I have had 2 S1 Pro for a few years now and they have been great. I am mostly solo acoustic guitar singer/songwriter. I do also have a Bose F212 that I can also use for larger areas and still use my S1’s as well to spread the sound. I do not plug straight into the speakers as I use a mixer for my inputs and send out to the speakers through the mixer output and that way if someone wants to join (vocal, guitar, harmonica, etc)i it is easy to plug in and mix. If I am playing somewhere when power is not easy I also have a small BEHRINGER mixer (1002B) that can also run on battery power and even using phantom power for my vocal mic (Shure KSM9) it lasts for the whole night (1 9v so easy change if needed). Great speakers and I have no need to upgrade. Besides that I am old and this is easy treble/bass knobs and I get the sound close and then just fine tune from the mixer anyway. I don’t need to upgrade but Bose is great product and will be happy to upgrade if my S1 Pro’s ever fail. Enjoy!
I have a pair of the original S1 Pro that I use mainly as floor monitors in conjunction with a pair of L1 Pro8 and an Allen & Heath SQ5, I roll the bottom end off a little when using them this way and they cut through nicely on stage… however when using them as a primary PA, it’s quite easy to bottom them out, there’s no EQ on the Bluetooth/stereo line in channel and it can be tricky. I think this will be one of the main advantages of the Pro+, that and the control app.
I like them both for different reasons. Most of the time, I'm still going to the original S1 Pro. I do like the wireless microphone and guitar transmitter options on the plus model.
I bought two of the Everse and sold them. I did like them. They were louder and more powerful. I don't necessarily think they're better, but as a preference, I like the Bose user experience. The LED on the Everse was a little more complex, in my opinion. Best of luck
I called Bose and asked them directly. They wouldn't give me an answer as to if it's more powerful. She said that there may be some technical upgrades that may make it appear to be louder. Basically, she was very vague and unhelpful. I know that if I set the volume of each speaker at the 12:00 position, the plus version is louder. I'm not sure if it translates to when both speakers are maxed out. I believe they're both rated at the same wattage and SPL.

i liked the first model cause sound adjusted by it self did not have to mess with eq
I agree. it's easier to adjust on the fly.
It sounds better s1 pro?

Hello! How much is the sound pressure SPL?
Maximum SPL at 1 m
109 dB
According to the website
hi what is best eq settings for channel 3 bluetooth treble and bass ? when i hear music and put it loud bass and treble sounds distorted please help
I think it depends on the music.
Typically, I start with bass and treble straight up at 12 o'clock and then reduce as needed.
Better than Everse 8???

In other videos they say it's not the difference in power, who to believe?

Maximum SPL at 1 m
109 dB Both speakers
Exelente
Not loud enough to cover 100 people. Even with 2 bose s1 pro plus
I agree, unless you're really just background music.
Otherwise, I run it into a powered speaker with a bigger speaker and more wattage.
No mid control thats why it sounds so terrible
Fair enough.
It's probably not a good fit for everybody, but it works great for my needs.
