First time I've tried the Bose L1M2 (with Tonematch mixer) I was shocked. Singing into this was unreal, I could hear my voice as if it was in my head because of the "non localization" 180° thing. So I had to own this thing
Yup!

and I did buy it.
Nope. Wife would kill me, or I'd have to kill myself, if I spent $3,200 on a speaker. Even if I saw Angels when I sang through it. I went with the Fishman SA220, instead. She only groused.

Later I realized it was a total overkill for my need and I did eventually find it to sound "digital" and cold.
Sounds familiar! Bye bye Fishman SA220.

The Bose L1mII is still the very best thing for the application it is meant for.
Agreed!

I am suprised the engineer in you did not push you to build your own by yourself.
Slow down Cow Poke, I'm not that kind of engineer. I considered it when I was younger and built lots of computers, servers, and bread board electronics stuff. I even worked as an IT guy to help pay for college. But, now I only dabble in computers and electronics. I build BIG stuff for a living. Real BIG stuff. :-)

Now my dream would be to have the time to:
...practice my music. And, not spend 70 hours a week commuting, in front of a computer, in meetings, or on job sites. Not to mention family activities and domestic duties.

PS: One thing I am sure is that in my amplification dream. Vocals and guitar are not amplified by the same amp.
Cuki, you're the only one who understand me. [weeping tears of joy...]
