Hi Rachael,

If the Bass is all-important to you, go back and check out the older Bose models in that lineup that feature the separate subwoofer setup.

s for the Compact system, the pricepoint is much better, the portability is -- to me -- the big thing and of course it is a tradeoff, but for many of the smaller gigs I feel it is a tradeoff that I could live with...

(If not, I would add my own subwoofer system somehow, which would likely be a warranty voider if there is no built in Line Output from which to derive the signal. But I would first shake it down as-is for a good while to see if I couldn't live with it.
