The founder of the Bose brand dies

Amar Gopal BoseInternational. At the age of 83, the founder of the Bose audio equipment manufacturer, Amar Gopal Bose, died in the United States, who will be remembered for his developments, from his company as the academy.


His research was always based on the psychological and physical response of sound. Under these theories he concluded that the experience in a concert hall is 80% indirect. With this concept he developed speakers and speakers with psychoacoustics as a principle.

Another of his facets was teaching. Until his retirement from the classroom in 2001, he was  a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. And it was precisely in the classrooms of MIT, but as a graduate student, that he came up with the idea of creating his own company, an idea that materialized in 1964.

In the 1950s, Amar G. Bose decided to buy a new stereo system, he was disappointed to discover that speakers with admirable technical specifications did not reproduce the true sound of a live show. That's where the idea of creating his company began.

His first development that moved the industry was the 901 speaker system in 1968, which was characterized because sound reproduction came much closer to the essence and emotional effect of live music, that is, applying for the first time the concept of psychoacoustics.
