The Samson unit has big sound. Way beyond any other bluetooth speaker. It can easily fill living room or a decent size event room. You won't use 10 percent of its amp in a living room. I use it with a bass somethings and it boardens the sound even more. Awesome little speaker with huge sound.

I returned it after two or three days. It didn't produce near the volume I expected. I love Samson products, but I couldn't use the Expedition Express.

Used it as a PA last week in a church hall and it sounded real good. Even played music from my iPhone and it filled quite nicely. One person even asked me to turn it down.

I use it to play jazz and it's pretty good for that. I've also plugged a keyboard into it. I normally plug a humbucker guitar into the -15dB input. Throw a decent compressor or a tube preamp in front and it warms it up a bit but keeps a good clean tone. It's nice because I often play both bass and guitar and can get by with just one amp. The really sturdy closed back cabinet means that it's got some authority. I wouldn't use it for rock, though, as the tone wouldn't be good

I have tried it with a P-bass. The cleanest sound was distorted. No bass type bottom end. Turning up the gain made a grainy hi-mid distortion. Not really usable for anything I would play or practice with. You can hear your notes so it might be of use to some players.

The volume was pretty impressive to me for what the speakers are. I found that you loose the full tonal range at lower volumes so I pretty much just crank it to full volume all the time and that is what I would consider a medium volume. It's good for a small living room or a bedroom. It also has audio out on the backside so you can add an amp and speakers to this system if you really want to crank it up and keep the neighbors up!

Bass speaker works fine....the entire set up is more than sufficient for 400 or so sq ft room.

Chad,This is an over kill!!. This powered sub bass is more for live DJ, Bands, clubs etc. not for home use.

Yes, I have the same model and it amplifies it about 3 times my opinion and the bass is insane with it!

The bass is pretty good. Not $100 headphone quality good, but still powerful enough to satisfy.

Thats not a problem... All you need is a XLR to RCA Cord and you solved your problem. But thats a lot of bass for home theatre depending on the size of the room.

Without the sub the bass is really non existent. Truthfully with the sub it's not bad. I don't think anyone would notice unless its cranked all the way up.

Either would work fine in a small room..the bass is fully adjustable on the Bic..so you can adjust it to suit the room. I think the Bic would have a big advantage if you decided to move your sound system to a larger room ..you can adjust the bass up and the Bic can bang a large room VERY WELL..Ive had mine for several years now in a 23x 25 foot living room..it works fantastic.

The bass is phat! You don't need an amp as long as you are playing from a decent source (iPod, etc.)

Don't expect "Bass" from anything other than a Subwoofer! As for a solid midrange and midbass....yes, this is a good sounding speaker!

I think you'll be very pleased with this unit, for a little sub I was very surprised with the power, totally compliments my system, you can adjust the amount of bass you want as well! Good choice!

I've done it, gives the guitar a lot more low end and lower midrange than you would get from a guitar amp. Absolutely terrible for a band situation as the guitar won't cut through the mix but kind of an interesting sound if just practicing alone. I actually think it sounds kind of cool for low volume bedroom practicing.

I would check three things.. is there enough bass.. is the sensitivity adjustment correct and is the master / slave switch in its correct setting. Mine came with it in slave mode and I had to switch it to master.
