Bose has released an anniversary version of its iconic Bose 901 speaker systems, which is dedicated to the 60th anniversary of the famous brand. These speakers were first introduced in the late 1960s and earned a genuine ovation from the public.
Bose collaborated with designers Ronnie Fieg and Mark Jupiter to develop the new version. The new Bose 901 60th Anniversary Edition model is released in a very limited edition of only 12 copies. All of them are custom-made and are available in two finishes: light ash and natural walnut.
Both options are equipped with a hand-polished brass stand. The materials and finish emphasize the furniture-like appearance of the speaker and fit perfectly into any interior. The company has not yet announced the technical characteristics of the anniversary version of the iconic speaker system.

Bang & Olufsen and Saint Laurent have unveiled a super-exclusive version of the Beogram 4000c turntable – a Bang & Olufsen factory-restored iconic turntable reimagined by the fashion house. Each Beogram 4000c Series Saint Laurent Rive Droit Edition will be sold exclusively at Saint Laurent Rive Droite stores in Paris and Los Angeles, as well as on the YSL and Bang & Olufsen websites, and only 10 units will be produced (the device will likely soon become a museum artifact).
Matrix Audio has introduced two new network streamers with transport functionality – devoid of a digital-to-analog converter and designed for use with external DACs. Both models are designed in a recognizable futuristic aesthetic and are equipped with large touch screens on the front panel. The streamers are also Roon certified.
SMSL presented the SMSL PL200T CD transport – the highlight of the model was the proprietary SMSL PASS Servo system, which ensures very accurate reading of information from optical media. The SMSL PL200T also has the ability to play MQA-CDs and a very interesting function of working as a digital transport - the device can be used as a digital interface with a USB-C input, supporting digital streams in PCM format with a resolution of up to 32 bit/768 kHz and in DSD format up to DSD512.
Børresen has announced significant changes to its range of loudspeakers - the new Børresen T series of loudspeakers, consisting of three models of different sizes (T1, T3 and T5) and three upgraded SSE (Silver Supreme Edition) versions, will replace the Børresen 0 series in the company's product range.
The current feedback amplification topology and powerful power supply of the new Accuphase A-48S amplifier provides a large reserve and stable output in pure Class A. For a load with an impedance of 8 ohms, 50 watts are available, and halving the load impedance doubles the output power. With a short-term drop in load impedance to 1 ohm, the amplifier is capable of delivering a power of 400 watts.
