Don't, it's only really suited for Guitarists who don't care about the fact the system is Mono. Your Pa900 produces a stereo sound. It will always sound best when listened to in stereo.
Listening in Mono really doesn't make any sense.

The headphone socket is for headphones. The Main Outputs L+R on the back are for connecting your Pa900 is external speakers / amps.

..I also use a Tyros 4 and over on the 'rival' PSR Tutorial Forum many of the 'Yammy giggers' swear by the L1c.... ?
Would it be better with TWO little (8 or 10 inch bass) active speakers like JBL's or similar ??
Want small and lightweight...that's why Bose was first on my list... _________________ Korg PA900 - Yamaha Tyros 4

..just to say..I finally decided to purchase the Bose L1c..arrived today and must say I'm really impressed. Stereo piano IS A BIT LACKING but overall the clean sound and balance is amazing. Did a bit of 'equalization' on my PA900 to get a full rounded sound and cam't wait to do a 'live' gig next week... should be great... well done Bose... _________________ Korg PA900 - Yamaha Tyros 4

No lows? Must be Bose.

I got into it a little with Bose. Modern keyboards should be stereo, but they disagree - whatever.
I used these things right when they came out and they were not good. There was a pronounced midrange peak and it was very bad.
However, I have been using the later versions and it's better. I use the one with a subwoofer and it's decent.
I still think modern keyboards should be in stereo when they have stereo samples and effects. _________________ Korg Kronos, RD-88, Yamaha VL1, Deep Mind 6, Korg Kross, author of unrealBook for iPad. |

.....after using the Bose L1c on a few gigs (50+ people) I too noticed the lack of 'something'....particularly the piano...which I use about 70% as my lead instrument.... definitely something missing....?
I ordered a HK Nano 300 (stereo) system on a 7 day trial return...and 'wow' ...what a difference.... The piano came to life...
Have now sold the Bose and and very satisfied with the Nano... _________________ Korg PA900 - Yamaha Tyros 4
