Customer Ratings & Reviews

a clear and beautiful clean sound without a single audio distortion the bass is excellent a unique volume capacity is the best option to enjoy this and every summer to the fullest waoooo what quality BOSE is your best option. Don't hesitate, you deserve it.

Like the earlier version, the Bose Sp pro + is a fantastic speaker. The sound quality is excellent and the over volume is good. The buttons are upgraded from the previous version and work seamlessly. In my my opinion, it has a high signal to noise ratio but I use it for a band setting and it doesn’t have an impact.

I highly recommend it, the speaker is very loud,the best sound quality

This speaker is very loud. Good clarity and base. U can't buy anything better than Bose.

Title: Amazing implementation of wireless PA Verdict. The Bose wireless PA system puts together a system that is portable, capable, and exquisitely designed. I am so impressed by the way the system blends new technology with the solid foundation of the S1 Pro speaker hardware. I love everything about it. It’s a home-run for me. Initial impressions. At first glance, the speaker looks just like the older S1 Pro speaker. Once you look more carefully, the face has rounded angles that make it look sleeker, and the back no longer has all the knobs and buttons due to the single knob and digital screen implementation. The speaker comes with a quick start guide and manual, and a power cord. Setup. The S1 Pro+ can be setup and used in many ways. If used primarily as a Bluetooth speaker, the Bluetooth setup takes just a minute, done through the phone settings, or using the Bose app. To use the S1 Pro+ as a fully wireless PA system, setup includes charging the speaker battery, connecting the wireless transmitters (see next paragraph) to the channels you want and letting them charge, and configuring the sound settings for each channel. To use as a monitor, connect the correct analog or wireless inputs into the right channels, tilt the speaker onto its side, rotate the logo so that it is horizontal as well, and start playing. Wireless transmitters. To take full advantage of the S1 Pro+, Bose has developed a Wireless Instrument Transmitter and a Wireless Mic/Line Transmitter. These two wireless devices slide into two slots on the S1 Pro+ speaker (one slot on channel 1 and one slot on channel 2), allowing them to immediately pair with that channel and charge wirelessly!! When you want to connect an instrument or mic wirelessly, you can just press the tucked-away transmitters and they pop out of their slots. As soon as you turn them on, they connect to the S1 Pro+ speaker and they are ready to go. The added capabilities from the wireless transmitters and their interface implementation with the S1 Pro+ speaker make the transmitters must-have accessories, and make this PA system exceptional in terms of portability, setup speed, ease of use, and performance. Sound. The lows are excellent, and mids and highs are perfect. The volume is plenty for most applications, and even at higher volumes, the sound stays sharp. True tone improves instrument and mic sounds once you figure out how to use it. The three-channel ability makes this system quite powerful for singing plus one instrument; with just a guitar and a mic, it’s a blast. Other standout features. (1) Auto EQ automatically updates the sound profile to match the current utilization of the speaker, whether used flat, tilted back, laying on its side (monitor), or on a speaker stand. (2) The speaker does not lose power if unplugged accidentally or on purpose. It looks like it always plays off the internal battery and just uses the power to charge the battery, so no interruption to sound. (3) When a channel is in use with a wireless transmitter, you can still use the physical input on the speaker to loop in an effects device. This worked very well in testing performed with a guitar pedal used on a loop through the speaker, instead of on the instrument side. (4) Live stream mode uses the speaker controls to adjust all channel sounds, and then passes a dual mono mix of all channels to the computer. The channel 3 volume acts as the master volume, without changing the channel mix. (5) ToneMatch uses preset equalizer settings for specific mics or instruments to accurately represent the sound of the instrument without hardware coloration. Design and implementation. I can’t say enough about the clever design of this system. First, it does an incomparable job at blending new tech into speaker hardware, i.e. digital display for each channels, wireless charging of transmitters, auto EQ, the Bose app, etc. Next, the design really takes into account the practical use of a wireless PA system, i.e. the storage slots for wireless transmitters so there are less components to carry around (and lose), also the mute button on the wireless transmitters mutes a channel without having to be close to the speaker. Battery levels are displayed on all three digital displays, with channel 1 and 2 for wireless transmitters, and channel 3 for the main speaker battery. I really appreciate the care that went into the design of the whole package. Things I love: - Great update to an already solid platform, incorporating convenient new technology - Fantastic sound, as you would expect from Bose - The speaker can get quite loud - Bose maximizes the wireless aspect of this system, allowing convenient use with little extra equipment and cables, and super easy setup - Lots of amazing features to push sound and utility (i.e. streaming) to the next level - The Bose logo rotates so that you can keep it horizontal in any configuration, cool! - The speaker does not lose power if unplugged accidentally or on purpose - Adding the compatible wireless transmitters to this system adds amazing capabilities to an already powerful system. I most highly recommend purchasing those as well. Things I don’t love: - I don’t love the large green “signal” light for each channel. Something smaller would be less distracting for me, and it would use less power when running on battery - I wish the Line Out output remained 6.35mm connection, like on the previous S1 Pro speaker - The only way to mute a channel is through the app (or the convenient button on the wireless transmitters). Overall, the Bose S1 Pro+ is an amazing wireless PA system and sound production platform. The wireless concept really takes into account the practical needs of people on the move. The wealth of features also enables great sound and flexibility in the use of the system. I love this Bose speaker, and I am most impressed with the wireless PA system, especially when matched with the optional wireless transmitters. Well done Bose!

Technology rarely impresses me to the point of telling friends and family about it. Within my group, I'm the guy who loves new tech products, so over the years, I've learned that my unsolicited suggestions go in one ear and out the other to those whom I talk to because I've spoken about my gadgets with annoying enthusiasm in the past. So now, I don't say much without answering any of their specific questions - until now. This BOSE S1 Pro+ wireless speaker is, hands down, one of the best pieces of tech I own. From the sound, the quality, and the features to the portability, this one is worth every penny of its asking price. You may ask yourself whether or not you need a "portable PA system," but I assure you, the PA feature is excellent! For example, one of my jobs, when I worked was to set up our business's audio when we were having meetings or parties. This would work perfectly for such an occasion. You don't need a stereo setup when you have this. You plug your mic in, and the max volume is well above what you need. Or maybe you attend a church or a group where there may be live music? Plug in an electric guitar like this is an amp, and voila, you have a speaker that can handle live music! It's pretty awesome! But let's say you don't need it for a PA or have a guitar to plug it into. Well, even without needing those features, you will love the sound of this thing. You can use it as a portable music player for your backyard, patio, AirBNB, camping, lake, park, or anywhere you think you'd travel. This thing rocks. I'm a huge audio guy, and usually, with portable speakers, you'd wish you had a sub to go along with it, but not with this one. Bose is a trusted company. They've been around since 1964 and have consistently been one of the best choices for audio needs. You can tell immediately the quality of this product. The knobs, the digital reading of the battery, and the volume. It's superb. A great touch is that you can use the speaker standing up or lying on its side. It has rubber feet to protect it if you lay it on its side, and depending on the orientation, the digital readings and lights of the volume and battery will rotate on the display. That's a small but fantastic touch and shows how much they concentrated on making this a premium product. It's heavy, but not enough to not be able to hold it with its built-in handle. The battery can last up to 30hrs! That's amazing. Some of my smaller portable speakers don't even last that long! If you're looking for a large Bluetooth speaker, look at this one. Yes, it is expensive, but with the features and quality, this speaker will last a very long time. There's value to products you'll use for the next several years!

In the world of pro audio we often find unconventional manufacturer names, some with home consumer divisions and many without. One name always seems to rise to the top, and is a brand trusted by so many in professional audio, BOSE. With this brand new S1 Pro+ product BOSE has managed to hit it out of the park. Even the unboxing experience touts quality. Pulling the unit from the box and seeing the BOSE logo on the front admittedly brought me good feelings. Even small details like the pliability of the 3-prong IEC power cable feels like quality rubber compound and not the run of the mill plastic on most consumer electronics with detachable cords, and convenient adapter style plug-in charging docks for wireless instrument and mic units. Simply click and they pop right out. It didn’t take long at all to have available battery charge to put this through the paces. Within minutes I’d switched the DirecTV analog audio output Y-adapter to 3.5mm from the JBL into the BOSE. Absolutely amazed at how much louder this is, even at close to minimum volume. Booming thunderous bass for that o “oh wow” moment. With neighbors I dare not even explore anything above 25% even at 6pm. Even at low volumes I’m hearing clarity that I hadn’t noticed on other speakers, actually thought the new Greta Van Fleet song I heard my wife talking trying to get my attention, only to realize it’s coming from the S1 PRO+ and I’d not heard it even after several listens on the iPad. If I were to nitpick, I’d comment that the bass makes vocals, even female, somewhat unnaturally boomy. Fortunately each of the 3 volume knobs is click button accessible that cycles thru volume, bass and treble. Inputs 1 and 2 line level and instrument level adds reverb control, aux Bluetooth does not. Playing music is rich and clear, promoting a feeling of limitless power based on the visual indicator of the volume control. Sound projects far out into the yard from close to 100 feet away. One thing I really like is that you do not need a separate mixing console, it’s got a built-in 3- channel mixer. All 3 inputs are hot (active) too so it’s useful if your busking or playing one person shows live to have the backing track playing over aux 3.5mm or Bluetooth, your instrument on input 1, and vocals over XLR on inout 2 with independent reverb and volume control. This is also configurable within the app for alternate EQ profiles and instrument selections. Before even getting to the conclusion, let me say this… this BOSE S1 PRO+ is a real winner !! I cannot recommend this product strongly enough!! Pros + Svelte design + top carrying handle + pliable 3-prong IEC cable + Crystal clear Audio quality + integrated 3-channel mixer + battery life better than expected + USB-A and USB-C charging ports + included Wireless Mic / Line Transmitter + included Wireless Instrument transmitted + ch 1 and 2 modes, Vol, Bass, Treble, Reverb + nifty plug-in USB-C charging system for each + Mini LCD screen showing Volume of each channel + modular design that seems to imply replaceable batteries + incredible distortion-free high volume capacity *(read: LOUD) + deep sonic projection , tested 100 feet with a lot of room to spare + inputs are all active without a mixer board, so you can play guitar or keyboards over backing tracks Cons -only 2 instrument level inputs plus 1 3.5mm Aux / Bluetooth, compared to 4 on JBL’s EON ONE -bass is strong but voices are overly boomy -slight stutter on Bluetooth after power disconnect -highly directional, front radiating for best sound -you’ll probably want another one for a stereo pair Cautions *multiple placement configurations is super nice, something my JBL does not offer. BUT when laying on its side make sure to twist the BOSE logo counter-clockwise, as clockwise felt like it was going to break. *the orig S1 Pro manual lead me to download Bose Connect, but contacting support the S1 Pro+ uses the Bose Music App, very useful to get the most from this awesome product. Conclusion : if it was not immediately obvious this thing is a must buy if youre a musician playing outdoors and like deep bass and high volume. It even makes an excellent wireless outdoor speaker you can take to the beach or pool and blow away the tiny tinny handheld speakers that seriously lack sound quality for 80% of the brands I’ve tried. Recommended Strong Buy

I have only just tapped into the endless possibilities & features with this speaker. It is amazing! The sound is clear & crisp, we use it for rock band practice & it’s impressive. It can be used as a monitor & with the wireless transmitter for mic & instrument it works great.They have their own storage on the back of the speaker which is also a charging port & they are hidden for compact travel . Mic can be plugged in directly to speaker & you can sing with music, would be good for karaoke or a party also. When using as a monitor & in wireless mode the line in plug works as an insert/effects loop. This connected very easily to Bluetooth & sounds excellent with vinyl records & iPod. Also can be attached to a stand, this is loud even at half volume! Features digital settings instead of analog for bass, treble, volume & reverb. On the back there are 2 1/4” XLR input, 1 auxiliary input, Bluetooth, 1 USB power source, 1 USB-C out for computer/recording device, 1 XLR live out to link to PA or another S1 speaker. I have not tried to see if I can link it to Bose music app so I can control it from my iPad, hopefully that feature will be available. I have an older model of the same speaker & thought that had a lot of features & great sound but this blows that one away!

Small, portable PA with digital indicator panels for the volume levels but still physical turn knobs. Designed to balance standing at straight vertically or tilted at an angle to aim sound. Handles are placed in good locations to make carrying the PA easy. Can use XLR or aux input cables, or Bluetooth. For live sound, I didn’t try Bluetooth due to the risk of lagging, but playing music off my phone for a background track worked really well. The Bose music app made setup extremely easy, as you literally just follow the on screen steps and the app readily located and connected. No hassle. Sound quality with a Shure SM58 and my Taylor 414 hooked up was great. Loud enough to use as an standalone unit for our small congregation. At home, I hook it up so my son can use with his electronic drum set. Connecting the e drums is as simple as plugging in an AUX cable (cable not included). The box does include, however, wireless adapters for mic and instruments. Small unit with big clear sound I expect from Bose, I am very happy with how this unit carries and performs.

So far so good! It's very easy to comnect through phone (bluetooth), very loud (I can definitelyhear it in between rooms/walls even at low setting), easy to charge, and long-lasting. It also has a handle on top so you have an easy grip- given that it's quite a bit of weight. Overall, amazing purchase.

I’m posted overseas in the Dominican Republic, so I needed a portable speaker to take with me to the beach - a common thing to do here in the D.R. When I say I couldn’t be happier with my purchase, I mean I couldn’t be happier with my purchase. This baby is loud and clean with plenty of thump! Our area is always the life of the party. If you’re thinking about buying one of these, stop thinking and go out and purchase one today. You won’t regret it!

This speaker has amazing audio quality , amazing bass and can also get very loud , it is not so big so it is cery portable and if you are in need of a portable loud speaker for conferences or music this one is good

Bought this one towards the end of November. it’s a super crisp crystal sound. I don’t know if I’ll be good for rap or rock but almost any genre that you throw at it will play it beautifully not a whole lot of bass but I’ll definitely get loud. Liked it so much that I returned it and then I went with its bigger brother. That comes with a sub on the bottom. Lpro8

I primarily use it for acoustic guitar and vocals. All of which sound rich and full from such a little package. The volume is more than enough for what I am doing. I've owned lots of musical equipment over the years but the simplicity, portability, and sound quality out of this is game changing fun.

Incredible sound quality it beats the JBL encore partybox with sound quality and volume , bass just not as low frequency.I recommend keep it at default bass treble at 12 clock.Can even get more oomph by place speaker near wall or corner of room.At a regular park i sometimes feel like 50 pecent is too loud.I think it has enough if you dont want spend fortune always rent subwoofer when you want throw party but for house listener its way more than enough.

Couldn’t be happier with my purchase of this Bose Bluetooth speaker. I bought it as a “music” machine along with which I play my electronic drum kit which is in turn, run through a small PA system. The speaker can be played quite loud without distortion. In short, it is perfect for my drumming experiences down in the man-cave. Thanks Bose and thanks Best Buy!

Great product, bring it everywhere with me. Very loud and adjustable. The best part is the rechargeable battery.

Amazing sound and quite loud. The battery life is impressive.

Great sound and loud . I also seen same one that street performer used in austin and lots in las vegas. I also connect to my tv for sound and of course with my phone. Gretlat buy and great sound from Bose.

The best wireless speakers and loud, I take it any where it last long if you used loud volume
