Bose Professional Showmatch DeltaQ Array System
At Bose ’ s Demo Qube , the new Showmatch systems were being demonstrated as a testament to the fact that Bose is stepping backing into the PA systems market .

The SM5 , SM10 , or SM20 modules vary in vertical coverage and allow you to form Delta-Q arrays which function much more efficiently than the conventional J-Array or constant curvature arrangements .
