Yesterday we moved up to the Bose office in Madrid to try to scoop the Bose VideoWave. The company created by the eccentric but brilliant Dr. Amir Bose (now professor at MIT) first leaves the terrain where best moves, audio systems, to create their first television. The results of this debut are mixed.
As television, powerful and imaginative performance mixed with gaps unannounced product the iron discipline of the company in integrating technologies that they consider only fully ripe at the market level. One thing I can anticipate is that this is without a doubt, the TV that sounds best in the world itself.
That does not mean, of course, that is the best TV in the world, much less. Let us start with the easiest part to explain the image. The Bose VideoWave is a 1080p LCD TV 46-inch panel. Bose is known for never to provide specific technical specifications of their products, but call attention to two gaps, the first is that there is an LCD, LED, and the second is that its frequency is only 100Hz, so neither is compatible with 3D.
Both absences would be understandable if it were not for the Bose VideoWave is not a very low-end TV. The company explains its decision to downplay 3D retroliluminación ensuring that the LED does not meet their demands for mature technology. In this regard, I can only say that VideoWave Bose looks great, but its image quality is not as flashy as other teams.
As we advance when originally announced, the Bose VideoWave has two inseparable elements that are sold together. The first is the TV itself. The second is an audio video hub that brings together all the necessary physical connections and a basis for the ubiquitous iPod or iPhone. Despite its size and shape, the second device does not have Blu Ray player and WiFi connectivity.
Bose's idea is that everyone can connect the device to create more convenient, is a set top box for internet television, a Blu-Ray, a console or a multimedia disk. The connectivity has been greatly simplified. The system detects and identifies the type of device so that the user does not have to rack their brains about how everything is HDMI port.
Another detail that is a great match is over. Only a handful of buttons give us access to basic options. The rest are displayed in a ring of functions that change with the context, does not hide the image and is operated from a wheel touch control. If there is one thing that stands out Bose VideoWave any multimedia system is in the sound section.
The TV is wide enough for the current average. Its approximately 15 inches thick hide an audio system consisting of two large groups of speakers. The first group consists of six bass speakers packaged in a structure that channels the sound through an S-shaped tube and out the bottom of the screen.
The second group is divided into a center speaker and two trios media cones on top sides. Faced with these side groups are the icing on the cake, two tweeters elongated design created using a technology called Faceguide. The sound that developed this cluster is equivalent to a home theater system high range.
Supports positional audio in high definition and listen with clarity, power and natural simply stunning. The point of genius as Faceguide tweeters added that, in combination with the ADAPTiQ that configures the sound characteristics depending on the location of the TV, the sound projected several feet from where the screen is not through a satellite speakers.
During the VideoWave test showed us a strange-looking gadget toy sword. It is in fact one of these tweeters Faceguide attached to a cord and a laser pointer. With this device in hand we were able to carry the sound emitted exáctamante to the point where you point the laser pointer. From Bose and we anticipate that VideoWave is not a TV for the entire world.
In fact, say that not even a computer designed for technology enthusiasts who want to choose skills and ride on your own the many components of a home theater system. Doing the latter is more laborious, but certainly cheaper. The Bose VideoWave is rather a TV for many potential users who want a very easy to use and absolutely spectacular sound, but without having to fill the room speakers, an audience no doubt select few but found.
VideoWave costs a whopping € 7,500 in which are included transportation, installation and initial configuration. For that price, and given their peculiar characteristics of image and sound is hardly comparable with any TV that populate the market today. If you are passionate about high fidelity, your home does not (by design, religious or practical reasons) complicated installations and are willing to pay 7,500 eurazos, this is undoubtedly your computer.
Our only question is the size of 46 inches. We seem likely that a user willing to spend that amount of money you want a more diagonal screen. Either way, the work of Bose engineers when such an arsenal fit behind a TV sound can only be described as epic.
