    I do not possdes but I was already heard throughout a wedding, and it's not movais at all, the sound is good, it is in need reinforcement in the bass; to send its size.
    But his deserves no 10 For it is expensive, and there are prices of concurrency ...
    It's really great for providers working alone, and their only goes up stuff.

    Not aggressive and screaming (not engine compression)
    Low attachment to feedback (handy for use in return)

    Original & unique design, nice look
    Discount little time for resale
    on the other hand, if you want more power: + subwoofer crossover "Bose" mandatory

    I use a pair of 802 II with correction for 5 years. They serve me back foot bath voice.
    I had before DIY wedges feature a 12 "and a compressor.
    They are driven by an old yamaha 2X300 watts very good.

    The sound is awful, very medium, without body, very pleasant to listen to. I added a graphic equalizer in addition to the correction and I can get something a little more correct. My old returns were much better. A benefit of the "Bose" little space, light, indestructible.

    -How long have you been using?

    I just bought two 802 and 802C II. I use it already for 3 consecutive days for dubbing groups and DJs, but each time coupled with a sub.

    In particular, I am with a concert in a large hall with about 200 people, in which I took up the entire plateau (ie 1 + singing choirs, 2 guiatres, bass, 2 OH + bass drum and snare) and c 'was perfect.

    -Did you try many other models before buying it?

    Yes a lot, Mackie, JBL (EON, JRX 115), RCF, L Acoustic (115 and 12XT), dB Technologies (Opera), Yamaha (C115), DAS, Audiophony ...

    -What is special that you like most and least?

    -What is special that you like most and least?

    They are excellent, I love the sound definition, not aggressive, well-rounded bass, and wide scattering angle. The weight is also very nice, as well as their small size, and the cover for the transported.

    I blame just the fact of having to install special support for them on foot, but I learned that they could drill to install a base.

    -How would you rate quality / price ratio?

    Although they are a little pricey, but the quality of this place is amazing.

    -With experience, you do again this choice?

    Yes definitely! I already buy me a pair of more use to back, concerts or large sizes ...

    I use a pair of Bose 802 SERIES 1 2 years (purchase).

    The diffrence between the two sries is that the two are SERIES "Tropic" and therefore better rsistent moisture and then progress as the processor between the two s ries and filters the signal for the sub, so if you want to use a sub, the processor must SERIES 2.

    Bose is the most clear intelligibility of the signal, and its lack of agressivit (yet often contradictory CRITERIA most Systmes audio). Typically "public address".
    on the other hand, a lack of real serious: these speakers are clearly made for voice. To see a sub (by a process controller Bose, Obviously).

    Bose is the most clear intelligibility of the signal, and its lack of agressivit (yet often contradictory CRITERIA most Systmes audio). Typically "public address".
    on the other hand, a lack of real serious: these speakers are clearly made for voice. To see a sub (by a process controller Bose, Obviously).

    So widely used on all types of groups (rock, jazz, trad ...) does not ncessitant serious, example: when the bass amp adj powerful enough, like 150W or 200W. I use them all the week on this kind of config Caf'Conc ', and does it well: no need to make people deaf, you just take back the voices and the bass drum (which also immediately a kick on the standard Bose without forcment ncessiter of aglisation).
    Evidemmment in confrence is going great right now: there is a little better, but so much more!
    on the other hand, to rap and DJ lespresta, it is better to forget!

    The RAPORT qualitprix is ​​OK, when the sutout achte used. They are virtually indestructible, even when monitoring the state of hp and do a test. NB: the processor Bose is almost essential, and greatly limits the damage that may be caused to hp.
    The Bose are rputespour robustness.

    This was also what made me the prfrer their competitors: ElectroVoice SX200, Tannoy T12.
    The Tannoy are neutral, but dlicates rgler, and a processor ncessitent home or long knowledge of legalization, I had the opportunity to test the Bose ct: you plug the Bose and rings, while the Tannoy, you think there will be a job! For cons, the Tannoy poustoufles me because I had heard on a concert (in return for scne) and it sounded as prcisment as studio monitors? Logical, since these are monitors i12, with a cutaway body!
    The inconvnient is that the coax is gnial but it is fragile, and as t The series was stopped by Tannoy sr it is to find the hp replacement ... And it is less known than ElectroVoice Bose sound system and has made less "pro" (ct look, not ct's, because the ct is the indniablement top).
    ElectroVoice tempted me too, because I also heard SX200 in Caf'Conc ', and his silent also equilibrated with real serious, and perfectly intelligible voice. probably a more natural sound than the Bose. But the rest of the 2-way with the problem of breakage of tweeters (distortion) and boomers (too serious).
    Bose uses broadband 8 hp (hp kind of car!) Per speaker, and contributes significantly to the Resistors bte ...

    In the end, I chose Bose for their robustness, the hood being protected them during transport, their scattering angle larger than its competitors (and thus a more homogne, and it can even happen back in Caf'Conc '), because you do not need to make them sound equalizer (you branches, and rings), and becaufe be found each month for sale in PA mag, and accessories (processor, sub, feet ...). And then there's a SAV Bose ct just from home. Finally, their look is especially IMMEDIATE "pro" people recognize the all-in-suite, and gives you the prestige crdibilit (was "class "!!!).

    Each day of use I confirm that I board made the right choice for my needs.
    They have the default of their quality:
    - Large dispersion: sensitivity to feedback
    - Lack of intelligibility and agressivit: curve rponse traffics, neutrality back
    NB: they are trs well back in scne Caf'Conc ', holds you in their cover as is prvu for smettre bainde not walk, you can even rgler the angle, and with their wide dispersion you are using only 2 returns and all-the-world means trs well!

    I'll buy the ending for ElectroVoice, to serve as back scne with Bose ... or vice versa, depending on the benefits!

    Going back to my comment on the use, it goes without saying that with one 11cm bass do not know ... unfortunately ... some have not understood all & push bottom on the grounds that it solid, which is why we hear often saturate & reviews on these speakers.
    I personally buy them for lack of efficiency & low dansles but I think this enclosure allows outdoor use (solid components) & space saving of interest (that's why we see it everywhere).
    To conclude, I put five mainly because of price but also lower performance but on these speakers have proven, are still very reliable & have a feature that others will not.

    I'll just say three words to the opinion of the speaker: a marvel!

    and a little aside for "dj ju sourisonic" below with whom I do not agree at all! the Bose 802 can provide a very impressive sound serious (at least for their size)! Provided of course use them with their own equalizer (Bose 802-E) .... otherwise it will not on that much in low ... But of course these are not speakers of Bourin to disco!

    I worked with several systems before and my conclusion was "Boses of 802, or nothing." But of course this is very subjective.
