In the world of portable audio, Bose remains a Bose S1 Pro+ review leader in innovation. The original S1 Pro changed how buskers work on the go, but the new Bose S1 Pro+ takes things to a whole new height. This versatile PA system is engineered for singer-songwriters who refuse to compromise on audio performance and convenience.
See why this is the best portable PA speaker available:
One of the most immediate upgrades of the Bose S1 Pro+ is the newly integrated OLED display system. Unlike the previous model which relied on simple knobs, the S1 Pro+ features vibrant digital screens on the side panel. These screens automatically rotate based on how you position the speaker. If you have it on a stand, tilted back, or laying horizontally as a floor monitor, the information stays perfectly readable.
Going Truly Cable-Free: As shown in the video, the S1 Pro+ features built-in **wireless receivers** for channels 1 and 2. This allows you to ditch the cables entirely by using the optional Bose wireless transmitters. What is even better, the speaker includes dedicated storage bays that power up your transmitters directly from the speaker battery. This seamless design ensures that your setup is clean and ready to play for your next gig.
Sound Quality and ToneMatch Technology: Even though it is lighter than the original, weighing in at only 14.4 lbs, the sound is bigger and bolder. It features a high-excursion 6-inch woofer and a trio of 2.25-inch high-frequency drivers. With the help of **ToneMatch technology**, you can fine-tune the EQ for vocals or acoustic guitars with a quick setting. The intelligent sensors constantly monitors the sound signature to suit the environment, providing perfect audio no matter the venue.
Battery Life and Versatile Connectivity: If you are playing outdoors, **battery life** is the top priority. The Bose S1 Pro+ provides up to **11 hours of unplugged playtime** from its lithium-ion battery. Aside from its long-lasting power, it offers extensive connectivity. You get two XLR/quarter-inch combo inputs, a 3.5mm jack, and seamless **Bluetooth streaming**.
