Our take on the Bose Sub2 Powered Bass Module

The Bose Sub2 is a powered subwoofer built for Bose's L1 Pro portable PA systems, using a 10-by-18-inch RaceTrack driver in a compact, shock-resistant enclosure. It reaches down to 37 Hz and is rated for 129.8 dB peak output from a 1,000-watt amplifier, so it adds real low end to a small band or DJ setup without a large cabinet. It connects to the L1 Pro system through a SubMatch cable and can be tuned from the L1 Mix app. At $1,198.86 at Acclaim Sound and Lighting as of November 3, 2026, it sits at the top of its recent price range rather than at a discount.
