I recently bought the L1 and the compact and use them together with the double bass pkg. On the advice of a friend I passed on the Tone Match engine and intead bought a small passive mixer. I have a five piece band with drummer, bass, two electric guitars and acoustic. I was really skeptical that the system would have enough punch to cut thru all the noise on stage. I've been hauling around tons of equipment for years and finally decided to give it a try. I couldn't be happier. No you're not going to play a stadium with this system but so far I've never been dissapointed. We've played rodeo dances and fairly large outdoor venues without a problem. Our set up and sound check time is a third of what it used to be and we no longer have to use a trailer. Mission acomplished Bose! I don't know how you get so much sound out of such a small system! I'm very pleased and would highly reccomend it. My only complaint is that the cords for the bass units are too short...and they're very expensive to replace.

Overall this is a great product. The price is a little hard to swallow, but the value is really outstanding. It is a great investment.
Sound
Used the item outdoors for a wedding with about 150 people. The sound was easily better than any other PA system I've used in that situation. The LII's resistance to feedback really helped when micing people and made for a very natural sound.
Features
T1 remote very extensive and helpful. Good sound and processing. Little bit of learning curve to use all the features, but it gets you up and running with minimal effort.
Ease of Use
By far the easiest to move and quickest to set of any PA I've used.
Quality
Everything was made very well and felt solid and well designed. You can tell they put alot of money into the engineering.
Value
A little expensive, but totally worth it for a DJ who wants a simple and attractive setup, or for an idiot proof PA.
Manufacturer Support
Haven't had to deal directly with Bose, but I was impressed by the solid design of the product.
The Wow Factor
Very sexy PA.
