Hele mooie krachtige bose studio speakers. Met statieven uit het plafond zodat ze hangen. Super gaaf !
Against the obvious alternative at this money — a cleaner pair of mainstream bookshelf speakers from the same era — €275 is ambitious for these, since it sits well above your €184 75th percentile and far over the €147 median. By your own comparable set, this is not a bargain; it needs either exceptional condition, original packaging, or some particularly strong local demand to justify the premium.
That said, this model has a long-standing reputation for easygoing, room-filling sound and forgiving placement, which is why it keeps showing up in used searches. If the cabinets are tidy, the drivers are original, and everything works as intended, it can still be a satisfying buy — just not at this asking price unless the cosmetics and provenance are unusually strong.
Independent perspective — not a price guarantee. Always verify condition, accessories and provenance before purchase.
Bose Corporation traces its roots to 1964, when MIT professor Amar Gopal Bose founded the company in Natick, Massachusetts, after growing disillusioned with the poor performance of a high-end stereo system he purchased as a graduate student. Driven by a passion for replicating the immersive qualities of live music through rigorous acoustic research, Bose launched the venture with initial contracts for the U.S. military and NASA, emphasizing innovative speaker designs that prioritized indirect, reverberant sound over direct radiation. This American heritage, rooted in psychoacoustics and engineering excellence, has defined the brand's pursuit of "Better Sound Through Research."
Bose excels in consumer and professional audio categories, renowned for its home audio systems, premium speakers like the iconic 901 Series, and pioneering noise-canceling headphones first prototyped in the 1980s for pilots. The lineup extends to vehicle sound systems, portable Bluetooth speakers, and professional installations, but steers clear of niche hi-fi components such as amplifiers, turntables, DACs, or cables, focusing instead on integrated, user-friendly solutions that blend advanced signal processing with spatial audio reproduction.
Positioned as a premium mid-tier powerhouse in the global market, Bose commands widespread appeal among discerning buyers seeking accessible high-performance audio without audiophile esoterica. Its reputation for innovation and reliability has built a loyal following, though purists occasionally critique its measured sound signature, cementing Bose as a dominant force in mainstream hi-fi rather than high-end boutique or vintage realms.
