Bose 701 Series I Tower Speakers, Pair – Direct/Reflecting

Legendary Bose 701 (Series I) floorstanding speakers, a left and right pair, tested on our bench and in very good condition.

What it is

The Bose 701 Direct/Reflecting tower speakers were designed to create balanced sound within a room by using a multi-chamber bass enclosure to remove audio distortion. When the speakers were first introduced, they had a suggested retail price of approximately $900 USD a pair. The 701 speakers, now discontinued, were the top of the line floor-standers in the Bose model range at the time, and second in quality only to the stand-mount Bose 901 model.

Left and right speakers are included, and each one carries one 6.5-inch mid-range driver, two 8-inch woofers and two 2.25-inch ferrofluid-cooled tweeters. The woofers sit inside the multi-chamber bass enclosure, so you won’t see them from the front. The cabinets are finished in black ash vinyl veneer.

The speakers use a side-firing mid-range driver design and Syncom computer quality control. Automatic system protection circuitry is used in case of a power overload. The speakers are compatible with any amplifier or receiver that delivers 10 to 400 watts per channel, and between 4 and 8 ohms.

Condition

Very good.
