58 in ch.1 and my guitar (12 string acoustic) in ch.2.
The sound carried clearly to the back of the church.
Overall very happy with this amp. (Even considering selling my L1M2 and getting a second S1!)
Good for guitar & vocals1 of 2 customers found this review helpful




















We were disappointed...
It is small, portable & has that Bose tone but..
- a bass guitar sounded good at low volumes but was unusable when Bose volume was above 4 due to clipping/distortion
- the BeatBuddy drum machine sound was thin. This unit did not reproduce the tone nearly as well as the larger Bose L1
- Acoustic guitar & vocals were very good
I was amazed!4 of 4 customers found this review helpful




















I confess - I've never really liked ANY acoustic guitar amp I've heard until now. They always seemed to have very tiny speakers for their professed watts. They always sound good in the store, but get 'em out on a real job and they sound a bit flatulent. My guitar always sounds better through just the PA.
So, getting back to the S1 ....First of all...it's tiny! It's a lot smaller than my previous amp, which wasn't big. It weighs less than 15 pounds.
When I plugged in to the one at the store I was, to put it mildly - blown away! All that sound out of THAT little thing?
I used a Taylor guitar, similar to the one I normally use...and wow! It sounded as good as my big L1 system. No distortion or deterioration when cranked it as loud as I dared in the store. Bose never announce the watts for their products. Like Rolls Royce with their cars. The power is "adequate". It sure is! I'd guess around 60 watts? - but it sounds good right up to the highest settings, unlike my other amp, which, theoretically, is 120 watts. The built-in "Tonematch" controls give you a pre-set EQ which works very well for me. Two settings, one for acoustic-electric guitar, and one for microphone. Basically, it sounds just like the full size Bose systems...with total simplicity. Only two main channels, with only volume, bass, treble and reverb (in addition to the "Tonematch" preset switches.) There is a third handy channel which allows "Bluetooth" connections or anything else you can plug in with a small phone jack. Not even a "master volume". To me that's good - no worrying about how to juggle the various levels.
I took it home and gave it a really good workout. I have yet to use it on gig.
Vocals are very clear and crisp, as is, of course, the guitar. And, oh yes, it will supposedly run for up to 11 hours on its internal rechargeable battery! So....it will, I'm sure work beautifully as a guitar amp, a small PA or monitor. I know most of these reviews are written by people who, like me, have just bought the item and are still in love with it. I suspect this love affair will last for many years!
Small system, big sound1 of 1 customers found this review helpful




















I already have the mid range bose system and large bose system which I?ve had since 2010. This will be a nice addition for smaller venues where I don?t feel to carry in the big stuff. Also great service at the peterborough store. Thanks for your help

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty
A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.
Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.
How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
- Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
- Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
- No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
- Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
- Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
- Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
- Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
- Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
- Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.
Purchasing additional years of coverage
Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.
If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:
- NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
- USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
- GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
- BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
