L1 Pro16 portable line array system

A balance of power and portability, the L1 Pro16 portable line array is a streamlined system with high output and extended low frequency range. With a 16-driver articulated J-shape line array, the L1 Pro16 delivers 180-degree horizontal sound coverage, great for small-to-medium sized clubs, bars, and other venues. An integrated subwoofer with a RaceTrack driver delivers powerful bass without the bulk; a built-in multi-channel mixer offers EQ, reverb, and phantom power, plus

streaming and access to the full library of ToneMatch presets; and the intuitive Bose Music app, formerly known as the L1 Mix app, places wireless control in your hands from your smartphone. For DJs, singer-songwriters, and small ensembles, the L1 Pro16 gives you expanded bandwidth and supreme clarity — the power to sound your best and simply perform.
