Well there is theory and then there is reality... I've had my Bose Compact for almost two years now, and works great on its own or with a mixer. There is no problem with filling most pubs and restaurants with audience friendly sound, and I routinely get compliments about it from owners and other musicians.

I was skeptical of the whole Bose thing for many years until I worked with a keyboard player who had one and later got my own.

It is also turned out to be the best upright bass amp I have had the pleasure of playing though.

They may not suit everyone, but they can not be dismissed.
