Amar Bose – Aimed At Walls
Dr. Amar Bose, who changed the home loudspeaker industry in 1968 with his model 901 Direct/Reflecting loudspeaker system, passed away on Friday, July 12th. The Bose 901 incorporated speakers aimed at the walls instead of at the listener, unlike other hi-fi speakers made at that time. His company went on to make other familiar audio related devices such as headphones and TV’s, like the VideoWave , the inside of which is pictured here.
