Absolute tripe. The first part you wrote may be true depending on your opinion/what your looking for. Their showrooms are not set up in anyway except with plaster and bricks. I put some of them together. Personally i have an older B & W setup at home its fantastic, i also have a Bose Sounddock Portable also fantastic. Stop speaking on things you presume are right, did you actually see all this expensive equipment or did somebody else on the internet tell you this?
Dont get me wrong Bose isn't for everyone. If you want sonically accurate sound buy seperates. But the convenience of some of there products is great (i love my sounddock). I dont mind you having your opinion but why do you have to poopoo every body else, its shows a cetain immaturity.
Well I read about that, and could believe it to be honest, as I have heard a BOSE system in a neighbours house and it sounded a bit poop, but I heard a similar system a few years back which sounded quite good in a showroom. It's not apples to apples but it doesn't need to be, I have seen how BOSE products are built and some of the designs. Nothing speical in the slightest, but made out by their marketing drive to do everything a bookshelf can do, but louder and better, all from a little cube a few cm square.
See above, you think what you will and I will think what I will. No need to get your handbag up, the BOSE products I have heard sound extremely average, not horrible but just very very average. Then you see the price and that average shoots right down to sheer disbelief an horror.
Go and buy BOSE if you want, I will continue trying to steer people away to credible alternaticves
There is so much negativity in this part of the forums. It's not so much helping as battering opinions into people.
Sometimes it is needed, especially when people come on raving about Razer because someone on '1337 gamerz sound reviewz' says razer 2.1 system rocks for £200+. Im not trying to ever steer people to what I would want, but always provide alternatives and tell em to have a demo if at all possible.
BOSE I will continue to bash as they produce overpriced, mediocre sounding equipment, marketed as the best brand and stuff in the world. Im not soo stupid, and have heard enough of their stuff to know that.
