AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Bose 800 Pro PA System.

These sets are designed for PA use but are also excellent for home use in a living room. Connecting to a regular audio installation takes place in the same way as with the other well-known Bose 901 sets.

The Bose 800 set is still in excellent condition and is fully original. There are however light signs of use visible. The outer surfaces of the speakers are still completely intact. Unfortunately, a few corners of the equalizer are damaged. You can clearly see this in the photos.

Internal checks showed that a few of the small speakers have been re-soldered. It is possible that one or more wires became loose during use.

This set has had only one owner before I acquired it.

Included is a folder with a number of prints of what I could find on the internet about this speaker system. Additionally, there is a complete connection set included, consisting of new-wired cinch/banana plug cables and speaker cables.

If you do not see the equalizer and cables when unpacking, they are in the case lid in the standard compartments provided for them.

The fronts bearing the handsome Bose logo are easily removable. There are loops fitted to pull the fronts off. These fronts are equipped with Velcro.
