Good Looks and Legendary Boston
Sound
Housed in stunning high-gloss scratch-resistant
cabinets with textured tops and magnetic grilles, the A
Series was designed to offer Boston’s legendary sound, with modern styling, exceptional
quality, and enduring value.
To deliver best-in-class
sound, Boston engineers brought together the best elements of traditional loudspeaker
design and technology and also included “Smart” Features to enhance the user experience.
Vertical and horizontal internal
bracings reduces cabinet resonances for enhanced audio quality, and a newly developed
ceramic and glass fiber polymer woofer cones allow for higher speed, reduced distortion,
and improved sensitivity. Further enhancing sonic performance, the crossover components
in all A Series models incorporate low-loss film capacitors and low-distortion
laminated silicon steel cores for the inductors in all critical areas.
The A Series
speakers are ideal for either multi-channel home theater or stereo-only music systems,
and may be used with each other in any configuration for any listening application.
