Bose - Better Sound through Research
![]() | Bose
are the largest speaker manufacturer in the world and they specialise
in providing small, simple, superb sounding solutions. The Bose company
tag line is ‘Better Sound Through Research’ and that says everything.
They never copy technology. They lead, and if you compare any Bose
solution to other manufacturers it will usually be smaller, neater, and
simpler to use, and sound better. Products such as the Bose Lifestyle®
offer whole house sound from one tiny media centre. To achieve the same from any other manufacturer would require significantly more equipment and wall plates and learning remotes none of which are necessary with a Bose Lifestyle®. We stock the largest range of Bose in the country including almost all Bose spares, Bose leads and cables, and Bose accessories. Bring your iPod and experience the amazing Bose Sounddock. We stock the Original Sounddock, the Sounddock 2, the portable Sounddock, and the new Sounddock 10 - all on show and ready for demonstration. |
| Bose has introduced new Lifestyle® V-Class® and T-Class™ home theatre
systems, combining proprietary 5.1 surround sound with the new Bose
Unify intelligent integration system - a breakthrough technology that
overcomes much of the growing complexity of setting up and using home
theatre systems. Now, connecting speakers and sources, programming
remotes, and accessing content is easier and faster than ever before. Consumers have players for music, movies and video games, but getting them to work with their TV has become so difficult, they may avoid adding a home theatre system altogether. The new Lifestyle® systems simplify the set up of multiple components, and transform everyday use. | |

![]() ![]() | The Bose Unify™ Intelligent Integration System Unify technology integrates sophisticated software and hardware to deliver dramatic results. Connecting sources is effectively mistake-proof. With Unify technology, easy-to-follow steps are shown on the TV screen. They’re written in plain language, even showing pictures of the right connector. The Lifestyle® system console recommends the right cable to use, has smart inputs that sense when a connection is made, and confirms when the connection is successful. The new Lifestyle® V-Class® and T-Class™ systems were designed to evolve with an owner’s needs, accommodating up to six HD sources. The Lifestyle® remote can operate virtually any entertainment device, including Blu-ray™ players, cable boxes, Digital Media Adapters, and new devices as they become available. Unlike conventional programming methods, there is no trial and error, no codes to enter. Simply aim a source remote at the Lifestyle® system’s console and follow basic onscreen instructions. Press a few buttons on the source remote, and Unify technology automatically programs the Lifestyle® remote to operate the source. Devices are listed onscreen as “Blu-ray player” or “Cable Box,” rather than cryptic acronyms like “HDMI 1” or “COMPONENT 1.” Choose one, and the source is ready to play. The Lifestyle® remote’s interface remains remarkably uncomplicated. It controls the most frequently used commands –- like “source” or “volume,” while rarely used commands are found onscreen. Even opening a new Lifestyle® system box is reassuring. Inside are five clearly labelled boxes. Finish setting up the contents of one, and go to the next, until the speakers and Acoustimass® module are connected to the Lifestyle® system’s console, and the console is connected to the TV. Many of today’s home entertainment systems are feature-rich, but if an owner can’t access those features, they don’t offer any real value. The new Lifestyle® systems deliver what’s been missing in the market - a truly simplified, high-quality home theatre system.” Proprietary Bose 5.1 Surround Sound The new Lifestyle® V35, V25 and T20 systems feature exclusive Bose audio technologies to deliver vivid, theatre-like surround sound from only five small speaker arrays and a hideaway Acoustimass module. Bose ADAPTiQ® audio calibration technology analyzes and adjusts the system’s sound to the size, shape and furnishings of any room, providing greater freedom for speaker placement. The Lifestyle® V-Class® systems include Jewel Cube® or Direct/Reflecting® speaker arrays, a built-in AM/FM tuner, a dock for iPod®, and a universal remote control with a two-line display to show what radio station or song is playing; there’s no need to turn on the TV. The Lifestyle® T-Class™ systems include Direct/Reflecting® or Virtually Invisible® speaker arrays, and a universal remote control. All systems include a control console for connection to sources and use automatic video upscaling for the highest resolution a TV can accept, up to 1080p via HDMI. When Bose brought
their first loudspeaker to market in 1968 they started a real storm.
Bose makes Marmite look like everyone’s favourite. However, more people
own and cherish a set of Bose speakers than any other brand. If it is
lifelike music from a simple source or Home Cinema for people who live
in Living Rooms rather than Cinemas, Bose has great solutions. By all means read the reviews but then bring your favourite CD and DVD along with an open mind and try out some Bose systems. Our conversions from ‘Bose is not Hi-fi’ to ‘who cares, it sounds great’ are significant enough to boast about. We offer Bose Lifestyle® whole house multi room solutions with music from the lounge to the garden, bedroom and beyond. For those of you who still enjoy tinkering with a rack of components Bose produce a range of Home Cinema speakers which are virtually invisible® but will fill a living room with great sound.

For those of you with smaller aspirations Bose offers a comprehensive Personal Audio range of Computer Speakers, iPod SoundDock® docking stations, headphones and small foreground and background Stereo speakers. |
