The Bose L1 Pro8 system consists of eight 2-inch neodymium drivers housed in a vertical housing, all at perfect angles. The result is approximately 180° of even horizontal sound coverage, so the sound remains consistent even at the far ends of the crowd or the stage. With the Bose L1 Pro8, you’ll always hear exactly what the audience hears, rather than dialing in a stage monitor and guessing what the mix is.

 Small, lightweight, and easy to set up

Aside from its superb sound, the Bose L1 Pro8 system’s most appealing feature is its portability and setup simplicity. You won’t need to call for assistance just to get the system into the gig, nor will you have to go through a slew of cable connections and audio-testing stages. The Bose L1 Pro8 weighs less than 40 pounds and takes only minutes to set up. You may also select between two setup configurations based on the space you’re performing in: condensed for smaller spaces and stretched for larger venues.

Compact and sturdy, high-excursion racetrack driver

Compact and sturdy, high-excursion racetrack driverThe 7-inch by 13-inch Racetrack driver is one of the features that distinguish the L1 Pro8 as the most portable L1 system to date. Racetrack drivers are commonly seen in tiny audio systems and use an elongated cone shape to match the performance of typical circular speaker cones in a slimmer footprint. Bose has expanded the usual Racetrack driver design to give robust, room-filling low end from a small, portable footprint.

Built-in 3-channel mixer with lighted controls

The Bose L1 Pro8’s subwoofer features a simple 3-channel mixer with two 1/4-inch and XLR combo inputs, each with 48V phantom power for use with condenser mics, active ribbon mics, and mic boosters. The L1 Pro8 has 1/4-inch and 1/8-inch auxiliary inputs for connecting laptops and other audio devices, as well as Bluetooth support for wireless streaming. In low-light environments, illuminated digital rotary encoders for volume, bass, and treble settings are easily visible. Need more information? Not a problem! Simply connect a ToneMatch cable from a Bose T4S or T8S Tone Match mixer to the ToneMatch port on the L1 Pro8.

Two ToneMatch channels with perfect presets for singer/songwriters

If you sing and play guitar, the Bose L1 Pro8 PA system is ideal for you, yet its applications go far beyond that. The L1 Pro8 is especially useful because it has two of Bose’s superior ToneMatch channels. Bose includes preconfigured presets for a vocal microphone and an acoustic guitar, so it will sound wonderful without any adjustments.

L1 Pro Mix App and wireless audio streaming

The Bose L1 Mix App for Android and iOS devices allows you to travel freely while also controlling the L1 system wirelessly. This useful app allows you to alter settings, access custom ToneMatch EQ presets, and stream audio directly from your phone or tablet. As a solo artist, you can adjust a mix on the fly without having to leave your seat or lean down to use the L1 Pro8’s built-in mixer. For live sound engineers, the L1 Mix App allows them to travel the room and fine-tune the mix so that it sounds amazing no matter where they are listening.
