Great tone and good condition Review: Love the Bose Wave Radio - I’ve owned a Bose Wave Radio system for many years. Used to run three in different places in the house and one at work. Over time they break down, the CD player goes wonky. I had three of my old ones repaired and gave them to my kids, and have one left to repair. I’ve missed the Wave system so much that I bought this one, and I’m so glad I did. It works perfectly, and the remote is the big one rather than the little credit card size. There’s not a scratch or issue at all with the unit, and the rich Bose sound easily fills my office. The unit is intuitive and easy to use, and the platinum color looks nice in my neutral grey taupe beige home/office. My only problem is I can’t blue tooth to it as I need an adapter. I don’t know which one to buy that’s best for my unit. I contacted the seller but they gave me no recommendation, other than to tell me I need an adapter. It was nice they answered but I thought the seller could have been more helpful. ## Features - Lifelike sound from Bose waveguide speaker technology - Plays all your music sources: CDs/MP3 CDs, FM/AM--plus your iPod, smartphone, computer, tablet or Bluetooth device with optional accessories - Includes CD player, advanced FM/AM tuner, headphone jack, remote, clock - Now with: Touch-top on/off/snooze controls; dual independent alarms; displayed song/artist radio info ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B007ZCCRBG | | Audio Output Mode | Stereo | | Best Sellers Rank | #21,451 in Electronics ( See Top 100 in Electronics ) #13 in Stereo Shelf Systems | | Bluetooth support? | Yes | | Brand | Bose | | Color | Platinum White | | Compatible Devices | Headphone | | Connectivity Technology | Auxiliary, Bluetooth | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 1,515 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00017817554190 | | Item Dimensions | 18.75 x 12.5 x 6.5 inches | | Item Weight | 10.96 Pounds | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 18.75 x 12.5 x 6.5 inches | | Manufacturer | Bose | | Mfr Part Number | 343178-1210 | | Model Number | 343178-1210 | | Number of Speakers | 2 | | Speaker Type | Stereo | | Speakers Included | Speakers included | | Style Name | Wave Music System | | Supported Audio Format | MP3 | | Supported Standards | CD | | Surround Sound Channel Configuration | 2.0 | | UPC | 017817554190 | | Wattage | 15 watts | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Bose - **Color:** Platinum White - **Connectivity Technology:** Auxiliary, Bluetooth - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 18.75 x 12.5 x 6.5 inches - **Speaker Type:** Stereo ## Images ![Bose Wave® Music System III - Platinum White - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/517Odxqx3pL.jpg) ![Bose Wave® Music System III - Platinum White - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/5110+eYUcrL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Color** options. ## Questions & Answers **Q: I Want good reception for digital FM stations no matter where the unit is in the house. Is the radio reception enhanced?** A: Fm reception is better then any other receiver in the house. I bought the external antenna and did not need it. There one station where I live that is hard to pick up and the Bose is crystal clear. **Q: is it worth the price?** A: No, it is not. Bose sent me an open box, and I have been trying without success to request a return. They will not respond. Amazon won't help, either. The alarm is unreliable. I overslept twice. I set the CD player to sleep after 90 minute. I wake up several hours later and it never shut off. If the music is on low, it sounds muffled. It only sounds good on high. Not worth $500.00. Especially when you can't return it! I will never buy Bose, again! **Q: How many CD's can you put in this Wave?** A: i have the bose wave 3 and the 3 cd changer under it but there is no communication between the 2 parts I think I need the Bose wave 2 for them to be compatible. will the 6 cd changer work with bose wave 3??? **Q: does it have a usb port** A: The only places I found were "Auxiliary In", Headphones", "Bose Link "( large round with little holes) and Antenna. No marked USB ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good product *by G***H on March 23, 2026* Just what I wanted.

Used to run three in different places in the house and one at work. Over time they break down, the CD player goes wonky.

This Unit Lives Up To All The Hype! *by M***R on November 15, 2012* I thought I had already reviewed this purchase. My first attempt didn't publish, but I thought the second attempt had, well anyway ... I LOVE THIS MUSIC SYSTEM! I can't get over the incredible sound that comes out of a system of this size. On some of my CDs the sound is better than on my living room stereo system. This unit is placed in my bedroom and whether I'm playing the radio or a CD or MP3, I have absolutely no complaints regarding the sound. The "bottom" (bass line) is incredible!! I love the ease of turning the unit on or off (soft touch to the top), but I will probably purchase the Wave III premium backlit remote soon. Not because I dislike the "credit card-sized" remote that comes with the unit, but because if I misplace it - it's doubtful but it could happen - I could only use the radio if it was the last feature that I was playing before turning the unit off (and I couldn't change the radio station). You have to have a remote to switch between playing the radio, CDs, or any other audio/video auxilliary equipment connected to the unit. You can't change the radio stations, or move forward or backward in the CD's tracks, set either of the two alarms, change the factory settings for certain features, etc., without a remote control! I've had the music system for over a month and I consider it money very well spent. I've already raved enough about it that I convinced a relative to buy one. (He said he had intended to buy the system but wanted to get a review from another "audiophile" who's opinion he trusted.) I didn't have to purchase a FM antenna, and my AM stations sound better than they do via the tuner on my living room stereo system! If I have one complaint about this unit it is that when playing CDs you see the disc's elasped playing time for each track, but unfortunately as the disc is being read when first put into the unit, there's no total playing time for the entire compact disc, nor is there information regarding the total number of tracks on the disc. Here's hoping that the engineers/designers who will be working on the Bose Wave Music System IV (I don't doubt that that will be the next model in this line) will incorporate those features. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1148989-bose-wave-music-system-iii-platinum-white](https://www.desertcart.co.uk/products/1148989-bose-wave-music-system-iii-platinum-white) --- *Product available on Desertcart Great Britain* *Store origin: GB* *Last updated: 2026-05-02*
