B1 Bass Module / New: Difference between revisions

Line 3:

On March 29th 2007 {{Bose}} announced the [[Model II]] and the [[T1]]. At the same they change the specifications for the [[B1]] showing the weight as 25.1 pounds (previously 28 pounds).

~~Apparently the~~ updated version started shipping in May 2007 but there may still be older inventory in the supply chain.

The updated version started shipping in May 2007 but there may still be older inventory in the supply chain.

=== Differences ===

:The version 1 and version 2 B1 differences are minimal. They perform exactly the same, and look exactly the same from the front. The only cosmetic difference is that the handle on the 'new' B1 is reinforced plastic instead of metal, and the screws affixing the handle are slightly smaller. Only a trained eye can tell.

: The difference is small enough that theres no distinction in our internal system whether a B1 is the older version or the newer version - so your sales person will not be able to identify which version you will get (an aside - your sales representative may have been confused because other Bose products are sometimes available in an older and newer version for a short amount of time while the older version is being sold out - but this is only for major product updates). Our stage here in Framingham for all our high-profile press events and shows has a 50/50 mix of B1's old vs. new if that's any indication.
