Warning: possibility of excessive DRY humor here. Sarcasm? Never!
Regarding the S-1 pro speaker. I have two of these units so my disappointment is easily doubled. The sound from the S-1 is very, very good. For me. I do understand that because they are made by the Bose company no one likes them. I am thinking I may remove the logo and affix a more accepted name. In all honestly, I have have had a difficulty with one of mine, got it dealt with, but It still sounds nice. I understand that this manufacturer (and honestly, MOST manufacturers) failed miserably by not including EVERY SINGLE feature known to mankind with the product. Would I like a few changes? You bet I would, but I can learn to live with the poor design. I bought the first one I heard, not understanding that no master volume, Matt black finish and the lack of a 7 band EQ was a deal breaker. NOW, I know better. I would sell both of them but I don’t know if I could live with the guilt of foisting such a disappointing device onto fellow members of this site. I may hide them in my storage shed until I can figure out how to dispose of them without negative ramifications. I may be stuck with them, but I am the only one to blame here.

No offense meant here, just one of those peeves I guess. If I had more friends I could vent with them instead of burdening you folks. But I don’t.

Thanks, and have a perfect day…..

One of the most eloquently written pieces on this forum. I think I will skip the S1 consideration all together and probably pull the trigger on the Turbosound iP300 or QSC CP8 instead. Thanks friend, call me any time haha!

Thanks for the well crafted and hilarious commentary. Since I play my Taylors through my S1 my time as an accepted AGF member is likely limited so I wanted to post quickly before my privileges are revoked.
