Subject: RE: Tech: Powered satellite speaker
Hello,
Question, How long is a "long venue", I ask from the perspective of someone considering the Bose L1 for a 3 piece rock covers band.
Does the Bose sound fall off more slowly, enough to make a noticeable difference?
They [Bose] say that the L1 would have 10 times more power than a traditional speaker at 10 meters, if the both produced the same SPL at the source. That being said, do you think a traditional speaker capable of 2500watts((power x10)for mids and hi's)would reach the back of the hall? I understand B1 bass modules have the same fall off as any other sub.
Bose indirectly tout that there system will produce volume and coverage equivalent to traditional systems many times it size and power, do you find this to be true?
p.s. sorry to get off topic
