Bose Professional
Engineered Sound — DesignMax Architecture & PowerMatch Amplification
Request System DesignOverview
Bose Professional delivers the commercial and architectural audio systems that fill the world's finest hotels, restaurants, and performance venues — engineered for consistent coverage, speech intelligibility, and musical performance at scale.
The DesignMax loudspeaker series provides architectural integration in ceiling-mount, pendant, and surface-mount configurations — designed to disappear into architecture while delivering Bose's signature sound.
Peters Audio Video specifies Bose Professional for applications requiring even coverage across large, complex spaces — grand foyers, natatoriums, covered outdoor areas, and entertainment spaces where consistent SPL matters.

Specification Review
Choosing Bose Professional for Your Home
Compare the specific equipment proposed for your rooms, not the brand name alone. Bose Professional families discussed on this page include DesignMax Loudspeakers, FreeSpace Outdoor, PowerMatch Amplifiers, ControlSpace DSP. Availability, model specifications, firmware and third-party integration support need confirmation before a final design.
- Room fit: Request a model-level schedule showing where each component will be used, its mounting and power requirements, and any architectural compromises.
- Integration evidence: Identify the supported connection or driver for each required function. Separate physical compatibility from actual command support and test behavior when internet access is unavailable.
- Complete scope: Compare equipment, infrastructure, configuration, commissioning and documentation together. Confirm subscriptions, licenses, warranty terms and ongoing support separately in the proposal.
Useful project details: Your listening areas, preferred music services, ceiling details and whether speakers should be visible or concealed.

How We Install Bose Professional
Discovery & Design
Every Bose Professional installation begins with a comprehensive consultation. We evaluate your home's architecture, existing infrastructure, and lifestyle needs to develop a detailed system proposal with room-by-room specifications and control interface design.
Architectural Coordination
For new builds and renovations, our team coordinates directly with architects and builders during the design phase — ensuring Bose Professional infrastructure (conduit runs, power, equipment closets) is properly planned before walls close.
Professional Installation
Installation requirements depend on the selected Bose Professional equipment: mounting, cabling, ventilation, power and configuration are coordinated with the project scope. Documentation records the installed components and relevant connections.
Calibration & Commissioning
After installation, we verify the specified Bose Professional functions and system connections. Applicable audio, video or control settings are commissioned for the room, with owner orientation and documentation appropriate to the equipment.
