Could not find the weight either. Surprised it took so long for these Bose look-a-likes to come to market.
Looks like the speaker makers are all getting into the stuff a stick into a sub phase these days. The only one that I care to own would be the RCF. This is going to be the new trend and it will get old quick. Kudos to Bose for holding the crown for 8 years.

I have no idea how much oomph this system has but presumably, I think the concept is a good one. Even (magnitudes) better if they could have a wireless linking solution in place. I'd love nothing better than to be able to spread 2, 4, 6, etc. of these "Baby Bose L1" system around a room. Having sound that's well distributed throughout the room and even in side rooms/patios would be a major step forward.
If I recall correctly they are the most expensive of the bunch too but maybe worth it they spec out great
Sweetwater is now selling them:

And in Canada, the AV Shop:

Few observations based solely on looking at the link. Have not listened to it.
These seem pretty cool. Spec wise looks pretty good for $799. Comparing to the l1 compact at $999.
But I really don't know what the specs are one the L1 compact. I just know it does a ceremony or cocktail hour wonderfully.
The one difference I can see is the weight. Compact is 22lbs vs 68lb. on this one. I'm hoping at 68 lbs it can do more than the compact.
The compact takes 1/8" and rca in addition to xlr and 1/4". That's nice, but having an adapter is not that big of a deal
The Bluetooth features and iPhone iPad remote features are certainly something the compact doesn't have.
I'd love to hear it and hear about the companies track record and customer service reputation.

Yeah, the compact is still hard to beat given it's light weight. If Bose added the bluetooth features of the Turbosound it would be just about perfect.
This sub of Turbosounds' is interesting as well:
Turbosound iNSPIRE iP15B
I can use it with either powered or passive speakers.
Could offer good flexibility for small events to use as a center sub with the choice of using either passive or powered satellite speakers depending on available distance to power outlets.

Only 58 lbs but the spl rating seems low at only 120db?

Bluetooth is ok. But I still would be concerned about using it at a gig. Now the iPad/iPhone remote thing would awesome to have.
Ive used the Bluetooth on my American Audio Go bt 8's for numerous small parties and ceremonies with no issues, it's been rock solid
