With incredible sound to match its stunning good looks, the E100 redefines the state-ofthe- art in loudspeaker technology and performance. Housed in an elegantly slim cabinet, the E100 features no fewer than four individual loudspeaker sections, each optimized for its respective function, with upper and lower bass chambers that incorporate multiple high-output woofers that collectively provide the driving force of a much larger single woofer. This allows the cabinet to be both slender and shallow, and also provides tremendous placement flexibility, either on elegant bases or mounted directly around or even behind a projection screen. Delivering authoritative deep bass response down to the lowest registers, the E100 is a true full-range performer, with natural timbre through the midrange all the way to above the highest audible frequencies.

The six massive neodymium drivers with oversized voice coils handle large amounts of current without heat buildup to effortlessly track the input signal. A sophisticated internal bracing system provides ultra rigidity, further ensuring pure, distortion-free dynamic bass. Placed at ear height, the center section is a true three-way loudspeaker, mounted in its own subenclosure, handling notes from the upper bass and through the midrange to beyond the limit of human hearing. The center-mounted VRH.O.™ tweeter features a 1” anodized dome with highpower neodymium magnet structure. A second neodymium tweeter on the rear panel provides accurate power response, resulting in additional air and spaciousness for free standing application, and can be bypassed for boundary installation. Each of the two tuned low frequency enclosures features a carefully flared and tapered port that augments the deep bass response and eliminates extraneous “chuffing” noise. Two deep bass augmentation ports spaced far apart minimize room-induced deep bass response variations.

E100, 12/27/2009

In the past, I would have never considered Boston Acoustics for the front main speakers. I have used them for center, side and rear applications. In a search to upgrade my pair of Bose 901s, I heard the E100s. I was amazed with the clarity of these speakers. The mids and highs were crystal clear and amazing. They were not sensitive to placement, and the rear tweater driver did an excellent job of high frequency dispersion across the room. There was a definite improvement in high end clarity when they are turned on. I am very pleased with the frequency response with these speakers, although a subwoofer is definitely needed to complement the setup. It is a shame these speakers are discontinued, since I would consider using another two for my side speakers. One big plus is that they hardly take up floor real estate and blend in well with the room. My compliments to Boston Acoustics for designing a high end speaker system. Keep up the good work.
Absolutely the BEST!, 4/28/2009

These speakers are the best I have ever heard. I've owned a lot of speakers since I was in high school 25 years ago and I have never heard anything with this depth and clarity before. The sound stage is imense and the imaging incredible. Highly recommended!!!!
