Description from the seller
Bose 201 Series IV Direct/Reflecting Speakers – Rosewood Finish – Matched Pair – 1996
⸻
Description
Offered for auction is a pair of Bose 201 Series IV Direct/Reflecting loudspeakers, manufactured in 1996 and finished in a classic rosewood veneer cabinet.
The Bose 201 Series IV is part of Bose’s well-known Direct/Reflecting speaker line, designed to reproduce a spacious and natural listening experience. The design combines direct sound from the front driver with reflected sound from the side driver, helping to create a wider soundstage that resembles the acoustic character of live music.
Each speaker features a large front-mounted woofer and a side-mounted tweeter, positioned to disperse sound both directly and via reflections from surrounding room surfaces. This design approach became one of Bose’s most recognizable technologies in home hi-fi systems.
The cabinets have an attractive wood-grain veneer that gives the speakers a warm vintage appearance suitable for both classic and modern audio setups. They work well with a wide range of stereo amplifiers and receivers.
