Bose ® Freespace ® Model 8 And Model 32 Loudspeakers - Bose FreeSpace 8 Installer's Manual

®
2.0 Bose FreeSpace
Bose designed the FreeSpace Model 8 and Model 32 loudspeakers to provide
high fidelity voice and music reinforcement in commercial settings. These Virtu-
®
ally Invisible loudspeakers meet the aesthetic demands of most architectural
designs. The loudspeaker rim and grille can be painted to match the setting.
Bose has an information sheet explaining how to paint the rim and grille.
Call 1-800-996-BOSE and ask for a copy of 183073 Loudspeaker Painting.
FreeSpace Model 8 loudspeakers are available in two versions: 100V (Europe and
Japan only) and 70V (North America only). FreeSpace Model 32 loudspeakers are
available in three versions: 100V (Europe and Japan only), 70V (North America
only) and 4 (worldwide). All 70V and 100V versions require a Bose approved
equalizer, such as the Bose FreeSpace (Model 8/32) system controller. Using the
loudspeakers without an approved equalizer causes inferior acoustic perfor-
mance and may damage the loudspeakers. The 4 version of the Model 32
loudspeaker does not require an approved equalizer. It is compatible with the
FreeSpace BMA-125 business music amplifier and other amplifiers.

Note: Figure 1 shows both the FreeSpace Model 8 and the Model 32 loudspeak-
ers just to illustrate the differences in the two loudspeakers. These loudspeakers
will not be mixed in the same box. The other parts shown in the illustration are
common to both loudspeaker models.
