Bose L1 Pro16 combines powerful sound, extended bass, and streamlined portability for medium to large venues.

The Bose L1 Pro16 Portable Line Array Column PA System strikes the ideal balance between power and portability, making it a strong choice for DJs, singer-songwriters, and small bands performing in medium to large venues. Its J-shaped line array design features 16 articulated 2-inch neodymium drivers, delivering 180° horizontal coverage with tight vertical control at the top and wide dispersion at the bottom. This ensures consistent sound projection whether the system is placed on the floor or on stage, giving clear and balanced audio to the entire audience.

For low-end reinforcement, the L1 Pro16 integrates a slim yet powerful subwoofer featuring Bose’s innovative 10" × 18" RaceTrack driver. This design achieves the same performance as a traditional 15-inch woofer while taking up significantly less space, making transport and setup far more manageable. Performers can enjoy deep, punchy bass without the bulk of larger PA subs.

The built-in three-channel mixer provides everything you need to connect microphones, instruments, and other audio sources. With two phantom-powered XLR/TRS combo inputs, 6.4 mm and 3.5 mm aux inputs, and Bluetooth connectivity, you can mix a variety of sources with ease. Illuminated rotary encoders allow quick control of volume, tone, and reverb, while dedicated system EQ presets let you optimise the sound for live music, playback, or speech. Additional channels can be added via the ToneMatch port, which connects seamlessly to optional Bose T4S or T8S mixers.

Control is even more flexible with the Bose Music app, allowing you to adjust settings wirelessly from a smartphone or tablet. Walk around the venue, make real-time changes to levels and EQ, and access the complete ToneMatch library of presets. The app and hardware stay perfectly in sync, giving you full command of your performance at all times.

With its professional sound quality, extended low-frequency performance, and ease of transport, the Bose L1 Pro16 is a versatile PA system built for performers who need both power and portability.

This is a legal requirement and MUST be paid prior to delivery in order to receive your goods. You will be contacted by the courier once the order is dispatched to pay the fee.

Failure to pay import tax when applicable will result in the order being shipped back to Audio Volt. Any returned goods sent back to us due to non-payment of import tax are NOT ELIGIBLE for a refund on the shipping charge.

Delivery Notes

On delivery, you must inspect the goods carefully for damage as Audio Volt is unable to accept responsibility for damage in transit, shortage of delivery or loss of products unless the customer advises Audio Volt of such within three working days from the date of delivery.

60 Day Returns Policy

We ask that you follow these guidelines to help us process your return as quickly and efficiently as possible:

  1. Please keep your order reference to hand. This confirms your original order and gives us the necessary details to authorise the product's return.
  2. Contact our Customer Services Team on 02476 369890 (or email info@audiovolt.co.uk). We will then send you an RMA number and a returns form, which needs to be completed and sent back with the returned item(s).

  4. When returning an item, please obtain a proof of postage receipt from the courier.

Returned items must be mailed within 10 days of when the RMA number has been issued. Items received with a post date 30 days after your requested return will NOT be eligible for refund.

Please note: our returns policy is quite straightforward, but there are a number of conditions that we ask our customers to comply with before applying:

  1. It is your responsibility to request a return. If you don't tell us you want to make a return, we don't know. Once you do tell us, we will do everything we can to action it.
  2. If you have not requested a return within 60 days of receiving an order, we will assume that you are intending to keep it, and we will not authorise a return.
  3. We always refund the payment according to how the original purchase was made and aim to do so within 72 hours of the return being received by us.
  4. Returned goods are liable for a restocking fee of 15% towards handling and repackaging if the order is not returned in its original, unopened packaging. This charge will be subject to our inspection of the returned goods.
  5. Delivery charges will not be refunded unless the delivered goods are faulty.
  6. Replacement products are dispatched immediately after the returned goods have been received and accepted by Audio Volt.
  7. Items that develop a fault within 30 days of delivery are eligible for a replacement or a refund. Delivery costs are also reimbursed for faulty items. Please contact our Customer Services Team on 02476 369890 if you believe your item has developed a fault.

Finally, please remember that notifying us of your intention to apply for a return, saving the delivery paperwork and keeping the order in its original packaging will help both you and Audio Volt to process the return quickly.
