Product Description

The Bose® F1 Model 812 Flexible Array Loudspeaker is the first powered portable loudspeaker that lets you control its vertical coverage pattern. Simply push or pull the array into position to create "Straight," "C," "J" or "Reverse J" coverage patterns. And once set, the system automatically changes the EQ to maintain optimum tonal balance for each coverage pattern. So 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.

Engineered with an array of eight high-output mid/high drivers, a high-powered 12" woofer and a lower crossover point, the loudspeaker delivers high SPL performance while maintaining vocal and midrange clarity that's dramatically better than conventional loudspeakers.

For extended bass response, the Bose F1 Subwoofer packs 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.

And now getting there is easier, too. The loudspeaker and subwoofer feature light weight, high impact composite materials and strategically placed handles for easy transport.

For the first time, the F1 Model 812 Loudspeaker allows you to focus sound where it's needed. So no matter where you perform, your PA has you covered.

Features and Benefits

The flexible, eight-loadspeak ar of the F1 Model 812 allows you to select one of four coverage patterns to direct sound to where the audience is located resulting in better overall clarity throughout the venue.
- The vertical orientation of the eight-driver loudspeaker array helps deliver wide, consistent sound coverage, providing better clarity and tonal balance for speech, music, and instruments.
- F1 Subwoofer provides a unique built-in speaker stand for the F1 Model 812, eliminating the need for a conventional pole mount.
- Attractive design creates a unique system with a rugged but professional look.
- The bi-amplified design includes powerful, lightweight amplifiers that provide consistent output over long durations with extended dynamic range and lower operating temperatures.

Using the F1 Model 812 on a Tripod Stand

The bottom of the F1 Model 812 Loudspeaker includes pole cup for mounting the loudspeaker on a tripod speaker stand. The pole cup fits a standard 35mm post.

WARNING: Do not use the F1 Model 812 Loudspeaker with a tripod stand that is unstable. The loudspeaker is only designed for use on a 35mm pole, and the tripod stand must be capable of supporting a loudspeaker with a minimum weight of 44.5 lb (20.2 Kg) lbs and an overall size of 26.1" H x 13.1" W x 14.6" D (665 mm H x 334 mm W x 373 mm D) inches (mm). Using a tripod stand that is not designed to support the size and mass of the F1 Model 812 Loudspeaker may lead to an unstable and hazardous condition that could result in injury.

Troubleshooting

If you experience problems while using this product, try the following solutions. The recommended troubleshooting tools include a spare AC power cord and extra XLR and 1/4" phone plug cables.

Problem What to do
Loudspeaker is plugged in, power switch is on, but power LED is off.·Make sure the power cord is fully engaged into both the F1 Model 812 Loudspeaker and the AC outlet. ·Make sure you have power at the AC outlet. Try operating a lamp or other equipment from the same AC outlet. ·Try a different power cord.
Power LED is on (green),but no sound.·Make sure the VOLUME control is turned up. ·Make sure volume control is turned up on your instrument. ·Make sure your instrument or audio source is plugged into the appropriate input connector. ·If the F1 Model 812 Loudspeaker is receiving input from the F1 Subwoofer, make sure the subwoofer is turned on.
Instrument or audio source sounds distorted.·Lower the volume of the connected audio source. ·If you are connected to an external mixing console, make sure input gain to the mixing console input channel is not clipping. ·Reduce the output of the mixing console.
Microphone is encountering feedback.·Reduce the input gain on the mixing console. ·Try positioning the microphone so it nearly touches your lips. ·Try a different microphone. ·Use the tone controls on the mixing console to reduce the offending frequencies. ·Increase the distance from the loudspeaker to the microphone. ·If using a vocal effects processor, make sure it is not contributing to the feedback.
Poor Bass Response·If using the F1 Model 812 Loudspeaker without the F1 Subwoofer, make sure the EQ switch is set to FULL RANGE. ·If using the F1 Model 812 Loudspeaker with the F1 Subwoofer, check to see if the POLARITY switch is in NORMAL mode. If there is a fair amount distance between the F1 Subwoofer and the F1 Model 812 Loudspeaker, setting the POLARITY switch to REV may improve bass. ·If using two F1 Subwoofer, make sure that the POLARITY switch is in the same position on each subwoofer.

Problem What to do

Excessive Noise or System Hum

  • When connecting a microphone to the F1 Model 812 Loudspeaker, make sure the INPUT 1, SIGNAL INPUT switch is set to MIC.
  • Check to make sure that all system connections are secure. Lines that are not completely connected could create noise.
  • If using a mixing console, external source or receiving input from the F1 Subwoofer, make sure the INPUT 1 SIGNAL INPUT switch on the F1 Model 812 Loudspeaker is set to LINE.
  • For best results, use balanced (XLR) connections on the system inputs.
  • Keep all signal-carrying cables away from AC power cords.
  • Light dimmers can cause hum in loudspeaker systems. To avoid this, plug the system into a circuit that is not controlling lights or dimmer packs.
  • Plug the audio system components into power outlets that share a common ground.
  • Check cables at mixing console inputs by muting channels. If the hum goes away, replace the cable at that mixing console channel.
