[Hardware] You will not be disappointed! Hands down best decision I've ever made.

[M10] I love this kit! The footprint is only as big as the bass unit, so no cumbersome stand-mounted speakers to fiddle with. I like that there are three inputs built in, so you can do more with this version than you could with the previous version without also buying an external mixer.

I use this for acoustic guitar and vocals, both of which are first run through a TC Helicon. I know it sounds great that way, but have not yet tested it without the Helicon. With my current kit, I definitely sound better than I really do.


For now, this is set up in my dining room, and I'm playing for an imaginary audience. But as soon as I'm up for it, I no longer have the excuse that I don't have the gear to do a proper gig. I have other excuses, but am working on those, too.


Down side? The box was mangled pretty badly by the time FedEx made the delivery three days late, but nothing inside was damaged. For $1,800, it would have been nice for Bose to include a cover for the bass unit along with the very nice carrying case that was included for the stick speaker units. Also, I love the bluetooth remote controls that mimic the controls on the back of the bass unit, but it would be nice if there was a master volume control included. As it is, you have to adjust each input separately.

[M10] Great cover. Sturdy. Not padded but just what I wanted to keep unit from getting scratched.

[Hardware] These things are dirt simple to install. Remove three screws on each side of the mixer and replace with the longer provided ones. Very secure means of mounting to a mixer rack.

[Hardware] Used this product in a number of difficult acoustic situations. Very effective in highly reverberant spaces. Some bone head rocker sound people who don't get physics have no idea how these work so a scared of them 'because they don't have a horn'. Don't listen to those idiots - these speakers are great, and designed by one of the best speaker engineers that has ever lived!

[0.875 lb] Excellent sound from such small speakers. Really sound great in our sanctuary

[M10] Excelent!! I have no words to splain,,,,,thank. B&H

[M10] I just installed two of these, along with suitable wall treatments, in a gymnasium that was converted into a church auditorium. They perform great. The variable beam width and asymmetrical vertical pattern put the sound where I needed it and kept it off the walls and ceiling. Their size doesn't make them look like speaker arrays - they almost disappear into the room.
I added the low frequency extensions to fill out the spectrum. They ARE NOT rock concert speakers.
When properly installed in a space, they are a perfect solution to difficult sound control situations.
I would install them again in the proper application!

So called experts who diss them don't know what they are doing.

[M10] I had and old L1 Pro8 but this L1 PRo 16 is out of the world. I just use midle volume because is explosive with the best quality in the sound and the voices.

[Hardware] Installed 8 of these speakers in a church of 500 w/ balcony. Absolutely phenomenal sound. The deep feature is fabulous. Great tonality and clarity, with warm lows. Plenty of overhead power. Very pleased with this purchase. Thanks B&H
