I think Bose‘s own specifications can be taken seriously.

Bose L1 Compact has a maximum SPL of 106dB, peak 112dB.

Bose S1 Pro has a maximum SPL of 103dB, peak 109dB.

A difference of 3dB rougly equals a double wattage, whereas double sound pressure is +6dB and the psychoacoustic loudness requires a difference of 10dB to be perceived as twice as loud.
