BOSE SUB2
Overview
A powered, portable bass module, the Sub2 subwoofer combines with virtually any portable PA and delivers low-end performance down to 37 Hz. Its unique 10” × 18” high-excursion neodymium RaceTrack driver allows for an ultra-slim enclosure, delivering performance that rivals traditional round drivers without the cumbersome size, freeing up room in your vehicle and on the stage. Compared to the Sub1 subwoofer, Sub2 is the more powerful subwoofer option for the Bose L1 Pro32 system, combining seamlessly via single-cable SubMatch connectivity. You can stack multiple Sub2 subwoofers for even more low end — or to unleash Cardioid Mode for directional bass. With a Sub2, you get a subwoofer that easily fits onstage — and effortlessly fills up the dance floor.
FEATURES
Pair with other powered loudspeakers via line input and output with selectable crossover modes, plus integrated threaded pole mount for use with Bose S1 Pro PA and more.
MEET THE HIGH END OF LOW FREQUENCY
Give your songs full impact. Sub1 and Sub2 powered bass modules combine with virtually any portable PA to deliver low end down to 40 Hz and 37 Hz, respectively. When paired with the Bose L1 Pro32, Sub1 creates a more compact system, while Sub2 plays lower and louder. And both give you bold bass from slim design that goes virtually anywhere.
More bass. Less bulk. With a unique RaceTrack driver design, Sub1 and Sub2 offer powerful bass and an optimized center of gravity. The driver’s shape allows the physical enclosure of Sub1 and Sub2 to be slimmer without compromising sound. This frees up room in your vehicle and on the stage, and makes every carry in between — home to car, vehicle to venue — much easier.
Part of a full system Sub1 and Sub2 pair seamlessly with the L1 Pro32 via proprietary SubMatch connectivity to form a modular line array system that’s easy to pack, carry, and set up. This single-cable connection makes setup so much easier. It allows the system’s crossover and EQ to automatically calibrate for optimal sound, and — because power and digital audio are passed through the SubMatch cable — you only need a single power outlet. Just plug in your L1 Pro32 and you’re ready to go.
