The BOSE Wave III Music System with the attached 3-CD changer is a refined evolution of the original Wave, known for its compact form and impressive sound. First introduced in the early 2000s, the Wave series set a new standard for small home audio systems, using BOSE’s waveguide technology to produce deep, room-filling audio from a minimal footprint.

This model retains the AM/FM tuner and dual alarm functions while expanding its capabilities with an attached 3-CD changer, allowing for extended playback without swapping discs. The design remains sleek and understated, with a front-loading CD slot, a simple remote interface, and an aux input for external devices. A staple of high-end home audio, the Wave III balances functionality and sound quality in a way few compact systems achieve.
