The sound is amazing but it takes some getting used to when you first get this radio; the power of its sound belies its size. The many features of the Bose Wave Radio model IV are surprising and thoughtful. The remote is the primary control for the device other than a touch On/Off feature atop the radio.
Be advises you MUST purchase an external Bluetooth adapter if you want to play your playlists from you phone or iPad via Bluetooth! This is why I gave it four Stars for ease of use, but as you can see in my photos I purchased the more expensive Genuine Bose Wave Bluetooth Adapter for Bose Wave Music System IV III. It is much more expensive than some of the newer adapters but the connection is easy and the performance is perfect; quality counts.
If you can find one of these radios and a Bluetooth adapter to go with it, both of which are in very good to excellent shape, you will be the proud owner of a beautifully looking and musically satisfying piece of audiophile history and a rare personal legacy of an audio icon.
