Mooie bose 201 speakers, 1 speaker heeft een lichte beschadiging aan de achterkant/zijkant
This is a buyer’s market for compact Bose bookshelf speakers, and the €150 asking price is a fair deal for a used Bose 201 pair, sitting just below the €152 median of seven recent EUR comparables and comfortably between the €108 25th percentile and €164 75th percentile. It’s not a bargain by the percentile cutoffs, but it’s solid value for a well-regarded model that delivers Bose’s signature direct-reflecting sound with wide dispersion and surprisingly full midrange in small rooms.
The 201s are beloved for their Stereo Everywhere technology, which keeps tonal balance consistent whether you’re seated on-axis or off, making them ideal for casual listening and smaller spaces. At €150, you’re paying for a proven, durable design that still holds up today, especially if the pair is original-owner, unmodified, and includes wall mounts or original grilles. Only probe for driver wear or foam degradation if the listing hints at age or questionable condition; otherwise, this is a straightforward buying opportunity for a classic, space-efficient speaker.
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.
