High Performance Loudspeakers for Flat Panels
JAL-0904-DP-V01

Boston P4 Series is an exceptional combination of sound and style that’s unlike anything any­one has ever seen – or heard – before. Made to fit the clean look and high performance of today’s flat panel TVs, this line of loudspeakers produces phenomenal sound. At the same time, P4 speakers flatter a variety of decors with a simple style that looks great on walls, tabletops, or floor stands. Whether you’re looking for a basic surround sound system or a full-blown theater at home, P4 speakers offer a stunning sound solution.
And for those looking for the ultimate in simple elegance, there’s the P400. It’s a left, center, and right channel in one incredible speaker. This sleek unit transforms your favorite movies and shows by providing an incredibly accurate and truly amazing soundstage.
Simple elegance.
And a sound that’s truly stunning.
The Boston Sound
system is an audio experience more like a live concert than a recording. It is the sound the artist intended. Pure, natural, true-to-the­original performance™. The Boston Sound.
It is the sound recognized for its smooth, octave-to-octave tonal balance from the deepest bass to the highest treble. It is the legendary performance distinguished as much by what it doesn’t do as by what it does; not favoring one frequency over another, instead presenting the mids, highs and lows in perfect balance. It is greater detail across the entire sonic spectrum with no artificially generated coloring or distortion at high volume. And, it is the same consistent voice you hear no matter which Boston speakers you’re listening to, or where.

The P400 is the ultimate in high performance flat panel sound. This revolutionary speaker is the first to provide left, center, and right channels in one simply stunning unit. With its multiple 41⁄2-inch neodymium mid-bass drivers and three patented one-inch VR®aluminum dome tweeters, this loudspeaker provides the detail and clarity to impress even the most discerning listener.
The P400: high-end elegance
in a single speaker.
Elegantly encased in a sleek cabinet that’s the same depth as standard plasma or LCD TVs, this speaker provides the entire front soundstage, eliminating the need for three separate speakers. It can be wall mounted above or below a flat panel TV, and once mounted, it can be angled up or down to envelop the listener in sound. The P400 can also be set on top of a TV, placed on a table or credenza, or used with an optional table stand for a clean look that complements any room. It’s versatility and elegance that puts flat panel sound on a whole new level.

For a complete surround sound experience, simply add additional P4 Series speakers as side and rear channels. Or, for even greater placement flexibility, use Boston Bravo speakers. They mount inconspicuously into corners, or flush on the wall, and have the same styling as P4 speakers for a flawless look. High performance home theater systems simply are not complete without a subwoofer. Boston subwoofers are designed to perfectly complement our P4 Series. It all adds up to a system that takes stunning flat panel sound and makes it better than ever.
