I decided that I want something new for my cocktail hours. I haven't used line/column array speaker systems before, and figured that it would be the better choice for spreading music around around a room/area. I have been using a Bose S1 Pro at most cocktail hours, or the American Audio ELSGO 8 BT. I try not to use the AA speaker because it's sound is just so poor. I use the Bose S1 Pro at most of my ceremonies, so I usually tear it down and head directly to cocktail hour with it and a speaker stand. Sometimes I pre set up the AA speaker, but I try not to do that just because I prefer for cocktail hour to actually sound good lol.
So I decided to purchase the Harbinger MLS1000. For those of you who have heard the MLS900 before, this newer system they came out with is a big improvement over it. This speaker system is very clear. I can see myself using it along with another one as a main system for a smaller party or wedding! It packs a lot of bass out of the 10" SUB.
I listened to it along with the Evolve 30 at Guitar Center. This puts out more bass than the Evolve 30. It's also like 95% as clear as the Evolve 30. I mean the Evolve 30 is a bit brighter, and really hits those high notes. Nothing against the Evolve 30 at all. The EV Evolve 30M has a very nice crisp sound to it, but this Harbinger system won my heart
Harbinger has come a long way over the last 10 years and have stepped their game up.
It also MAPs for $699 vs $1,299 for the Evolve 30. I also found this speaker ON SALE from Musiciansfriend.com for $200 OFF. It is only $499.99 right now! I told Guitar Center about it being on sale at Musiciansfriend.com, and they matched the price for me. So I bought it at Guitar Center and took it home.
I also like that this comes with SPEAKER COVERS in the boxes! The Sub Box comes pre packed in the cover. The two Columns come pre packed in a nice, thick carry bag!
$500 and it comes with covers! This imo is a great deal! I also have a nice sized tax deduction for this year. (I am running out of stuff to buy since I have everything I need)
It also works with my ALLSEES Battery Pack! So I can use it for an outdoor cocktail hour, or ceremony as well! Bluetooth paired right up from my phone in 1 second. I was impressed. It is a tall column too! Stands about 6' tall.
I did do some research before I went and made the purchase. I watched this video comparison by this guy who owns both the MSL900 and the Evolve 30M to give me an idea of differences between the two. He also does a sound test.

Then I watched this review and sound test on the MLS1000 from Expert Island. This guy even takes the grills off, and shows you what the drivers look like along with a sound test.
