BOSE L1 Compact

The L1® Compact portable line array system: Carry it in one trip. Set it up in one minute. Fill the room with Bose sound.

The L1® Compact system combines conventional PA and monitors into one sleek unit. Positioned behind or to the side of a performer, DJ or presenter, it delivers wide, even sound coverage throughout the stage area and audience—even off to the extreme sides. It's our smallest, lightest, easiest-to-set-up L1® system, weighing just 13.3 kg.

Big sound. Small package.

Now you can have quality Bose sound for almost any gig, event or occasion. The L1® Compact system is small enough to fit in your trunk or back seat, and its innovative modular design makes set up easy and fast. You can arrange it in either a collapsed configuration for smaller spaces or a taller, extended configuration for larger ones. No extra gear to carry. No heavy speakers to hoist onto stands. No speaker cables.

A different loudspeaker

The L1® Compact system's slim loudspeaker distributes sound clearly and evenly throughout the room, thanks to Bose Spatial Dispersion technology. The speaker's unusual vertical shape makes it distinctly different from conventional PA speakers―and has a very positive effect on sound coverage. Even audience and band members off to the extreme sides hear the same clear, tonally balanced sound as those in front.

The L1® Compact loudspeaker array is smaller than those in L1® Model 1S and II systems, but it produces comparable horizontal sound coverage. L1® Model IS and Model II loudspeakers project sound further with less dropoff of volume than the L1® Compact array.
