You know the moment. It’s the first notes of that song you love, the intro to your favorite movie, or simply the sound of someone you love saying “hello.” It’s in these moments that sound matters most. 

At Bose, we believe sound is the most powerful force on earth. We’ve dedicated ourselves to improving it for nearly 60 years. And we’re passionate down to our bones about making whatever you’re listening to a little more magical. 

For over 40 years, we have partnered and seen rapid growth with some of the finest automobile brands in the world to create unique sound solutions for our customers on the road. With a meticulous blend of hardware and software design, we can deliver a magical listening experience in the car with more of the sound you want—your music, your phone calls—and reduce the sounds you don’t want, like engine and road noise.
