After looking at the spec's Don, I don't think they will sound nearly as good, but I really don't know - specs never tell the whole story. Of course, at this stage of the game, with just two jobs left until full retirement, it really doesn't make any difference to me, or my audiences. Good luck, Gary

I think the 2 biggest factors with the Maui 5s compared to the compacts, are 1) price, $300 less, but if you already have the compacts then stay with them 2) the ability to tailor the sound a bit, you have a Hi-Freq control and a sub control, must people use a mixer or have that ability on their keyboards, but its always a good thing to have just in case 3) Bluetooth, now that can mean allot to some people and nothing to others, but it is a feature that is not found on the compact and also is coming in allot of other systems 4) your buying something from me

I can see using it out on a deck for let's say a cocktail hr wedding etc,....with the Maui 5 & just your smart phone music wireless, while your main sound setup PA remains on stage inside the venue ready to go when the affair starts,..also the Maui 5 covers are heavy duty, easy to remove & put on, zippered and well designed pockets inside for the poles, & accessories, for the system too.
