i don't have a problem with any Bose equipment. I do have a recommendation:
I'm a working musician (at least 200 shows per year) and own all the bose products above (except F1's, which I'm considering getting soon).
I play many large events (weddings, outdoor/other parties) and some of the events required me to link satellite speakers using wireless routers/transmitters so that I could project sound from the mixer (i.e. linked S1's on the other side of the large room with my L1 Model II so that sound could get to that audience as well).
I shouldn't have to buy other products to do this.
BOSE should have an communications feature (whether wireless ethernet/bluetooth, etc...) where ALL Bose PA's can communicate seemlessly for an event.
I should be able to link my t8s/t4s to my L1Compact, L1 Model II to satellite S1 Pro's and or F1's and get plenty of coverage over a large area.
But ... a lot of thought would have to go into how it would be implemented! There are so many issues to consider:
Would you envision every speaker being a receiver only, and every mixer being a transmitter only? What about the devices with their own mixer sections (L1 Pro, S1 Pro, Compact) -- would they need to have both transmitter and receiver, depending on whether they were the slave or master? How many speakers would you want to be slaved from one master? Do different speakers need to have the option of getting a mono signal, or "left" & "right" signals in a stereo configuration?
What kind of range do you need? Bluetooth is generally limited to 30 feet, line-of-sight, and has a delay between transmitter and receiver.
If you use wireless technology like that used in Shure, A/T, Line 6, etc., what frequencies do you use? If you build a unit capable of using all frequencies, is it legal in every market or country Bose sells to?
If you use frequencies in the 2.4Mhz WiFi band, are you sure you can get a clean channel?
How much would added technology drive up the cost of each device? A single performer or someone just starting out would be paying extra for built-in wireless they may never use, or would turn to some other manufacturer's product at a lower cost. Also, would Bose need to develop their own wireless technology ($$$), or license it from other manufacturers ($$), i.e, reinventing the wheel?
That's just a few questions to get the discussion started. Are there any other manufacturers doing or developing this?
Ideas like this can get creative juices flowing. I remember when the office wanted WiFi for the executives; then they wanted better WiFi security; then they wanted employees to be able to use it on every floor; then they wanted reporting; then they wanted to provide separate WiFi for customers while in the office; then they wanted, wanted, wanted, etc. Pretty soon there was a massive mesh network and countless dollars spent. Did the productivity go up? Sure. Was there enough return on investment? Still waiting to see.
