Preamps Classic & Model I

L1 Model IL1 Classic

Tom Munch, a regular contributor to the Bose^® Pro Portable PA Community has prepared this list of posts about the preamps in the L1™ Classic and Model I.

• Cliff challenges us to compare the mic preamp section of the PAS with anything out there.

• The preamps in our system should be a delight for any studio engineer, including for vocals.

• The onboard mic preamps are pretty spectacular and the presets make commonly-available microphones sound very natural over our system. This is way better than just using your mixer for everything.

• We also made sure the system had great mic preamps. These are analog and are so good that some studio experts are using them for recording, even independent of the system.

• The mic inputs on your power stands are very high-quality, musical-sounding preamps.

• The mic pre's are really good ones, recording quality. Compare them to anything. You'll be amazed how they stack up to tweakier high-dollar units. We worked real hard on this and we're happy we did.

• The mic pre's, by the way, are the darlings of many studio engineers and we're really proud of them: lots of headroom, sweet-sounding, quiet.

• Our mic pre has been put on a very high pedestal re: tweako sound quality...

• I spoke to our electronics wiz, Dan Pearce, about this. (Dan designed the beautiful mic pre in our system).
