S1 came in last night. Thanks to everyone who suggested it. My kids realized they can use it for both karaoke and stand-up so I only got about 30 minutes with it myself. Really simple and sounds great.

It's a great little unit. I've used it mainly for impromptu background music, and streaming for a party, but yesterday I finally set it up as a monitor on the fly where I didn't think we'd need one. Played that role well.

I debated on this purchase for a LONG time but you have to be realistic about what this unit can do (setting ALL the Bose hype aside).
Pulled the trigger on a Turbosound iP300 I got for a good price on Sweetwater instead, no regrets! Sure it’s 10lbs more then the S1 but it’s 600 watts (122db max SPL) with 120 degree dispersion, built in bluetooth & reverb, and a 3 channel EQ with smartphone mixing capabilities. Truly a one-stop-shop! The only thing it is missing is a battery which is easily solved these days with a small Grant Maya portable power station easily had on Amazon. |

The S1 Pro is limited as many smaller PA speakers are.
I have a larger PA for the times that I need one. This S1 will be doing a lot more of my shows now because of it's size. I play solo at rooms that have less than 50 people in attendance most of the time. I won't know how well it will work for me until January. Getting a shoulder replacement in 3 weeks and will be out of commission until then. Can't wait for January!

I am floored by how expensive the S1 Pro (with battery) is, $699, wow! Is it me, or has the price increased over time?

While Bose isn’t cheap they didn’t use inflation of 8% to increase prices (till now). Compare that to European gas suppliers who went up by 300-600%. I expect a price increase for batteries in future. So, spend your money now and save inflation of 8% each year.
