The computers had evolved so much in the last decades, and along with them the audio equipments. Long time ago there were just some small speakers included on the main board, but now you can find all kinds of external speakers, with different sizes, shapes and prices. There are many big producers on the audio market, and one of them is Boston Acoustics.

It was founded in 1979 by Fran Reed and Andy Kotsatos. First it produced just home equipments, but after four years it began to produce audio equipments for cars too. It is manufacturing all sorts of speakers from subwoofers, midrange, satellites and many more. We will talk about each of them in this article. In 2005 the company was bought by D & M Holdings, and now it continues to operate as a subsidiary of D & M.

Now let's talk about the products of the company. Some cool speakers that you can't find in most of the other companies offer, are the soundbars. These are long and slim speakers (with the aspect of a bar) and they are usually used with a TV. You can place them under the TV, but they can also be fitted anywhere you want due to it's compact aspect. An example are the P 400 3 channel speakers. These are actually three speakers integrated in one unit (right, left and center channels). They have a pretty good power and sound quality so they will worth the high price. They are perfect to be placed under a flat screen TV, so you will have a great movie experience with them, and you won't need a surround system that will fill up all the space of your room.

Among the Boston Acoustics computer speakers you can find some cool home theater systems. One of them is the Sound Ware XS 5.1 Home Theater System, that comes at a price of 500 dollars. It has a cool and stylish design, and it comes in very small dimensions. You can enjoy some rich and powerful sound and you won't have to worry about where to place them. They are so small, they can hardly be noticed in your room. You can choose between black and white color, depending on the aspect of your room.

But if you don't want to buy a whole audio system, you can always choose just some of the components, or make your own system combining different components. First you can choose one of the bookshelf speakers offered by the company. These can be placed in a bookshelf, but it's not necessary there because you can use them as satellites and put them wherever you want. An example are the CS 23 Bookshelf speakers. They will deliver high quality high-frequency sounds, but they are also build specially to bring a good bass. They have a simple classic look, and you can use the individually or as satellites in a home cinema system. The come in 2 colors: Black Walnut ot Cherry Vinyl.

Other Boston Acoustics computer speakers are the floor standing speakers. They have the aspect of a tower, and like it says in the name they can be placed directly on the floor. They can also be used as individual speakers or you can make a stereo system by combining two of them and a subwoofer. Or you can combine them with some bookshelf speakers and make a 5.1 system. One of them are the CS 226 Floor standing speakers. They have a classic look and an exceptional quality and value...like all of the Boston Acoustics products. They have a price of 229 dollars, and they also come in two colors (black and cherry).

One of the most important components when you are watching a movie is the center channel. It usually brings the dialogs, or the voices when listening to music and also the center stage sound effects. So that's why you must have a center channel for your system. There are a few in the company's offer, with different prizes and characteristics. One of them is the RS 244 C, at a price of 500 dollars. It is a combination of elegant design, good performance and high technology. It delivers clean and balanced sound from all the sound ranges - so that means it can also bring some bass. It has a Frequency Range of 50Hz - 26kHz and the recommended amplifier must have between 10 - 200 Watts.

You can't have a great sound experience without the low and deep frequencies. Even though the surround speakers or center channel can give some bass sounds, this is not enough for big fan of music or movies. So to complete the sound range you will definitely need a subwoofer. This is the "basso profundo" of all speakers and if you have a powerful subwoofer you can easily make the windows vibrate or you can easily annoy your neighbors. So that's why it is important to keep the bass at a middle volume if you don't want to have troubles with your neighbors. But if you are living in a house, you can definitely turn it louder and enjoy the great audio experience that it brings. There are many good and powerful subwoofers offered by Boston Acoustics, and the most expensive is the VPS 210. It has a cool and unique design and an incredible power of 500 watts, so that means it will rock your world! :) No bass note will go unfelt, whether it is from a symphony orchestra or a house track.

When you want to take the party near the pool, or in the backyard or anywhere outside, you can choose one of the Boston Acoustics outdoor speakers. They are waterproof so you will be able to use them on any kind of weather, both on a hot day or summer or a cold day of winter. Some of the most interesting outdoor speakers  are the Voyager RK 6T2. They come in a very cool and unique design, and they have the shape of a rock. That means you will be able to place them anywhere in your yard, and the people passing by won't even know where the sound comes from. They come in three colors: sandstone, river rock and New England granite, so you can assort them as good as possible to your back yard.

The company also makes in-wall and in-ceiling speakers, so you can enjoy they're sound and not worry about the space at all. They are included in the ceiling or wall, so that will make them practically invisible. There are many models with different shapes and prizes where you can choose from.

As we mentioned before, Boston Acoustics also makes audio equipments for cars (speakers, amplifiers and subwoofers). Some of the big brand names it collaborates with are : Chrysler 300, Dodge Avenger, Dodge Charger, Jeep Grand Cherokee and many more.

Because of the great popularity of the iPods and iPhones, the company also produces some speakers and docs for them. They are one piece devices, which are usually having 2 speakers and a display screen...they look pretty close to a radio or cassette recorder. All you have to do is introduce your iPod or iPhone into the appropriate place, and enjoy all your music in a much better sound quality.
