Description
Combine DesignMax models to complete any design, big or small — 12 loudspeakers to mix and match, from 2-inch, lowprofile models to 8-inch, high-SPL compression-driver loudspeakers and outdoor-rated options
Deliver rich lows and clear, intelligible highs with coaxial two-way drivers — no DSP or EQ required. For even better sound,
use select Bose DSPs and amplifiers to enable Bose loudspeaker EQ and SmartBass processing, which expands performance
and response at any listening level
Ensure a consistent listening experience throughout the room with the Dispersion Alignment system, which matches the
coverage of the woofer to the pattern of the tweeter
Blend with any room design with elegant form factor, minimum-bezel grilles available in black or white, and removable logos
Reduce installation time with the patented QuickHold mounting system, which also reduces strain, hassle, and the chance of
product damage
Install easily with industry-standard accessories — all models include Euroblock connectors; in-ceiling models include
plenum-rated backcans, tile bridges, and front-access audio wiring that makes installation and troubleshooting easier
Install DM5SE outside — IP55 rating with standard aluminum grille for outdoor use
