I wanted a portable system with low weight and as much volume as possible without any boxes weighing more than 20 kg. The latest version 2 delivers just that.
I use the MAUI 28G2 for playing solo gigs with electric guitar (Helix LT), singing and playing backing tracks (bass, drums, keys). I upgraded from the MAUI 11 Mix, which I didn't think was loud enough for Rock/Blues gigs.
You will be surpriced how loud and clear this unit sounds! The amount of bass coming from that little sub is amazing and the line array spreads the sound in the room in a pleasant way that requires you to play with less volume as the sound travels deep into the room. After switching to Line Array, I have no need for a monitor either, I just place it next to me.
Compared to the Bose L1+B1 that I used before, this unit is faster to setup, better looking, below half the price and not that much behind in sound quality.
