I'm sorry are you a reporter? Or is that some condition you were born with to take one sentence out of context and then crap on about it. You know damn well what I mean. They are a manufacturer of audio equipment. They ADVERTISE as a manufacturer of audio equipment mostly in audio magazines or at the hifi section of the local mall. Their slogan is "Better sound through research".
I can only conclude, you are either ignorant of the context of conversation which could be re-written as "why does everyone hate bose audio products" or you actually work for the guys hence the endless defence and claims that our arguements are invalid.
Quite frankly it is clear to me that even if Dr Bose came over and stole my first born, you would probably defend the company with some crap about there always being one bad apple. Frankly I don't care anymore. If you want to spend your money on over advertised, overpriced, missdirected, mostly crap then by all means. As for most of the rest of us, I think you know our oppinions already.
PeeeMeS Grado RA-1s are actually good products. I'd have no reservations dropping $30000 on speakers if they sounded worth the money. You are just in the realm of limited returns for gain. As for cables I've already likened Bose to cable manufacturers on an earlier page.

They are a R&D & marketing company. One of their big focus areas is "upscale audio lifestyle gear", that's what they do. If you want to make up stories about how they cater to a hifi audience, you can certainly do that. But that hasn't been true since soon after the original 901's. They do not cater to a hifi audience, which is part of why people here get so snotty about them. The simple truth is that Bose has many, many satisfied customers. I think it's hilarious that that one fact drives so many people around here crazy. |
