The Bose Wave Music System IV: an origin story
-
This Bose radio CD player was one of the most recent iterations of the Bose Wave Music Systems. While the Wave Music System IV was released in 2015 to replace its predecessor, its rich history dates back to 1984, when the Acoustic Wave Music System (AWMS-1) was originally released.
Just three years later, the AWMS-1 AM/FM radio and its sound quality helped earn Dr. Amar Bose and Dr. William Short the honor of Inventor of the Year from Intellectual Property Owners for the waveguide loudspeaker system.
As the Acoustic Wave Systems continued, the Bose Wave Radio was released in 1993, offering a more compact design with two 2.5-inch speakers. Then the Wave Radio/CD introduced the concept of a radio with CD player into the Bose family that same year. However, the iconic Wave Music System, released in 2004, introduced the ideal stereo CD player, combining AM/FM, compact disc, and MP3 player format CD capabilities.
The Wave Music System IV took Bose CD players another step forward, offering its predecessors’ capabilities with a high-end disc player and an updated design and controls.
