How big are the speakers on the Boston Acoustic 360?

The Boston Acoustic A 360 is a set of floor standing speakers that features two 6.5-inch ceramic glass low-frequency drivers, one 3.5-inch mid-range driver and a 1-inch tweeter. This four-speaker design makes for an incredibly accurate and flat frequency response.

What’s the sensitivity of the Boston Acoustics A360?

Boston claims a sensitivity of 90dB at eight ohms and they need an amp of reasonable output to show their best. Around the back, the mix of the expected and unexpected continues. A large bass port is normal enough, but we were surprised to find only a single set of speaker terminals rather than the more usual bi-wire capable set.

Who is the owner of Boston Acoustics UK?

Since the company was acquired by D&M holdings – which oversees Denon, Marantz and McIntosh amongst others – it has been raising its UK profile. The A Series speakers are the new entry-level range and made its low key debut at Bristol this year.

What kind of woofer does the A360 have?

The flagship A360 combines a number of design features that are relatively conventional with others that are relatively distinctive. On the conventional side, it mounts a pair of 6.5-inch graphite-injected plastic woofers (a technology Boston calls Deep Channel Design or DCD for short) paired with a one-inch softdome tweeter.

Is the Boston Acoustics A360 tower a good speaker?

The Boston Acoustics A360 Tower is a 3-way good-looking loudspeaker representing their current mid-level offering at a relatively affordable price ($800/pr). In this review, we will take a deeper look and listen to see how the A360 performs.

How are Boston Acoustics floor standing speakers made?

The speaker systems are built on own-developed dynamical heads, which a number of the patented technical solutions are used in. For example, an inch tweeter is equipped with soft Kortec dome that together with a powerful magnetic system allowed to extend an effective playing band to 25 kHz.
