Product details
The Bose Sub1 is a portable, self-powered bass module that integrates with virtually any portable PA system, extending low-frequency performance down to 40 Hz.
Its high-excursion 7 × 13-inch RaceTrack driver delivers performance comparable to a traditional round driver within a slim enclosure, helping conserve space on stage and during transport. As the more compact subwoofer option for the Bose L1 Pro32 system compared with the Sub2, it connects through single-cable SubMatch connectivity.
Multiple Sub1 modules can be stacked for additional low-frequency output or configured in Cardioid Mode for focused, directional bass performance.
