Product Description

Product Description

Our best all-in-one music system is now even better. The Acoustic Wave® music system ll offers more lifelike sound for larger spaces, with improved functionality and versatility, yet remains refreshingly simple to use. Acclaimed waveguide speaker technology still lies at the heart of this system's performance, so it rivals the sound of much larger, more complicated stereos. An all-new Bose digital platform fine tunes the sound for more accurate, consistent music reproductioneven at louder volume levels. Vocals sound cleaner. Instruments ring truer. The result comes closer to music in a natural, live-performance setting. The Acoustic Wave® music system ll plays your home-burned CDs as well as regular discs and AM/FM radio. You'll find a new headphone jack for private listening, auxiliary inputs and an updated informational display. A variety of accessories adds to your listening enjoyment at home or on the go. And you can add our optional 5-CD changer for even more continuous listening. The system hasn't changed in size or convenience. It still fits almost anywhere in your home, easily controlled from across the room by a credit card-sized remote. It accomodates your MP3 player, travels easily and goes portable with the optional power pack. The original Acoustic Wave® music system changed opinions of what a quality stereo system could be. Now, the Acoustic Wave® music system ll challenges our perceptions once again, with sound that comes even closer to the essence of live performance.

5.0 out of 5 stars THIS UNIT IS GREAT!!!!!!, October 14, 2007

By	Temujin Scott "singerboy" (Brooklyn New York) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This is a great unit. I am a R&B lover. A lot of the times R&B is very bass heavy. This unit handles R&B quite well. I was under the assumption that Bose called it the "acoustic wave" due to this unit being perfect for more acoustically driven music. The BOSE rep said no, they named it that because of the type of technology. The technology is set up like an acoustic instrument. (i.e. a flute)
Bose's trick is a third speaker inside the unit connected to 2 separate amps for the highs and lows.
The key to getting the best sound out of this unit is placement
Don't place the unit too close to where you will be sitting. Place it farther from you - that way you will experience the TRUE sound of this unit.

For the size of the unit, it performs really well! It is a great investment and it is portable. Don't listen or go by the negative reviews! Especially the gentleman or lady who went to the pawn shop to hear one...LOL

Cons: Pricey - but worth it - great for movies too!!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars Bose acoustic wave system, June 7, 2008

By	Flower (San Francisco) - See all my reviews

This is a wonderfull system and worth every penny - and more! The gentleman from Washington tested a used one in the pawn shop. It was probably stolen and damaged by some miscreant. Do yourself a favour: listen to a new item and then review itBose Acoustic Wave Music System II - Graphite Gray]]
