I agree with Gary
In addition, numbers don't always mean the same nowadays.
It was true a while back, but not now.
The way Bose handles power in ratio to Volume/sound is different than your regular conventional speaker.
I played a gig in an Auto Museum for 200 people with 2 Bose L1 compact and a sub.
It was a large industrial kind of hall...
A couple of times I was asked to turn them down a bit...
Plenty of power..
But sooooo easy to set up
