Think of the Bose System as your entire signal chain, ~~(this is a lot simpler)~~, and ~~then~~ listen. That is:

Think of the Bose System as your entire signal chain and listen, listen, and listen. That is:

* ~~Just take~~ your input (a mic is a good place to start) ,

* Pick a sizable space ''(not your tiny basement practice room)'' and start as simple as possible.

* Choose the appropriate preset on Channel 1

* Take just one input ''(a mic is a good place to start)''.

* Set the gain (see the manual)

* Choose the appropriate preset on Channel 1.

* Turn up the volume and listen

* Set the gain (see the manual).

* Work the tone controls on the Remote to tweak what you hear

* Turn up the volume 'til it sounds pleasantly loud and listen.

* Work the tone controls on the Remote or the ToneMatch Audio Engine (T1) to tweak what you hear.

* Once you are used to how the L1 is for you as a "stage monitor", get someone else to use the source ''(play, sing, whatever)'' and go out to the "audience area" and walk all around.

* If you want to add effects or processors add them one at a time and listen carefully at each step along the way.

* Accept that you will sound different, but much better.

* Aim for "it sounds like me, only louder."

If you ~~want~~ to ~~add effects or processors add them one at a time and listen carefully at each step along~~ the ~~way~~.

If things go poorly and you can't solve it, go straight to the forum for help.
