I have been using a BOSE L1 Compact system for some time now. Since I use this as the main PA for parties, I sometimes miss a second speaker when it comes to large spaces. That's why this speaker from Thomann caught my eye. Honestly: It's pretty close to Bose, they've thought that through. But what I don't understand is that a beautiful cover for the speaker is delivered but not for the bass cabinet. You have to buy these separately ... At Bose, a cover is included for both the Speakers and the Bass cabinet, but yes, the price difference is something in between. The sound is quite okay, there are some connections and it is possible to connect two systems in stereo. It is also strange that the budget for this speaker has increased by no less than 60 euros in less than two weeks. That is about 500 euros if you also want the cover for the bass cabinet. But all things considered, it's worth investing in this system because it's very portable and easy to use.
