There are three 250 watt RMS amps inside the system. The tower is in two segments and each is powered by 250 watts for a total of 500. The sub is powered by a separate 250 watt RMS amp. Peak power is rated at 1,400 watts, which is more than enough for most venues.
Tonight, I played a very difficult location, one where I have used both the Logitechs and Barbettas. The problem I always encountered at this particular location was I play in one room and the audience is in another and the sound most pass through a constrictive opening that has a poor configuration for moving sound into the next room. For the fist time in the two years since I began playing there the there were people dancing and singing with me at the other end of the other room. All the comments from the audience were very positive. I'm still not sure if I like the sound quality as much as the Logitech Z-5500, and I have another job to do next week that may tell me wheter or not I keep the Bose PAS.
Overall, the vocals are superb and I sincerely believe in this category the Bose out performs anything on the market. The quality of the styles comes through fantastic, but there are some instrument sounds with the right hand voices that I'll try tweaking a bit more to see if they can be improved.
Just another fun day in Paradise,
Gary
