Features
Virtually Invisible Speaker System
Design: The Virtually Invisible speaker system design gives you expansive
sound without dominating your décor. The Acoustimass module delivers deep,
powerful bass without audible port noise, so it can be hidden almost anywhere in
the listening area. The music and sound effects seem to come from the tiny cube
speaker arrays.
Powered Acoustimass
Module: The Acoustimass module uses a proprietary
enclosure and patented technologies to produce deep, rich bass with clarity and
balance.
Direct/Reflecting Speaker
Technology: The Direct/Reflecting speaker technology helps the compact cube
speaker arrays deliver more open, spacious sound throughout the listening area.
You hear enhanced surround sound and exceptionally lifelike stereo with a larger
soundstage.
Horizontal Center
Channel Speaker: Designed to visually complement flat-panel TV screens while
delivering natural-sounding dialogue and vocals.
Integrated Signal Processing:
The Bose patented integrated signal processing compensates for the human ear's
reduced sensitivity to bass at low volumes. You hear the proper balance of deep
bass, even at very low, late-night listening levels and dialogue continues to
sound natural.
Automatic System Protection Circuitry:
When played at high volume, this system's automatic protection circuitry
activates to prevent damage to the system from electrical stress or overload.
When this happens you may notice a slight decrease in volume, which is normal.
Drivers: The powered
Acoustimass module uses two 5-1/4" high-excursion paper cone woofers, each with a foam surround. Each
of the four cube speaker
arrays features dual 2-1/2" wide-range Twiddlers. The top and bottom
sections of the cube speaker arrays can be rotated to create room-filling sound
patterns. The horizontal center speaker uses the same dual 2-1/2" wide-range Twiddlers
as the cube arrays.
