The founder Amar Bose a graduate of MIT began extensive research on finding a high quality audio system when he was once disappointed with a car stereo system that he had purchased for his car. Bose was of the view that on the whole the general design of the electronics and speakers needed to match with those of the listeners as the listener is also a part of the audio system. He used an electronic equalizer to adjust the acoustical output. Even though the speakers were ideal from the point of technology the results were disappointing from the point of view of the listeners. He further researched into psychoacoustics to get high quality of sound to arrive at the listeners ears similar to that of a live performance. This required a further revision in the speaker design to aim at electronic equalization thus confirming the superiority of reflected sound over what could be heard directly. This new design proved to be a large audible improvement over the design manufactured earlier and became a huge commercial success in the 1970?s. Bose gives preference to the listener?s perception of audible quality rather than the set standards and therefore does not publish those specifications for his products.

    Mr Amar Bose ? That makes him of Indian origin..nice! Nice to see an Indian at the helm of a top organization . I saw a show about their quality norms - was totally blown away..no wonder they're the best
  2. The products of bose are definately class apart, i've been using them for long and have no complaints whatsoever...well Indians have done well everywhere in the world and BOSE is definately a manifestation of that.
  3. Although I have not experienced Bose myself, I do know that it is the best out there. Very innovative and modern. Plus, I love it when someone decides to make an excellent product because they got sick of inferior ones.
