A Brief Introduction to Some Special Features
Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the Bose ® Wave ® music system, an elegant way to bring high qual-
ity sound into any room.
We encourage you to begin by listening to the demonstration CD provided. Simply insert the
demonstration disc and your Wave
® music system will play the CD automatically. For more
details on playing CDs see “Playing audio compact discs (CDs)” on page 11.
Over fourteen years of research by Bose Corporation brings you the benefits of award-winning
patented acoustic waveguide speaker technology. Using this technology, a tube efficiently
transfers energy from a small speaker to the outside air over a wide range of low frequencies.
And, long waveguides, folded into intricate patterns, fit into products small enough to be
placed comfortably in your home. Your Wave
® music system features new dual tapered
waveguide speaker technology, connecting two speakers to two 26" tapered waveguides
which combine to produce unprecedented instrument timbre from a system this size.
