So I got a quick sample of the Bose L1 today

Alright, if you wish to make a truly fair and complete comparison, you cannot ignore and discount system costs.

For $2499 you can get 1 stick and one B1. If you want stereo double that.

So for $5K you get a stereo speaker system with an amplifier rated at 500W output.

I own and can, with no fear of contradiction, opine that my 2 JBL SRX 715s ($2600) + 1 of my Crown 4000 XTi's ($1000) can outperform that Bose L1 system and for $1400 less...and the rated output is 1300W

If I add 1 SRX 718s ($1000) and feed it with another Crown 4K XTi, bridged and yielding 2400W @ 8ohms ($1000), I am only $600 over the proposed L1/B1 x 2 system but $10K better sounding.

Now you sound like Thunder.... so I say to you lets agree to disagree and live our lives in blissful naivety.
 
I did not know that the L1s were considered lightweight.I owned them for 2 years and the only difference to other speakers is (talking about weight)that the weight is in more pieces and at the end it is the same.

I mentioned in one of my posts that from my experience the L1 is more of a weddingsystem than a Party system.In that point i have to agree with Thunder.I do Partys with other systems I own.

You were talking about the bass from B1s? Hmm, There is no Bass if in the room are more than about 200-250 people.B1s can not do the same job as an 18inch Sub IMO.

And one more thing.
250Watts+250Watts are not 500Watts.Its still 250Watts but from 2 sources.

Bose L1 is NOT a`bad system at all. Its one of best systems i ever heard but I do not do many weddings and I already have a buyer for this system after 2 years.I need something with more bump for my Partys and Music which I play.
 
Well Rob,

I was only in this discussion because I like a good debate on the facts however if you want to continue on in "blissful naivety" :sqbiggrin: that's OK with me!:sqwink:

Marco,

two 10" mains at 28 pounds each with a single 18" at 85 pounds and a pair of Peavey DPC 1400's at 12 pounds each is 165 pounds, two L1s at 70 pounds each along with 4 B1's at 28 pounds each is 252 pounds doesn't seem like that much less weight does it!:sqwink:
 
Did you know that the hydrogen sulfide in our farts can actually reduce blood pressure?

Sorry it is the nitrates that do that by opening the blood vessels allowing more blood to flow through with less pressure!:sqbiggrin:

Hydrogen Sulfide exposure can kill you!
 
Not according to the Doctors.....

The unpleasant aroma of the gas, called hydrogen sulfide (H2S), can be a little too familiar, as it is expelled by bacteria living in the human colon and eventually makes its way, well, out.

The new research found that cells lining mice’s blood vessels naturally make the gas and this action can help keep the rodents’ blood pressure low by relaxing the blood vessels to prevent hypertension (high blood pressure). This gas is “no doubt” produced in cells lining human blood vessels too, the researchers said.

“Now that we know hydrogen sulfide’s role in regulating blood pressure, it may be possible to design drug therapies that enhance its formation as an alternative to the current methods of treatment for hypertension,” said Johns Hopkins neuroscientist Solomon H. Snyder, M.D., a co-author of the study detailed in the Oct. 24th issue of the journal Science.
 
an organic nitrate, is a vasodilating agent. The chemical name for nitroglycerin is 1, 2, 3 propanetriol trinitrate.


ASTDR

Hydrogen sulfide occurs naturally and is also produced by human activities. Just a few breaths of air containing high levels of hydrogen sulfide gas can cause death. Lower, longer-term exposure can cause eye irritation, headache, and fatigue. Hydrogen sulfide has been found in at least 35 of the 1,689 National Priorities List sites identified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).
 
Once again...

2 means to producing a similar result, that being vasodilation/normotension:

#1 - Pass gas, releasing Hydrogen sulfide = regulated blood pressure. Obviously, not producing a high enough concentration to be lethal.

#2 - Nitrates, i.e. transdermal ntg, tridal, sublingual nitro = regulated blood pressure.


Just a reminder - Don't go mixing your little blue pills (AKA Viagra) or other ED meds & nitro = possibly lethal hypotension

:sqerr:
 
Anybody have a lighter or match??? :D:D:D:D:D:D

LOL had that warning from my doctor, she ask me on every visit if I need the little blue pill! I don't know what her interest is in my (or my wifes) sex life is but my wife told her under no circumstance was she to give me any of those pills!

Apparently you haven't flown on a plane with someone who made a recent meal out of brocoli :sqbiggrin::sqbiggrin::sqbiggrin:

Damn near lethal!:sqwink:
 
And by the way if you have an erection lasting more than 4 hours.... call somebody else :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D

IF I have one that lasts an hour, I hope somebody catches it on tape.... :sqerr::sqlaugh:
 
See what happens when you start a thread about musical sticks??? It usually ends up being about another type of stick and physiological functions :D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
