Yep... it works. The lines are voiced with the same x-over, and there's no standard horn, so it is fine. It actually enhances directivity and also couples the sub SPL. Just because something wasn't designed to do it, doesn't mean it can't lol. Sometimes, you have to do unconventional things -- like turning a speaker upside down to couple horns together. You do what the gig requires :) I just wonder if the top boxes are secured. Ordinarily, you'd use tie downs when doing that.
I stacked them in a hall. They sounded great. I think Bose is more concerned with improper tethering and rigging hence the speakers falling down and possibly injuring someone. My take on it is all it takes is a little common sense and some ratcheting ties to design a system that works for stacking the 812's.
just an idea Get a set of box truss and build 2 of the mid range f1 812 on the middle over the top, or even maybe on the floor but on its side. It will be better for the audience on the middle of the concert. they will get a better sound quality.
It's been a few years now since you posted this. Are you still using the stacked setup? I have a pair of them which I love but sometimes I wouldn't mind more power for bigger events.
hi , as the sound system is placed on the podium, it might have been better if the tops were placed next to each other, what do you think, it's just an idea
Hi, great sound! I have a pair of F1, and for some bigger gigs, I will’rent another pair.. How have you plugged exactly? If I coule know tour exact signal path? Have UA-cam problems with subs phase?
Yes, you did! Read your comment again. Don't worry, Bose is good when it comes to audio equipment. It's meant for people who want portability and room filing sound. It's very obvious, most of us in the industry are like one man/girl army, so need Bose equipment. While the well established ones with huge team, will go for some giant speakers.
Was just thinking how you could plug another 4 or 8 channel mixer inline straight from the drums all mic'd out! Or if you expanded orchestra by sections...

@Jaime Benedict Thanks for your reply. I got to the site through google and im in the hacking process atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later with my results.
I ordered two more fi stand from Bose. Did some cutting. Remember is the same stand holding the fi from the bass speaker. I have a video on on UA-cam how I did tha cutting under kofi dankyi on UA-cam.
how much bass are you actually getting off 4 subs ? i am asking as i am not sure what i need to do with my set up. I have been told i really need to add a pair of 18" sub cabs for lower bass but i have been also told that the 812 tops couldn't handle the 18" subs .. Ive been told that i should just get a second pair of bose subs and it will be fine , as it all works as a complete system , that pushes bass better than 18" subs ... so I'm kind of lost really on the su object as i cant just throw away lots of money and be unsatisfied .. I play in a 3 piece rock /punk infused band so really need the bottom end
Hi Christopher, my two cents... I've got 2 tops and 4 subs. in the beginning, I bought 1 sub just to test. I ran two Peavey SP-4's at 4 ohms with a 5000 watt Peavey amp. I then ran my Roland TD-30KV kit into the system. The dual 15's (per side) just didn't have the capability to reproduce my secret weapon (808 auxiliary kick). when I brought the F-1 sub into the mix, the entire thing just blew me away! The two 10's literally made everyone come outside to investigate what was going on! 2 10's can keep up with a single 18 all day, so with that in mind, I got an additional sub and a complete F-1 812 system. I'd put it up against ANY 218 sub per side with single 12's and a horn any day, any time. Bear in mind, I can carry my entire system in a Toyota Highlander, load in and out myself AND never pick up anything that weighs more than my old lady! No More dual axle trailers and full-sized heavy duty trucks for me. Bottom line...after contemplating my new system, I'm more than satisfied! I don't have a tone match, I run a Midas M-32 .
@@mfc1965 thanks for commenting .. i will be getting 2 more f1 subs for my system > its good to hear form some one that has gone this way .. I cant afford to play around and spend money that i cant re spend again .. I think what bothers me is that i am so use to 18" subs from the old days with folded speakers the size of a tank blows me away that i can have a good sound system with only 10" subs .. and not have to break my back and carry all the power amps as well .. I didn't want to stray from the system but was finding it hard to get many inputs as the system is expensive and not every one can afford it .. thanks for the advice
I am a huge F1 Fan, and own several, but why would you even bother with all that. Get a better, bigger, more suited setup for large events. One RCF 8004 has more output than two F1 subs, but a long shot, and the NX-L24A will blow away 812s. Be smart about it.
JAS Productions I load, unload, and setup by myself, so I needed something lightweight that also sounds good and the Bose F1 812 was the best choice. Anyways, thank you for the suggestion.
I know that setup defies everything that BOSE has instructed to do with this PA, but the sound is quite good

what is the name of the accessory that is in the middle of the two treble
just an idea
Get a set of box truss and build 2 of the mid range f1 812 on the middle over the top, or even maybe on the floor but on its side.
It will be better for the audience on the middle of the concert. they will get a better sound quality.
What did you use to stack them.
Amazing!!! God Bless!!!!!!
Thank you!
sir, hold the cameras horizontal(sideways) before hitting the record button. You get a much better view when uploading to youtube.
Thanks for the tip
It's been a few years now since you posted this. Are you still using the stacked setup? I have a pair of them which I love but sometimes I wouldn't mind more power for bigger events.
I think I'm about to order ...
Playing for the birds. Got the top array on the top speaker posing so the sound goes up. Let’s go,with that
The speakers are pointing down, the F1s have an adjustable face
Charlie, the top speaker is arrayed upward. Definitely for the birds. But I bet they appreciate it.
I understand this model is dated...Any recommendation whether a pair of this is suited for a 5500sqft prayer hall?
the cameras mic is awesome
That music is beautiful...thank you. I'd love to know where I can buy a copy

Where did you get the bracket between the 812 cabinets been looking all over for them thanks
He made them. He cut the speaker stands down, and screwed the cut off top on to the bottom speaker.
Ok thanks so much I thought as much

Hi, great sound! I have a pair of F1, and for some bigger gigs, I will’rent another pair.. How have you plugged exactly? If I coule know tour exact signal path? Have UA-cam problems with subs phase?
this is great, can you show or explain how you wired them up please?
Maybe they use Y splitters going to the 2 loud speakers
There's Bose...and then there's....uh...uh...uh...uh....Did I say Bose???

ya, so why wouldn't you want less speakers. 2 vs 6.
@@DJJASProductions you dont know his situation so leave him alone
JAS Productions I’m pretty sure it’s easier to single handedly move 4 f1 subs compared to 2 8004s
RCF 8004 =112. lbs 👈🏻🥵🚚 vs F1 sub 55. lbs 👈🏻👍🏻🙌🏻🚙
