===How I ended up with all three models=== | |||
; October 2020, the L1 Pro systems were announced | |||
* I had an opportunity to sell my two L1 Compacts, so I did and ordered an L1 Pro8 to check it out. | |||
* I ordered two L1 Pro16s because the L1 Pro32s were not available to order | |||
; Late February 2021, the L1 Pro32 was released | |||
* I got two L1 Pro32 with Sub1s. I got another L1 Pro32 with Sub2 later. | |||

** Even for small gigs, the L1 Pro32 is never too big. | * I might have gotten two more Sub1s instead of the single Sub2. Two Sub1s are very close to a Sub2, more flexible, and easier to transport. It was hard to know that until I had both models of Sub to compare. | ||
