Not Made in USA
Statement by Bose Corporation on their dedication to American manufacturing and the US worker:
“Our corporate research and development headquarters are located in Framingham, Massachusetts. As a global company, Bose has sales and manufacturing facilities all over the world. There are no longer any Bose consumer electronic products or headphone products that are manufactured in exclusively in the USA.”
Bose Corporation makes the Wave® system III with a CD player; CDs/MP3 CDs load directly into the front of the sound system. Some standard features include; on/off/snooze with just a simple tap of your finger, more precise radio tuner, and you can set two different wake-up times with independent alarms. You can also purchase a remote control for more convenient listening pleasure. The Wave System III is made in Columbia South Carolina.
The Bose A20 and A20 Bluetooth headsets are made in the United States. The US made Bluetooth Headphones they provide are the the most advanced Bose® aviation headset yet, and they are still US made. The A20® Aviation Headset is used primarily in the aviation industry. It’s features include a Bluetooth® communications interface, with an auxiliary audio input and priority switching, it meets or exceeds all TSO requirements.
Note: As of 10/09/14 we found this information: “Made in the US, meets or exceeds all TSO requirements” on the A20® Aviation Headset page; they also manufacture Military and Tactical Headsets for US Army use, hopefully they are still US made!

I have several Bose audio items. They are of exceptional quality and made with high grade
parts, especially condensers. This is the weakest link in most solid state devices. I certainly
hope that the business can survive the current lefty administration and its stupid regulations.
If you are listening ,I hope that you will not sell out to a company off shore. Keep up the good work with producing quality equipment.
Not made in America too bad will not buy it
I want to buy another wave system but not if it’s not made in USA
I still use the Bose 3-2-1 Home Theater System and it works fine. The Sound stage is fantastic. The Bass on it so heavy that till date except very rarely, I never employed the Full Bass.
Sad that your products aren’t made with American hands. Lost another customer. God bless
I have a pair of bose 2,2 speakers made in 1988. At times they have been pushed hard with vigor and they still sound like they just got out of the package! Bose makes the finest and longest-lasting speakers and audio equipment in the world.
if Bose is not made in the states what good are they then?? Time to shop for something else now.
They have 3 factories in the US and 1 in Mexico. I have worked for 2 printed circuit board companies in NH who build boards for their products, right here in the USA. Bose may not be 100% USA made but they have kept a large part of their biz here. Our Liberal Government Taxes. regulates. and fines big Business more than any other country in the world and that is why they go where they can build it cheaper. It is our government’s fault, not the corporations.
Exactly, most people don’t understand this. Our U.S. Gvmt forces companies to go overseas for production by making it too expensive to manufacture anything here, while giving incentives to manufacture in specific foreign countries.
