I'll be curious once the reviews start coming out, how this Nano 600 compares to the 300 (which a bunch of people own and have written about). I like the idea of such tiny "satellite" (mid/high) speakers, as long as the total system has good bass response and good projection and clarity ... (and reasonably light weight!)

Both the Bose and the Nano systems which I have owned all of them require too many pieces to set up especially using two in stereo. If your gigging every day & many times twice a day, in and out of venues,...setting up breaking down besides all your KB, stands, wires, mixer, etc, etc, it becomes an annoying burden. I wanna get in and out fast.
For my needs Two good Powered speakers like the yamaha DXR series, or QSC is the way to go setup, simple math,....
2 powered speakers 2 stands....vs Bose 2 subs, 4 poles speakers, which at floor level cannot go over the top of the crowd just sayin'....or Nanos 2 subs, 2 poles, 4 satellites,....If your a frequent gigger I cannot enforce more to really look at these concerns before your purchase to make sure,...and in my assessments using all of these speakers the drop off MYTH is just that. Aside from that they will all do a good job to a point.

Donny, get a roadie.:)

Years ago on tour doing BIg Oldie Show venues we had a few roadies....ahhhhhhh it was heaven! ....
walk in, turn on, & play, leave.

Big difference when your all alone as a OMB giggn every day'

Good points ... presently I use either a Yamaha StagePAS 500 (I like having the mixer right on my keyboard rack) for for larger gigs, two FBT Maxx 40a's which are very powerful and clear. For rare gigs I add in a BagEnd subwoofer, but not too often these days (becomes too much gear to want to set up!)

I'm always on the search for "small and lightweight" (but still good sounding and powerful enough), but thinking about the # of pieces to carry in and set up is a good point too ...

Thanks,
Jim

Watching this demo...All the NEW features, inputs & versatility alone of the Nano 600 blows away the Bose Compact,..not a slam on Bose just let the truth be told.
Unless Bose has a newer design up their sleeve to stay with the competition.

NAH! Maybe you should look at the specifications again. Narrow dispersion range of sound, significant falloff, not a contender with Bose.

The Bose compact is NOT a cure all by any means....
I wasn't convinced, but hey, to each his own.

I think we can all agree that the two of you will never agree on this subject ...

The best endorsement of any product is how many others compare theirs to it. Funny, but when someone tries to sell AWAY from Bose products, or endorse another line ... it just reinforces my choice. To date ... NEVER, ever had the response that I get from my L Series stuff. The last great thing I used was the early 800/900 series in the 70s/80s - revolutionized my sound.
