The Bose B1/B2 requires a NL4 connector with all 4 pins connected (that's why we call it 4-wire cable). Unfortunately, the Speakon connector comes in three different flavors, NL2 (2-pins), NL4 (4 pins), and NL8 (8-pins). Most salespeople are not aware of the differences. 

A good source for the correct cables is

;Note: If you have an L1 Model 1S or L1 Model II - do NOT add a 10k resistor to the cable. That's only required when using a B2 with an L1® Model I or L1® Classic. 

Consider getting 90 degree ends like this:

If you call Mark and tell him you want the cable for the Bose B1, you will get one that is made to our specifications. You can also any custom length cable at a very reasonable price.
