Vertical Coverage Control with Extended Bass

The Bose® F1 Model 812 Flexible Array loudspeaker is the first powered portable full range loudspeaker that lets you control its vertical coverage pattern. Simply choose among four different settings. Whether you're playing at floor level, on a stage, or facing raked seats or bleachers, you can now adapt your PA to match the room. And once set, the system automatically changes the EQ to maintain optimum tonal balance for each coverage pattern. So, wherever you're playing, you can have the right coverage for the right room. And the F1 Subwoofer included in this package gives you extended bass for live or recorded music.

• Exclusive flex array can be configured into four unique shapes ("Straight," "C," "J" or "Reverse J"), allowing the customer to choose the best possible coverage pattern for the application
• Eight-driver mid/high line array mounted on a custom 100-degree waveguide helps deliver wide, consistent coverage
• F1 Subwoofer plus 12-inch high-performance low-frequency driver provide deep, powerful bass down to 43Hz (-10 dB)
• Bi-amplified design features two high-output, Class-D amplifiers to separately power the flex array and 12-inch LF driver
• F1 Model 812 extension bracket integrated into the subwoofer can be raised and lowered, allowing the F1 Model 812 loudspeaker to be safely mounted to the subwoofer, eliminating the need for a conventional pole mount or tripod stand
  
  

Quality Performance

The loudspeaker is engineered with an array of eight high-output mid/high drivers, a high-powered 12" woofer delivering bass down to 43Hz (-10 dB). And, a lower crossover point delivers high SPL performance while maintaining vocal and midrange clarity that's dramatically better than conventional loudspeakers. 

How it Works

The eight drivers on the F1 Model 812 Flexible Array loudspeaker are mounted on a specially designed flexible baffle. Simply push or pull the array into position to create four vertical coverage patterns: "Straight," "J," "Reverse J" or "C." Once set, the system automatically changes the EQ to maintain optimum tonal balance for each unique coverage pattern.

For Extended Bass

The F1 Subwoofer adds deeper, more commanding bass to your performance. Its two 10-inch high-excursion drivers pack all the power of a larger bass box into a more compact design that's easier to carry and fits in a car. A mounting stand for the loudspeaker is integrated right into the body of the subwoofer, so you always know where it is, making setup fast and easy. The stand even includes cable channels to neatly hide the wires.

The loudspeaker and subwoofer each have 1,000 watts of power, so you can fill nearly any venue with sound. Additional features include a polarity switch (NORM and REV) for easy correction of low-frequency overlap between the main loudspeaker and subwoofer, and line output EQ (high-pass filter or full-range settings) for easy crossover selection when used with a main loudspeaker.

Easy Travel

And now getting there is easier, too. The loudspeaker and subwoofer feature strategically placed handles for easy transportation and highly durable, lightweight composite enclosures to ensure easy transport.
