Thirty years ago, filling a room with sound meant filling it with equipment. It was almost a universal belief that you needed a large component system to create full, rich sound. However, Bose® research discovered a better way; a solution that would provide full sound quality in a compact system. Acoustic waveguide® speaker technology produces full, clear stereo sound from a small enclosure by guiding air through two 26" folded wave guides.

Developed and patented by Bose®, this technology is so revolutionary that it won the prestigious "Inventor of the Year" award. Nearly 20 years after introducing the first product with Acoustic waveguide® speaker technology, Bose® engineeres continue to test the boundaries of what is possible with this radical innovation.v
