Bose L1 Pro16

The Bose L1 Pro16 Portable Line Array was created for both ambitious musicians and event technicians. This state-of-the-art system combines impressive sound quality with unprecedented portability to meet the demands of live performances.

The centerpiece of the L1 Pro16 is its unique J-shaped Articulated Line Array. With 16 precise drivers, this arrangement provides a horizontal sound coverage of 180°. This feature allows the L1 Pro16 to ensure even sound distribution in medium-sized venues, making it particularly advantageous for small to medium-sized clubs, bars, and similar venues.

One of the most remarkable aspects of this system is the integrated subwoofer with its innovative RaceTrack driver. This configuration allows it to produce deep, powerful bass that would typically only be expected from much larger and bulkier subwoofers. Despite this impressive performance, the device maintains a compact and transport-friendly form, making it an ideal companion for musicians and DJs who are frequently on the go.

The built-in multi-channel mixer of the L1 Pro16 further enhances its versatility. It not only offers EQ settings and reverb effects but also phantom power and Bluetooth® streaming. The availability of the extensive ToneMatch preset library is another highlight, allowing users to find and customize the perfect sound for each performance.

Operating the L1 Pro16 is a breeze thanks to the intuitive Bose Music App, which enables wireless control via a smartphone. This app provides comprehensive control options, allowing the user to monitor and adjust sound quality from any point in the room.

For artists such as singer-songwriters, mobile DJs, and small ensembles, the L1 Pro16 offers not only expanded sound possibilities but also unparalleled clarity. Every nuance of the music is reproduced with precision and depth, contributing to an immersive listening experience.

The modular design of the L1 Pro16 ensures easy and quick setup, particularly advantageous for frequent changes of location. The fact that it can be disassembled into three parts makes transport and storage a stress-free process.

This system combines impressive performance with intuitive operation and a transport-friendly design to offer professional artists and technicians unmatched sound quality and flexibility. It is the ultimate tool for those who want to make no compromise between sound quality and mobility.
