It is ok , not enough base in it and no way to adj

The way they delivered it was not nice. I knew it was coming. I expected the driver to pull up in the driveway and speak to me and hand it to me. But instead, they threw it in the grass at the front of my property , a little away from my mail box, what is up with that for a $643.00 purchase, I don't get it

Bose Wave

The sound is terrific and I needed a new AM/FM radio for my bird and home office. My bird loves jazz, classical, bluegrass and especially Etta James

Best ever

I love this music system! We moved and my husband got rid of all my music systems!! I had nothing to play my cd's on. This takes up so little room but sounds so big! Best investment?. Love it!

Great product

We replaced our twenty year old wave with a new one. It came in two days, was very easy to set up. The sound is excellent. We enjoy the touch on and off and the remote is convenient and easy to use. So happy we were able to replace the wave as it's a great product.

My third Bose

My Bose CD player/radio adds so much to the quality of my day. My husband gave me one years ago. It's still going strong! This second Bose is in our bedroom, which is so nice if we are in different rooms. Sound quality is great! And it's so easy to use and set up. The third Bose is the one I gave to my mom. She loves hers also. I still love my old CDs. And I am so glad to have a quality sound system for listening to them!

I love my new Bose FM/AM radio

I bought my new Bose radio a few weeks ago & am so happy to have music & community radio to keep me company during the day. The sound is great and my favorite FM stations come in nice and clear.

Great sound

4 years ago I lost my first Bose when we moved to Florida and it wasn't until recently that I could afford to buy another one. There is no radio that compares to the Bose??If your looking for a radio that sounds great and picks up radio signals great this is the one for you!!

Just not the same

I like my new clock radio but loved my old one better. The sound is great and the ability to pull in stations is wonderful. The bad part is that all the controls are in the tiny remote. I liked the big buttons on top of the radio so that I didn't have to turn on a light to turn the volume down in the middle of the night to put on the sleep timer and wake my husband. My former partner was blind and I could put tactile marks on the buttons for him to independently use and control the radio. Please return to the old design with the controls on the top and include a remote for those who want it.

I sounds nice but....

I bought this hoping that my husband with advance Parkinson's Disease could listen to his CD collection....however the remote is too small for him to use and there aren't any controls on the unit itself. I plan to return it.

This replaces an original piece of equipment that I bought about 15 or 16 years ago. I was told it was no longer available so am thrilled to have been able to find it. It's as wonderful as ever!

Love me some Bose!

I had already owned a Bose Wave, had it for several years & loved it. The CD player stopped working & I had to order myself a new Bose Wave right away!!! Didn't want to be w/out it.

Sound quality not worth the price. Returned wave.

My mothers Wave that is 10 years old sounds wonderful. This wave did not sound the same. Didn't have a stereo quality. Returned.

Still the best!

I purchased my first Bose system in 1982; I've been delighted with all my purchases ever since then. The Bose Wave Radio IV (this is my third iteration of the wave radio) sounds great! I had to search a bit to find a new one, I wish it would return to your regular line of products.

Something easy

Replacing a 19 year old Wave that finally had too many issues to cope with. Love the new one as much as the previous one. EASY set up - just plug in and play it. Great sound for so little work. Slthough a bit pricey, it's a quality product in every way.

Wave IV Music System is everything I wanted.

I used to listen to my collection of CD's in my car while driving, but a temporary glitch in my CD player made me rethink my situation. Many new cars no longer come with CD players, so the Bose Wave IV gives me the great option of playing my most cherished music well into the future. The instructions are clear and easy to follow, even for a techno-idiot like me, and the sound quality is fabulous!! I now don't know why I waited so long to upgrade to a Bose system. There's always a danger with rating a brand new product because I don't know what problems may occur later. I may write another review in the future. One small complaint: Writing the serial number down to register your product is very difficult for two reasons. The model and serial numbers are on the bottom of the machine and are impossibly small. I needed magnifying glasses to read them properly. The instructions don't mention this, but the serial number is also on the box, although it's no labeled as such. "Small" complaints. Overall I'm thrilled with the machine!!

FEATURED REVIEWS

The only musical appliance you need.

By stoutdog

My old Bose Wave Radio (BWR) finally died after 20 years. When I inquired about repairing it, I was offered an upgrade from Bose that absolutely amazed me. I got a generous discount towards the latest model which I could not turn down. I sent back my old unit and had my Wave Music System IV (BWMS) as it called these days in a week. Initially I thought the bass response was a bit boomy compared to the BWR. I have gotten used to that and it isn’t a factor. One of the best things I added to it w...

THANK YOU FOR CD FEATURE

By Sue

Thank you so much for keeping the CD feature! Some of us are older & have collected 100s of CDs that we love to play on the Bose Wave!

The sound of a much larger stereo for CDs, AM/FM and more
Enjoy rich, room-filling sound from a small music system that fits nearly anywhere-and now has a fresh design. The Bose Wave music system IV includes a CD player, an AM/FM radio tuner and an input in the back for other sources.

• Exclusive waveguide speaker technology delivers high-performance sound
• CD/MP3 CD player with repeat, random and continuous play
• Advanced AM/FM tuner with onscreen text display of song and artist information
• Optional Bluetooth music adapter to wirelessly connect your smartphone, tablet or other Bluetooth device
• Auxiliary input for other sources
• Slim credit card-style remote operates all functions
• Dual alarms with gently rising volume
• Large display with adjustable brightness and automatic nighttime dimming
• Headphone jack for private listening

Elegant simplicity
Just plug it in and you're ready to go. Regular or home-burned CDs/MP3 CDs load directly into the front and your favorite radio stations are available at the touch of a preset. A slim infrared remote control lets you operate all system functions from anywhere in the room and the convenient touch-top controls for on/off/snooze are completely invisible. You hear your music with clear, full, accurate sound. All from a system that fits virtually anywhere-living room end table, kitchen counter or bedroom nightstand.

Big sound from a compact system
Much as a flute expands a breath of air to fill a concert hall, Bose waveguide technology fills your room with natural sound.

Plays well with all your music
In addition to the built-in CD player and AM/FM radio, there's an optional Bluetooth music adapter that allows you to play music from your smartphone, tablet or any other Bluetooth device.

Sets up in minutes
There's no stack of electronics. No big speakers. No wires running around your room. Proprietary Bose technologies automatically perform many of the adjustments needed for high-performance audio. So you can enjoy the performance of a large, multi-component stereo without setting a row of controls. You may find yourself listening to music more often and enjoying it more. It's really that simple.

Easy usability
The advanced AM/FM tuner delivers clear radio reception and you can instantly access your favorite stations with six FM and six AM presets. Song and station information appears on the large visual display. And the CD player lets you hear your music the way you like with repeat, random and continuous play.
