Question
Does the L1 Pro16 bass output compare with the L1 Pro Sub2?
Answer
Bose Professional: Yes, same 10x18-in RaceTrack subwoofer. Sub2 has additional acoustic volume, which helps it achieve lower tuning, but the L1 Pro16 has remarkable low end.
Question
Will the sub on the L1 Pro 16 punch as hard as a B2?
Answer
Bose Professional: While the B2 is an amazing bass module and sounds fantastic, yes, the Sub2 will punch as hard (harder) than a B2, and is tuned lower. You will hear things that B2 cannot replicate.


Question
How does the L1 Pro16 compare to the L1 Model II?
Answer
Bose Professional: The L1 Pro16 was designed to be a replacement for L1S + B1 bass module, and it significantly outperforms it. However, performance-wise, the L1 Pro16 does veer into L1 model II + B2 territory.
L1 Pro16: 118dB cont, 124dB peak, 42Hz - 16kHz (-3dB) vs. L1 model II + B2: 115dB cont, 121dB peak, 40hz - 12kHz (-3dB). As you can see, it is comparable, and subwoofer performance of the Pro16 is surprising. The L1 Pro32 + Sub1 or Sub2 will be the true replacement for L1 model II.
