Smart Modes That Speak to You

Different styles of music require different bass tunings, and this unit's Smart Speaker modes enable you to tune the subwoofer output accordingly so you get the right amount of punch and kick for DJ sets, live rhythm sections, and so forth.

PA modes give you additional control over your sound. Reference mode, with a flat frequency response and maximum extension down to 30 Hz, lets you dial in clarity and articulation so your sub bass lines never sound read more muddy. High Punch mode helps kick drums and other low-frequency instruments cut through a mix.

Two playback modes, Extended Bass mode and Ultra Bass mode, make pre-recorded music and DJ rigs shine by accentuating the low end of the frequency spectrum at around 40 Hz and all the way down to 30 Hz.

Auto-Configure Your Speakers With L6 LINK

Set it and forget it -- thanks to L6 LINK digital networking, configuring a multi-speaker rig is super easy. Automatic detection of other StageSource speakers and automatic settings configuration means that the subwoofer's L6 LINK network sets crossovers and polarity, sums stereo signals, and more. It does all the work for you.

Plays Well With Your Live-Sound Gear

A trio of threaded pole-mounts allows you to integrate the powered subwoofer with other Line 6 systems. Work the StageSource L3s into your existing setup with StageSource L3t loudspeakers using a threaded pole mount insert located on the top of the enclosure. Two more pole mount inserts located on either side of the sub's enclosure allow you to array two L3t units together, for double the fun. Lay the powered subwoofer horizontally or use it vertically, whatever works for you.

Stereo inputs and out/thru connections give you straight-forward options for integrating the StageSource L3s into your setup with Line 6's L3 series speakers or other live sound gear.

Whether you need huge punchy kick and bass sounds for a live rhythm section, or deep, controlled sub-bass for DJ performances, Smart Speaker modes make setup simple and deliver stunning sound in every application.

Modes Include

PA modes - Optimized for live music applications
- Reference mode features smooth and powerful low-end performance optimized for use with a PA. With a flat frequency response and maximum extension down to 30 Hz, the L3s delivers stunning sub-bass clarity.

1,200-watt bi-amped design

Integration with your existing live sound gear is easy via stereo inputs and out/thru connections.

Digital networking via L6 LINK

L6 LINK digital networking takes the complexities out of configuring a multi-speaker rig. In an L6 LINK network, StageSource L3s automatically detects other StageSource speakers and automatically configures its settings accordingly; crossovers and polarity are set, stereo signals are summed, through signals are passed, and more.

When connected via L6 LINK, StageSource speakers and the StageScape M20d digital mixer are capable of unparalleled power and flexibility. Together they redefine the typical mixer-speaker paradigm and create an intelligent live sound eco-system rather than merely a linear combination of components.

Rugged construction

StageSource L3s was built with the road in mind. The heavy-duty plywood enclosure has three threaded pole-mounts to support multiple configurations with other Line 6 speakers. A solid steel grill.

This system is amazing, I have two L3S subs, two L3T tops, and the M20d. OMG!!! Have done a couple shows now with this system, had many friends in the business come out to our shows just to check this system out. The feedback I got from them was "They have never heard a coverband in a club sound this good". The thump from the kick, and the clarity of all the instruments is to die for!!! Also the coolest thing was the band playing a song for sound check and then I got off my drums and grabbed one of two Ipad's we had connected to the board and myself and my Bass player were playing back what we just recorded and mixed the band right there. People in the club were so confused because we just played it and now we were standing across the room and playing it back!!!! This system Rocks!!!! well worth every penny!!!
