Dr Amar G. Bose and his team have been on the quest for better sound through research since 1964 and have developed major technological innovations that have made them a household name world-wide.  With a deep seeded relationship with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Bose have provided high-quality audio solutions for the likes of NASA and the Sistine Chapel whilst also offering musicians a chance to hear their music the way it was meant to be heard.  The Bose L1 Portable PA Systems are no exception.

The critically acclaimed Bose L1 Portable PA Systems are the first choice for many performers of all varieties due to their ultra-portable design and uncompromised tonal reproduction.  Consisting of three models, Bose L1 Compact, Bose L1 Model 1 and the Bose L1 Model 2, there is a supreme-quality PA solution for every application.  Whether you’re a DJ, perform in a band or even if you’re a solo artist, the Bose L1 Portable PA Systems can accommodate your every need in delivering transparent and highly detailed music to small-to-large audiences.

Being line array in nature, the Bose L1 Portable PA Systems offer a completely different approach to live sound that eliminates the majority of issues one would normally find on a traditional PA system.  The Bose L1 Model 1 and Bose L1 Model 2 contain a column of tightly spaced drivers designed to project sound waves forward and nearly 180 degrees on the horizontal plane whilst also keeping vertical projections to a minimum.  This clever design helps to reduce elusive room reverberation that impacts on the clarity of your sound and also ensures that audio is delivered to your audience evenly.

Along with this, when used in conjunction with the Bose T1 ToneMatch Audio Engine, which is compatible with all Bose L1 Portable PA Systems, your sound is instantly optimized for delivery thanks to a wide range of presets developed in partnership with leading manufactures including Audix and Taylor.  Containing a variety of studio-grade effects, such as reverbs and delays, along with Bose’s own proprietary zEQ which differs from the generic tone controls found on most mixers as it is designed to bring the best out of particular instruments, the Bose T1 ToneMatch Audio Engine is more than just a multi-channel digital mixer and makes a performer’s task of setting up for a show incredibly easy and efficient, leaving you with more time to concentrate on the performance and less time fiddling with knobs.

Regardless of the genre or the instrumentation, the Bose L1 Portable PA Systems are ideal for anyone wanting ultimate portability with uncompromised quality.

We have all three systems on demo here at Millennium Music so come on down for a listen, you won’t be disappointed.

We've held off as long as we could, but sadly our Bose L1 PA system prices are going to have to reflect the new VAT rate. Bose L1 PA system prices will be rising as of the 1st March to keep inline with the VAT increase. So if you are thinking about investing in a better PA system and so would naturally be thinking of the Bose L1 then best let us know quick and place your order so we can hold the price for you.

Bose L1 PA systems come in many different formats so you can choose the best Bose L1 system for you. Choose either the Bose L1 Model 1 with the built-in Digital signal processing to give the best value OR choose the most popular Bose L1 Model 2 and add the amazing Bose Tonematch Audio Engine. The Tonematch Audio engine never ceases to amaze whoever hears it ! Hear it transform a "normal" vocal sound into a stunning crystal clear, dynamic shimmering sound that you'll make your jaw drop - it is truly amazing. Use any of the presets  for instruments in the Tonematchand hear them sound like they were being played from a record. It really is that breathtakingly good! If you don't believe us then come down and a have a listen for yourself. The Tonematch Audio Engine can be used with either the L1 Model 1 or L1 Model 2 but is better suited for use with the L1 Model 2.

StudioMaster have, since 1976, been designing and building pieces of high quality audio equipment that have made our lives in the music industry much easier. With products ranging  from mixing desks to PA speakers and beyond their all encompassing expertise lends itself to innovation and development that really stands out from the pack.

For this reason, when we at Millennium decided to design a killer PA Package ideal for bands and DJs, there was no one else we would turn to, and our first port of call was  StudioMaster's VPX range, well known for their perfect combination of sound quality, ruggedness and affordability.

Incredible VPX DJ/Band PA Package

With this sub £1K Band/DJ Speaker package you get enough power to really get the (small to medium sized) party started.

A pair of StudioMaster VPX15S Active Subwoofers get the ball rolling down to a bone rattling 39Hz, easily enough for the oomph of bass instruments such as kick drums and double basses, or even the incredibly bass heavy  electronic music of today. These are perfectly complimented by the crystal clear mids and top end of the VPX15 Active Loudspeakers, creating a full, powerful sound that, be it for use as a DJ Speaker system or a Band Re-enforcement system, will never cease to impress.

At Millennium Music we realise that when you get the a gig the last thing you want to be doing is faffing around trying to get the PA set-up,  which unfortunately folks, (unless you are lucky enough to have a roadie) is inevitable, the best you can hope to do is minimise it. To help with this, as you may have noticed, both the VPX15S Subs and the VPX15 Loudspeakers are of the active variety, removing the need and faff of additional amplifiers. This package comes with everything you need to set up quickly and easily, including all the interconnect cables and speaker stands to allow you to mount the tops directly above the subs.
