Product Description

Redefine the way you experience live sound with the L1 Model I from Bose. This compact PA system employes the very best in Bose innovation and features their proprietary Spatial Dispersion (tm) technology to product clear, deep textures. Plus, it has a more uniform sound coverage pattern than virtually any other system available. Combine that with the highly advanced yet intuitive onboard mixing options, and you have a portable system with unsurpassed functionality and quality. Ideal for mobile DJs and bands, and any institution in need of a PA system that can do it all, the Bose L1 Model I Basic Package is an elegant solution for all your live sound needs.   



Immerse Your Room in Bose Quality Sound


Like the rest of the L1 series of portable line array systems, the L1 Model 1 has earned high marks for the overarching clarity and fullness produced by the distinct line array configuration. With a single L1 Model I on stage, every nook and cranny of the room is filled with rich sound, which each performer and audience member to share in the same sonic landscape. Walk from one side of the room to another and the sound remains constant, as if you’re wearing headphones.

Onboard Mixing with Advance Presets


The Bose L1 Model I system features four input channels running through the line array of 24 precise drivers. In addition to two basic line inputs, the first two channels integrate Bose ToneMatch (tm) presets to enhance the signal coming through the combo 1/4-inch/XLR inputs. The ToneMatch system has been meticulously crafted by the engineers at Bose to develop and catalog specific EQ settings for a diverse set of audio sources. With the L1 Model 1 onboard ToneMatch system, dialing in the ideal processing setting for your input is as simple as punching in a number. Using an SM57? There’s a selectable preset to maximize its qualities. Plugging in a Rickenbacker 4003? There’s a preset for that too. With 100 presets at the flick of a button, the Bose L1 Model I gives you the tools you need to craft a detailed and rich tonal picture, highlighting every nuance in your mix. Additional connections include channel inserts for external processors and effects, a bass module out to add a Bose B1 bass module to the system later, a digital data out for recording options, and even a Bose R1 remote control.





Durable and Portable Package


For all its versatility and range, the Bose L1 Model I Basic Package remains, at root, a portable PA system. The package includes carry bags for the larger components and this lightweight system can easily fit in the truck of a car. The intuitive design encourages speedy assembly-- simply stack the line array enclosures into the power-stand and you’re done. You don't need a single speaker cable to connect this powerful system, which makes this a great choice for schools and houses of worship where inexperienced people might be assembling the system.



Features:


- Bose Spatial Dispersion (tm) technology for an immerse sound experience like no other

"L1, When You Want The Best"
Sound: Hey, what can you say...It is BOSE, baby...The sound is awesome and the way it radiates throughout the entire room is superb...With standard two speaker set up you get a cone of sound and lots of dead spots...With the L1 the 24 arrayed speakers will fill the entire room evenly...Seriously, even in a far off corner the sound is replicated perfectly...I am a party DJ and I would not be without my L1 ever again... Feature: The key to the L1 is the ease of handling...Three separate components and you pack it and are on your way...The tower is in two segments and the base (amplifier) is the third piece of the audio puzzle...You get a connected remote (a tad bulky, but functional)...Less weight means less wear and tear on this old DJ when it comes to set up and tear down...Gotta luv that BOSE l1! Ease of Use: So esy to set up and then use...Manual is short and concise...You have three tone controls for each channel on your remote and you can easily dial in the best sound for each set up... Quality: BOSE, 'nuff said...Plus travel bags come with the gear and are sturdy and easy to load and handle... Value: Not cheap, but worth every penny..Now I see that they have deals now and again...Every buck you put into the L1 will come back to you in quality sound and performance... Manufacturer Support: Have not had a lick of a problem, so I can not say how BOSE will handle any problems...No doubt they have support with the same quality of service that they build into their gear... The Wow Factor: Different look than other sound systems...You'll get comments wondering how a tower can create enough sound to fill your space...Heck, I've used it in big rooms and the L1 has performed without a flaw... Overall: You can spend your hard earned dollars on lots of audio gear...Why not just jump over the rest and get the best...The BOSE L1
