I wanted to tell you of my experience with the Bose L1 Model 2. My wife and I are children's Evangelist/ Children Pastors. Last year we did a V.B.S service in TN. We have a lot of toys. We Have a Martin Wizzard. We have 4 Colorstrips. A video projector. What did we get our most complements on? That's right the bose system. Not just for the pastor who invited us, but the kids. We had one kid say it sounds good in here! It did sound good.

We have used this system in our big church that seats about 450,The stage is about 2 feet high. and about 35 feet wide. I totally recommend the tone match. The sound from the laptop usb, is amazing!,and it beats there $35,000 dollar+ sound system. They have two big subs. The bose wins. Because of the coverage. Better sounding bass. I have 2 b1. It shakes the rails upstairs. I feel like that kind of room is to small for the bose. I think we can do a bigger room. We had an event for halloween and there was 500 screaming kids shouting to the songs. The bose handled perfectly. I love hearing what they hear. We use ev 767 mic. It sounds awesome. The only way we got feedback that night was, my pastor was like it will feedback if your to close to it. I told him get closer, he was amazed because he was only a foot a way from it. Then he took the mic and put it on the array, and it finally it feedback.
