I've been running my Bose L1C with a Behringer xr16 for over a year and not once have I thought about replacing either. For the gigs I play solo its perfect and with my duo we run 2 L1C's. Have yet to feel underpowered and every time I walk around adjusting the mix while my partner plays I'm blown away at how good it sounds....from every angle. Also every time I load in/out
On a side note I read a lot of people are having issue with the router in the xr16. Only time I've had connection issue is when I don't close the app on the tablet So now I always shut down after each use and restart fresh each time and no issues at all... |

Coming from 30+ years of the home hi fi world my experience has been that Bose is poorly designed, poorly built and doesn't sound so good. People convince themselves that it's good for some reason. When I worked retail long ago there were 2 things that were just about impossible to sell against: Consumer Reports and Bose.

Bose quality
Have a Bose wave radio that I picked up late 80's or early 90's. Still works and sounds good to me. Now it has an Amazon echo dot plugged into the audio and couldn't be happier with it.

The higher end Bose car stereos for brands like Infinity and Acura are a different story. They're pretty darned hi fi compared to what's out there.

Yes, I have updated all of those. By getting rid of them for good.

I used to somewhat dislike Bose products based on their marketing, but I cannot deny that some of the Bose products simply sound very good to my ears. Recently, I had the opportunity to go to my local GC and compare the Fishman 330x, the JBL Eon, and the Bose L1c. I really thought I was going to walk out of there with the Fishman, but — going on nothing but my own ears and playing my own guitar — I simply liked the Bose better. I didn’t *like* that this was my conclusion, but it was. Everyone has a different opinion......such is life. |

About 11 years ago I bought a used Bose car stereo set up for $18,000... seems like a lot but it did come installed in a white SL500... so I figured I'd keep it awhile as it sounded pretty good to me.

Well I like my 20 year old Alpine head unit and 10 year old Infinity (speakers, not car) system way more than the Bose in Mom's Infinity cause it puts out a way more studio sound ... and in fact I use it as a studio reference .... but compared to other factory car stereos, I find her Bose reasonably enveloping.
I think the best Bose I've heard for cars was in Acura RLs from like 2005-2009 or so. That was pretty flat and had some power. |
