Worked closely with musicians, sound engineers, concertgoers and instrument makers to better understand problems that get in the way of good live sound. This is the ongoing research that led us to a new type of loudspeaker—and opened up exciting new possibilities for live music
amplification.
Our L1® portable line array systems are at the heart of this new approach. Advanced tone-shaping technologies, available only from Bose, make it easy to get the sound you want from any voice or instrument. And once you've dialed in your tone, the L1 system's exceptionally wide, uniform sound coverage helps fill the venue with sound in a way no
conventional system can. All from a compact, portable system that takes only minutes to set up and tear down.
More than just a new type of speaker, L1 portable line array systems represent a new approach to live sound. One that allows performers and listeners to experience your sound, the way you want it to be heard. Here's how they address many common problems of live amplified performances:

Conventional speakers—particularly guitar amplifiers—tend to be very directional in one tonal range, with a sharp beam of on-axis sound and a duller off-axis sound that is very broadly dispersed in all directions (including up and down). L1 systems spread the sound at nearly 180 degrees, for uniform coverage and smooth, consistent tone
