John,

Personally, I don't need two of them, and I doubt you would either as I feel we do a very similar show. One is beautiful and powerful and more than suits my needs. Anyway if I got another I would be back into carrying a load of equipment to and from my gigs again.

But as they say at the auto dealership, your mileage may vary.

Of course I can justify the cost many ways, here a few:

#1. It's $ I made playing gigs.
#2 I can sell the F-150 big V8 and drive a less expensive more efficient model.
#3. I can get off my backside and start selling the assortment of PA's I have in my attic that I will never use again.
#4. I am a musician, therefore I am a little bit crazy.

Later,

I intended to test drive a single unit when I get a chance.

Great sound! We used them for vocals, sax & my Synthophone in the one band. In the other band, everything went through them. I should add they were VERY loud bands. I'd like to buy 2 of my own. I don't really enjoy playing through anything else anymore.

Same here. Will never play through anything else again.

Well, I can't say I'll NEVER perform using anything else again, those Cityparks gigs where they have hired a sound company to do the outdoor PA come to mind immediately, as well as a lot of other situations.

Pat Metheny, and avid userof L-1's, can afford to say that, I cannot. *grin*

Since this post I've been watching Craigs List and Ebay for used ones.

Good luck on that! Apparently nobody ever gets rid of 'em once they have 'em.

Pretty much every ad on Ebay is authorized dealers, and on CL I haven't seen any.

OMG, you have got to be kiddin me. You live only miles from my house and the price look good. I told you guys not to talk about this stuff. It puts goofy thoughts in my head. Be strong Dan , be strong.... don't give into the dark side. I need a new PA like I need a hole in the head.

Good luck with the sale. Now what ever happened to BIAB 2013.5?

You're right, Jazzmandan, we're probably only a 1/2 hour apart and you're welcome to come on over and give the L1 a try!
