[Hardware] This is my second L1. I run them in stereo from the mixer. Vocal, upright bass, keyboard and drums. Clear and clean sound.

[Hardware] Clarity and powerful. I watched a few reviews on the Bose L1 16 Pro. I picked up one and absolutely love it. You can pump this speaker at full power and no distortion. I'm so impressed with the speaker I plan to buy another one in the future.

[Hardware] I’m completely satisfied and impressed with this product. I’ve always trusted Bose so my expectations were very high and this sound system has blown mind mind.

This is exactly what I was looking for for my living room to be used on my karaoke parties! So I’m not a audio engineer or something like music technician. I’m a piano and guitar player, and amateur singer (take that in mind).

I’ve only used it in my living room so far, but I’m very confident that whenever I need to use it in my backyard won’t be disappointed.

The quality of the rever effect on microphones is like no other for a compact system like this. I’ve tested an electro-acoustic guitar and sounds great !

[Hardware] 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.

[Hardware] 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] Perfect for small and medium venues. Plenty of power great base for a full sound. I would recommend adding the tone match for added inputs and ease of adjustment.

[Hardware] I have been using the L1s for well over a decade, around the building in spaces large and small, and outside for gatherings of all sizes. The brilliance of this speaker in delivering consistent sound to people anywhere in the room is hard to capture in words, other than 'magic'! This new version manages to pack the same robust sound into just 8 speakers, seriously reducing the footprint of the previous model, as well as solving some of my issues with blocking the bottom set of speakers with a chair on the previous model. The wireless capabilities are taking the old remote control onto a new level, and I am very excited about bluetooth addition.

[Hardware] This speaker is banging, it no joke great fits for quick and easy setup for small bands and portable DJ. With no feedback . Worth the $$$$

[Hardware] L1 pro 16 is can plays music & karaoke all in one , easy to move its every where you want because it's just 1 piece , its excellent sounds & powered bass ! It's replaced my old system with 2 speakers, 2 speaker stands, 1 amplifier mixer, 1 equalizer, subwoofer & bunch of cables

[Hardware] Perfect sound and fast delivery
