    Sounds petty, but i just don't like the look of them.

    I've heard them, as my mum sung with her trio at some venue where they were using some. They sounded nice, i just don't like the look of them.

    the idea behind them is to be unobtrusive - and provide correct and audible volume levels throughout the venue -

    i reckon they would be best suited for weddings and corporate events where image is everything- but i can't see a problem with putting them out for a 18th birthday party or something similar.

    Have you heard them?

    There isn't a great deal of bass and they definately wouldn't cope with any loud R&B etc.

    surely though in such a case you would choose to use 2 extra Bass modules per L1, so 4 bass to 1 L1

    You haven't heard them then....

    I know people who use these system and say that even 4 is not enough. It's not the right kind of bass for that type of music or event.

    well, in that case i think i would safely revert to my backup PA of my Prosound 15 inch cabs with a 1000w amp..

    don't like or carry much R&B - or Rap [sic]

    unfortunately i've been unable to get a demo of the L1s - await that in the new year

    I've heard them in several different surroundings and the clarity is stunning as is the dispersion. If you are just doing small to medium venues and mainly corporates and classy weddings, then I think the look and sound is spot on.

    However, if you are doing anything with big beats and lots of bass, I reckon you'd need different subs as these just don't go low enough or have enough oomph IMO.

    funny you should mention that, I do aim to tap into the wedding and corporate market - because very few companies in Edinburgh specialise in that sort of side of things - there are about 4 very big multi operator companies who have a lions share of the party nights.

    i don't feel i can confidently offer a proper service like that until i have the correct gear - so am picking up party work wherever possibl at the moment to fund purchase of new equipment.
