YES!  The Bose L1 Pro range has a subwoofer.  Depending on which model, the subwoofer is either built into the power stand, or a separate active sub (the Sub1 or Sub2).

Take a look at the differences and what the unique subwoofer design looks like.  Read more here.

Even though each L1 has multiple little speakers inside, technically the L1 Pro is a single speaker system.  This means is can only ever be a mono speaker.

But – what if you’re sending a stereo signal to it, or if you’re running two speakers?

There’s quite a bit to this topic.  Read the simple breakdown explanation here.

It’s possible to wirelessly stream to the Pro8, Pro16 or Pro32, or S1 Pro+ wirelessly via Bluetooth – either a single unit, a pair in stereo, or a combination of any two of the speakers.

Download the Bose Music app available in the iOS Apple store for iPhone or iPad, or Google Play store for Android.

From there, just follow the 5 step instructions here for connecting your L1 Pro or S1 Pro+ for mono or stereo wireless Bluetooth streaming.

You can use the ToneMatch T4s digital mixer with a stand-alone power supply and connect to any powered speaker system, not JUST the S1 Pro+ or any of the Bose Pro range.

But utilising the included ToneMatch cable and connecting to an L1 Pro8, Pro16 or Pro32, you can power the T4s without a secondary power supply, and there’s no need for an audio cable between the L1 Pro and T4s either.

Read the full step-by-step guide on how to connect your ToneMatch T4s mixer with the L1 Pro range in mono, dual mono, or stereo.

If you want to connect your Tonematch T8s to the L1 Pro8, Pro16, or Pro32, you just need a couple of Ethernet cables.

You can run a single L1 Pro in mono, or a pair of L1 Pro, S1 Pro or F1 812 in either stereo, or dual mono (daisy chain).

Does the Bose L1 Pro8 have reverb?

Yes, reverb is available on the L1 Pro8 (and Pro16 and Pro32, the S1 Pro and S1 Pro+ as well).

You can adjust the reverb on channel 1 and channel 2 on the L1 Pro8, or you have even more control if you connect the T4s or T8s Tonematch mixers.

The Bose L1 Pro range is the current generation of L1 portable line array systems.  Just as the L1 Model II eventually replaced the Model I and Classic, the L1 Pro system replaces the Bose L1 Model II, L1s, and L1 Compact.

The Compact is and always will be a reliable, powerful and super portable little speaker.  Although it’s no longer produced or sold new, it’s great for small venues, smaller crowds (up to 50 guests), and perfect for DIY wedding hire systems, etc.

Bose L1 Compact vs Bose L1 Pro8 Comparison

The newer Bose Pro8 portable line array has even more features: 3 input channels, Bluetooth, wireless control via mixer app, T4s and/or T8s input, and of course more bass, and more power.
