squawker Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 What on earth is this? If the middle section is the bass, it's probably not too smart putting the CD player in front of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dkp Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 Another marketing ploy by Bose. The two speakers hanging from the ceiling are the ones actually producing the sound (the right one is just out of sight). All the other stuff is just eye-candy.

pauln Posted August 20, 2007 Share Posted August 20, 2007 I will sound even better after they finish unpacking it and remove the protective plastic shipping column around the bass unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

capo72 Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 If I hit the Mega Millions tonight, i'm buying that Avantgarde trio with the bass horn. It's about a $130,000 set-up. Then i'll have a big forum get together and fly all you guys in so you can hear them. You can also listen to my $25 Cornwalls if you wish.

seti Posted August 21, 2007 Share Posted August 21, 2007 Bass Horn System Data Type: Active Dynamic Radiation Impedance compensated bass horn system covering the range from 18 to 250 hz.The modulare concept allows you to tailor the system to your needs. 2,4 or modules will give you state-of-the-art bass performance. Each basshorn module is driven by 2 x 12 inch drivers and powered by a 350 Wattbuild-in active amplifier.Linearization: our active dynamic radiation-impedance compensatedcircui (Patent pend.) will equalize the lower bass response of the hornsystem, allowing for lo frequency response down 18hz even at small hornmouth dimensions (0,85 sq.m/9 sq.ft).

squawker Posted August 21, 2007 Author Share Posted August 21, 2007 It does look like Dr. Seuss. It also looks like a photo of a band sitting in front multiple phonograph recorders about 100 years ago (without the band) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
