Every flaw and over compensation in my old signal chain was amplified flawlessly.

Every flaw and over-compensation in my old signal chain was amplified flawlessly.

I assumed that the problems I was hearing were in the Bose System.

I eventually realized that most of what I had been doing was compensating for problems that ~~simply ceased to be issues~~ with the ~~new~~ System. It was like sprinting with crutches after the broken leg had healed.

I plugged outboard compression, EQ, and other compensatory devices into the {{L1}}. The result - same as above: Every flaw and over compensation in my old signal chain was amplified flawlessly.

I could now hear the problems being introduced in that chain and found greater presence and clarity by simplifying and drying out the sound. (~~dialling~~ back a lot on the reverb and delays).
