Bose F1 812 experiences acoustic gigs

[barth1234]

Hello all,

My (for now) lag topic in search of a PA system.

I would like to know who uses a single Bose F1 speaker for their acoustic gigs? What are your experiences?

I know it’s heavier than other options. I want to have good sound and be able to have / use enough power.

I've never used one, but a big selling point of this unit is its ability to physically alter the shape of the top array, for example aiming the top of the array up if you were in an amphitheatre or down if you were up on a stage with everyone below you. The EQ changes automatically to suit those shapes. I'm sure it has great sound but I've always thought if you don't play those kinds of spaces very often, you're paying for an expensive feature you wouldn't be using.
