So, you walk over to your T1, or you hover over the T1 on your table or mic stand, and you 1) 2) 3) etc |

I'd like to thank everyone for so many awesome posts on this thread. The latest ones add so much, audio, photos and all, amazing.
It strikes me that the original topic of this thread was L1 Compact V. SA330x, and it's been multiple pages since the latter was even mentioned. I'm wondering if anyone reading this thread has any recent experience with the Fishman. (Not criticism btw! The latest posts, audio and resulting discussion prompted me to take a closer look at the Bose L1's above the Compact level.) |

Yet, the SA220 got a ton of praise... Maybe because it was one of the first units out there years ago. Now the floor is becoming saturated with "portable PAs and speaker systems.. |

The main attraction of both the Compact and the SA330X is their portability, and the ease of setting up and tearing down. Both systems seem to be primarily focused on the solo singer/ songwriter. Many of the post on this thread involve adding more players rather than sticking to these small units primary intended use. Then the thread seems to focus on the larger L1 units. It seems a bit unfair to compare the larger Bose T1 units with T1 $400+ mixers to the Fishman which costs much less money, and is way lighter and more portable. Apples and oranges. I chose the Fishman because I am a solo acoustic singer/songwriter. I don't use loopers, drum machines, and the like. It's my guitars and me singing my songs. I have a larger P.A. with separate speakers, stands, and mixer with a lot of effects, and rack mounted effects too. I use that if I'm playing with more people. The Fishman has a built in mixer which enables me to set the gain for both my mic and guitar, it has 3 band eq, and 4 reverb settings. The Bose has none of those, and needs a separate mixer to attain the flexibility of the Fishman. Nothing against the Bose, it's a great unit, but for the same money the Fishman offers more portability and flexibility, with quicker set up and tear down. You can certainly spend more money and get the same flexibility with the Bose but then there are more power cords and cables which defeats the portability and ease of set up the Fishman offers in one simple unit. |

Thanks for all the observations in that post. There's a good chance I'll end up with the 330x for exactly those reasons, and being able to add the full setup (sub, extender) if/when needed. Kills me there isn't one around here (DC area) that I've been able to lay my hands on.

My thoughts entirely and I’ve used Boss systems often. While the Compact system is great if I was buying from New I’d go for the Fishman for solo gigs.

I simply have always preferred Fishman tone over Bose. I use the original SA220 and get unsolicited compliments all the time, especially from other musicians. My last gig, a very well known keyboardist told me that he has never liked the sound of acoustic guitars in a band, but that he loved the tone I was getting. The SA is truly self contained with all the eq, reverb, feedback control embedded in the single unit, and a rolling case. There is an old saying, "Price is what you pay, value is what you get". I see more value in the SA220 / 330 but, it is actually less money. YMMV, Steve

Just read your post since I am in the market for a linear PA. I was thinking of getting the Bose L1 compact with the T1 tonematch. Do you think that would work? Has the T1 been discontinued? Or is it better just to get the model II with the T4 tone match? I think there is value to being able to expand even if there isn't currently a plan to do so...what do you think?

Do you have the tone match with your L1, model II?

In band situations were the Compact might not be powerful enough, we just run a mixer and a pair of powered speaks for mains and use the Bose on stage as a general monitor. This works very well for me. |
