Bose – Better Sound Through Research

Dedication to research and excellence. It’s been the Bose approach to better sound since Dr. Amar G. Bose founded the company in 1964. But the commitment actually began years earlier.

In the late 1950s, Dr. Bose, then a graduate student, purchased a stereo system based on its impressive technical specifications. The avid music enthusiast was disappointed to discover the speakers didn’t reproduce the sound of a live performance–and he became determined to recreate that lifelike audio experience for listeners.

After extensive research, Dr. Bose and colleagues introduced the groundbreaking 901 Direct/Reflecting speakers in 1968. Their lifelike sound won immediate and widespread acclaim.

Since those early days of 901 speakers, Bose engineers have kept their focus on creating better technology. You’ll find that focus exemplified in the Computer MusicMonitor, with advances that ensure premium performance and convenience.

Exceptional Audio Quality in an Elegant, Space-Saving Design

Premium Two-Speaker Bose System for Computers

This premium two-piece computer speaker system is also the smallest from Bose, yet it delivers sound well beyond its size. Computer MusicMonitor is recommended if your laptop or PC is a prime source of entertainment, you’re particular about audio quality and you want an elegant yet unobtrusive system.

Until now, high quality desktop sound with convincing low notes has come only from large speakers or a three-piece system with a bass module. The MusicMonitor computer sound system is an alternative for serious listeners who prefer a two-piece solution offering exceptional performance, simplicity–and more desktop space.

This unexpected sound quality results from the latest in Bose amplifier technology, combined with highly efficient neodymium speakers and Bose digital signal processing. The system’s proprietary amplifiers are smaller, lighter and more efficient than traditional linear amplifiers to help keep speakers small–yet powerful. Active electronic equalization balances low, mid and high frequencies for more natural tone and clarity. Acoustic design features dual internal opposing passive radiators for unusually deep, powerful low tones from a very small multimedia speaker system.

Setup is easy–you’ll need only one cable connection to your computer or auxiliary sources. Volume and power controls are on the right speaker. Or, use the handy remote control that comes with the system. And the speakers are magnetically shielded, so you can place them near your monitor without worrying about monitor interference or damage to magnetic media. To use the Computer MusicMonitor with other audio sources, just unplug the connection to your computer and connect the other audio source to the audio input.

Enjoy the fullness and detail you may have been missing from your favorite downloads, Internet radio and much more, simply and elegantly. The system’s understated, space-saving design and elegant brushed aluminum enclosure complement any workspace and fits nicely almost anywhere in your home.
