| | {{Comparing L1 Pro Power Stands to Subs}} |
| | |
| === L1 Pro8 Power Stand compared to Sub1 ===
| |
| Both use the 7"x13" Racetrack transducer
| |
| | |
| The L1 Pro8 base is 31 pounds. The Sub1 is 35.5.
| |
| | |
| The L1 Pro8 base is slightly smaller than the Sub1.
| |
| | |
| The L1 Pro8 bass amp is 240 watts RMS. The Sub1 is 480 watts RMS.
| |
| | |
| The L1 Pro8 is 112 dB SPL continuous. The Sub1 is 118 dB SPL continuous.
| |
| | |
| The L1 Pro8 goes down to 45 Hz (-3 dB). The Sub1 goes down to 40 Hz (-3 dB).
| |
| | |
| === L1 Pro16 Power Stand compared to Sub2 ===
| |
| Both use the 10"x18" Racetrack transducer
| |
| | |
| The L1 Pro16 base is 41.4 pounds. The Sub2 is 52.
| |
| | |
| The L1 Pro16 base is slightly smaller than the Sub2.
| |
| | |
| The L1 Pro16 bass amp is 1000 watts RMS. The Sub2 is 1000 watts RMS.
| |
| | |
| The L1 Pro16 is 118 dB SPL continuous. The Sub2 is 123 dB SPL continuous.
| |
| | |
| The L1 Pro16 goes down to 42 Hz (-3 dB). The Sub2 goes down to 37 Hz (-3 dB). The difference is due to the larger physical volume of the Sub2 enclosure.
| |
| | |
| === Two Sub1s or Sub2 ===
| |
| Two Sub1s have approximately the same membrane surface area (180 square inches).
| |
| | |
| The power difference is negligible (960 watts RMS compared to 1000 watts RMS).
| |
| | |
| Two Sub1s tightly coupled (stacked or side-by-side) should provide up to +6 dB over a single Sub1 (118 + 6 = 124). The Sub 2 is 123 dB SPL. The difference is negligible.
| |
| | |
| The Sub1 goes down to 40 Hz. The Sub2 goes down to 37 Hz (-3 dB). The difference is due to the larger physical volume of the Sub2 enclosure. Running two Sub1s does not change the frequency response.
