Boston Horizon Floorstanding speakers
What it means to be from Boston.
Many manufacturers design speaker systems around
Boston Acoustics engineers every component of every system to meet the highest performance standards (our own). Of course, performance is only one measure of value. So we’re careful to build all our products with strict attention to everything from the choice of materials to the details of fit and finish. It’s how we’ve been exceeding the expectations of serious listeners for nearly thirty years.
| May we have your full attention? | ||
| HS Series floorstanding speakers pack a lot of technology into their trim ABS exteriors. | ||
| MBOS (Maximum Bass Output System) uses passive radiators and a rear port to improve bass | ||
| performance — without the audible noise of a port alone. Proprietary Deep Channel® Design | ||
| (DCD) poly cones with phase plugs deliver smooth, consistent response at any output level. | ||
| Front baffles are gently curved. And the cabinets themselves are heavily braced to reduce | ||
| unwanted resonances. The combined result is the natural, captivating sound you expect from | ||
| Boston, with clean, contemporary style. | ||
