I've decided (after watching Cap and others jealously for a year) to go with the L1's (two double base packages) and am doing an additional bridal show to show them off on April 15th. They'll be arriving on Tuesday.

This is my ad for the bridal show book, let me know what you think. -Aaron

Again maybe it's just me...... but do Brides & Groom's really make decisions based on equipment??.....or is that something thats important to us "DJ's" ??
 
Jim,

My experience has always been it didn't matter what I took as long as it was loud enough to carry the party. It didn't matter if it was a JBL box or a Peavey box.

I think it has a whole lot more to do with the DJs perception of themselves. Sort of like the guy who thinks, if I have a really nice car I will get laid, problem is even with a nice car he still can't get laid. Yet the guy who has the game has no problem even if he is driving around in a beat up 1968 ford pickup truck.

DJ Gray - When it is equipment that they have been "trained" to think of as high-end by a brilliant marketing team, then yes, I truly believe it CAN tip the scale in favor of one DJ over another.

Of course, as always, your mileage may vary...

BTW, the ad looks very good, Aaron! :sqwink:

Gray, that is so true!

When a supposed "groom" asks me about what type of equipment that I use.....RED FLAG-- RED FLAG --RED FLAG Guess what---Its another DJ who's shopping me!!!

My JBL Eon G-2's and B-52 ACT-18's have been lauded at actual events by my customers as the "best DJ system we have ever heard".

Yes, my clients DO APPRECIATE the high quality audio equipment I provide.

But PROSPECTS don't really care much about equipment, except maybe to know that its not home stereo and you have backups.

I like your promo Aaron, clean, simple and effective. :)

FWIW; Bose is a recognized name for most consumers, it may help sell on name recognition alone.

Yes I will agree there...my Home theatre system, car systems are all Bose. What I would probably have said is something like, "employing the latest in music technology, for your... special day"
Might be to long but somehow tieing the add... back to them, and what it will mean to their party...... ??
I just don't think that your DJ equipment that you own is one of the major focus's of a (B&G) party@ a bridal shower.....again Bose are fine pieces of equipment, and do have "Name recognition".....is it relavent????
 
I made my decision to include Bose as part of my wedding marketing because of IMAGE and SOUND QUALITY. Brides and grooms are certainly aware of these two issues and they are certainly connected to the Bose name in the consciousness of planet earth circa 2007.

I am not interested in impressing other DJ's or "selling based on my equipment." I am interested in impressing my clients and fulfilling my own desire to do the best job possible. In my opinion both of these are enhanced with the amazing sound quality that Bose has (IN MY OPINION).

If you don't agree with my conclusions or point of view, that's fine. I didn't ask to have the Bose argument recycled for the millionth time.

I am a little disappointed at the lack of self control some people have when it comes to piping up to say something rude or negative about this subject, and if you think I mean you then I do.
 
Please all,,, let's tread lightly here..... Aaron has asked for thoughts and ideas on his ad, not his purchase....
 
Chuck and Aaron

The problem as I see it Aaron is not in your add I think it looks great but the fact is your whole post was about Bose, why start a Bose thread and then complain that it isn't about Bose. If anyone doubts this fact please read the heading and the first post by Aaron.

The general perception of Bose in the consumer world is not as great as many here seem to think. But regardless most DJs do use pro gear, not consumer grade, no matter how good it may or some think it sounds.

If it was me I would turn the one line in your add from

"Featuring Bose" to "Featuring the best in DJ entertainment"

To me this says a whole lot more about the DJ than I am my equipment!

Aaron,

This post truly scares me, I have owned the exact same system you have 2 L1s and 2 B1 modules. I do know what they sound like and for a DJ who has been in the business to make a statement saying I made my decision to include Bose as part of my wedding marketing because of IMAGE and SOUND QUALITY. truly scares me. What kind of sound did you have before Bose? I bought the Bose system because of IMAGE I got rid of it because of sound QUALITY or the lack there of (my own opinion)

Your first post was about nothing but the fact that you bought a Bose PAS system, and the fact that you were going to try and use it to drum up business (because you think it will sell to the Brides and Grooms) My thought is wouldn't it be better to sell based on your talent than on what you own?
Which is what the "laid" post was all about!
 
I like the ad.

I've said it before...Bose has done the marketing, you can reap the benefits.





Did you get a special price by telling them "Paul Harvey sent me?" ;)
 
Looks good but I'd rather see a pic of a dance floor or bride and groom instead of yourself.
 
Steve: This might surprise you, but I DO NOT LIVE UNDER A ROCK.

Do you think I have never heard you or someone else say that the "general perception of Bose in the consumer world is not as great as many here seem to think" ?

I have read your threads about your experience with the Bose. I thoroughly APPRECIATE you taking the time to share your experience and your opinion.

That being said, I have made my own decision based on MY EARS and my own free will. I don't agree with you. I think the sound is fantastic, and I intend on marketing to weddings based on this.

I've heard your points on the matter (many times) and I respect your point of view, but I really think you would do better for yourself if you could somehow resist the urge to vomit your opinion everywhere anytime that four letter word is mentioned.

I will continue to chat here as long as I am able to be polite and respectful to others and others will do the same for me.
 
Attention BOSE L1 Users: Q&A Time

If anyone trials the L1 system used for a mobile DJ application and primarily bases their objection in the lack of bass and this was all you knew:
..the exact same system you have 2 L1s and 2 B1 modules.
Click to expand...
as a friendly non-other equipment dis'er, what two steps might have you have suggested to this dissatisfied user as possible means of improving his/her sound?

This is a test! No joke.

For extra credit, what specifics might you use to back up your keen observations?
 
Cap,

Why don't you post the frequency response from the Bose PAS and we will discuss it in detail and compare it to the specs from Pro sound gear.

Then we can compare red apples to red apples instead of road apples!

Aaron,

I thought we were discussing your ad! My thought was that it would have been better if you had featured your talent instead of a stereo system.

If you didn't really want opinions then why did you ask what we thought?

I mean I wouldn't have even commented at all if you had posted what you are saying now.

I bought the Bose system and I am going to use it in my advertisement. I am not asking for comments on it I just wanted you all to know!
