I've been using these for my full band (3 vocals, guitar, bass, drums, percussion) for about 3 years now. Two columns upfront and one column at the back. All instruments are electronic including drums & percussion. Works great, especially volume control as we can setup and play for small intimate occasions to large parties

You really do need to hear it to believe

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am a wedding DJ and this has completely changed my game. These things are unbelievably easy to setup and they really do sound incredible. The only issue I had with them was being able to push sound through a crowd of 60 dancing wedding guests. The sound ending up getting a little lost and I found that the speaker was peaking a bit due to how high I had to turn it up.
IF I could currently afford a PAIR of these... that would be a different story ;) but I was just using the single town and sub combo. I later paired this with an 18 inch sub from a different company and that seemed to help.
It would also be nice if there was a native XLR input on the speaker base in addition to the 1/4in input.
It pushes SUCH an even wall of sound into a space when played at moderate volumes, it really is incredible. When I become rich and famous this with absolutely be my home entertainment system ;)

Total rock band sound!

We're a three-piece rock band. Purchased an L1 Model II w/B2 bass to use for acoustic gigs. Ended up buying another to power our electric (rock) shows. We daisy chain the two systems and run vox/drum mics thru a mixer to the Tone Match and guitar-bass run direct to the TM. Only outboard gear is the guitarist's modeling amp head. The sound is amazing and it replaced the complete powered PA we'd been using. I'm going to buy two more B2's for max bass thump. Club owners like the great tone at lower volume levels.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I am very happy with the clarity of this system! It’s hard to describe the sound from this but I can say it’s easy on the ears and even when it’s loud it don’t cause ear fatigue. The sound is rich and it definitely gets plenty of comments on how it looks and sounds. Bose is ahead of their with this unit. It’s super portable and sleek and it comes with nice carrying bags.

Most Reliable System in 45 yrs/Wedding/Events DJ

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought (2) Bose L1 model II speakers - ( 1 for left channel/1 for right channel) in 2014. Here it is, almost 10 yrs later & this Beast it's still performing like brand new. I get many compliments from Brides who are grateful my Sound System doesn't take up 1/2 the Reception Space. (6X6 is all I need) It's clean, sophisticated & very professional! Another quality All Clients appreciate. I mostly do higher-end weddings, with up to 500 guests & I have never had "too little" quality sound coverage. Ever.
As for performance, every DJ in history has dealt with everyone complaining, "It's too loud! I can't hear who I'm speaking to." RIGHT? I have a photo of the President & Vice Pres. of an MLB Team, standing directly in front of one of my speakers while the dance floor is literally jumping up & down to the song. It was thumpin' loud enough to move the guests & quiet enough so they could hear one another. VERY clean sound!
About time to invest in another set, just for confidence. The new ones can be a backup in case something EVER happens to my Bose.

Superior Sound!

The L1 Model II is the most articulate sounding sound system I've invested in. The bass is very clean and not boomy. The mids and highs is unmatched in sound reproduction. Excellent product with superior sound and I'm extremely happy with my purchase.

Excellent Sound, consistency. Breathtaking looks

Every time I speak into the mic, it makes me smile. There is a bigness to the sound that L1 systems create that conventional speakers can't reproduce, even above this price point.
This is an ideal solution for musicians and DJs. It is a bit much for use at home but if you need your music excessively loud, this one is for you.
