F1 Model 812 Flexible Array loudspeaker

Powerful, standalone sound that flexes to meet your coverage needs — the Bose F1 Model 812 is a 1000-watt, full-range loudspeaker featuring Bose Flexible Array technology. At the heart of the F1 is a 12-inch woofer nested behind an array of eight high-output drivers. These nine speakers are supported by a lower crossover point than conventional loudspeakers — to give full voice to your sound and deliver clearer, more natural vocals and midrange clarity, even at high volumes. And you control the vertical coverage pattern. So, wherever you’re playing, you can adapt the PA to match the room. With the Bose F1 Model 812, your sound stands alone.

Flex Array Shapes

Straight Pattern

Use the straight pattern when the audience is standing, and their heads are approximately at the same height as the loudspeaker.

Reverse-J Pattern

The reverse-J pattern is good for an audience in raked seating that starts at loudspeaker height and extends above the top of the loudspeaker.

J Pattern

The J pattern works well when the loudspeaker is up on a raised stage, and the audience is seated below on the floor.

C Pattern

Use the C pattern for raked seating in an auditorium when the first row is on the floor with the loudspeaker.
