L1® Model II
portable line array system
Key Features
• High-performing, powered, portable two-way loudspeaker system with
a 195° H x 0° V nominal dispersion designed for the production and
reproduction of live music, music playback, speeches and A/V sound
reproduction
• 24-driver articulated line array loudspeaker technology produces
wide, uniform sound coverage throughout the entire listening area—
even off to the extreme sides
• Consistent front-to-back coverage, 24 drivers mounted in a vertical
line array produce little drop in sound pressure level per doubling in
distance than a conventional point source
• Retractable folding leg mechanism for easy transport
• Lightweight, interlocking components
• Expandable bass design supports the use of multiple B1 bass modules
or a single B2 bass module
• Digital Ethercon port provides single-wire connectivity for the T1
ToneMatch audio engine
