About the Bose® Acoustimass® 5 Series III speaker system
Enjoy impressively rich stereo sound without cluttering your living space. The Bose® Acoustimass® 5 Series III speaker system includes two tiny Direct/Reflecting® cube speaker arrays, plus a hideaway Acoustimass module. The satellites are video-shielded for placement near a TV, and the swivel design lets you rotate the twin cubes for an ideal mix of direct and reflected sound.
Because low frequencies are omnidirectional, you can place the Acoustimass module anywhere in your room even out of sight and the bass will seem to emanate from the tiny cubes. No wonder Bose calls this design Virtually Invisible®.

Features
Cube Speakers: Each cube array is composed of two small cubes which can be swiveled. Each cube contains a 2.5" Twiddler cone driver. The two satellites are video shielded, but the bass module is not shielded.
Bass Module: The bass module has a port opening in the front of the unit. There is an automatic system protection circuitry that keeps the unit from being overdriven by reducing output. This may cause a slight decrease in volume.
Wiring: Wires are run from the left and right speaker output of the receiver to the bass module which has two spring clip speaker inputs. Wires are then run from the two spring clip speaker outputs on the bass module to the left and right cubes. Since the crossover networks needed to protect the cubes are in the bass module NOT in the individual cubes, the units must be connected this way.
Wall Mounting: Each of the satellites has a 5mm female thread in the back allowing for the use of optional screw in type brackets.
Specifications:
- As with most Bose products, many specifications such as frequency response and sensitivity are not given.
- Power is given as "compatible with receivers or amplifiers rated from 10-200 watts per channel".
- Impedance is given as "compatible with receivers or amplifiers rated from 4-8 ohms".

The Bose system in my llving room (about a 14 x 18 foot room) is remarkable. Across all ranges, from highs to lows, the Bose system delivers sharp, clean sound. I am impressed. I listen to classics most of the time and this systems delivers first-rate sound.
