This should be thought provoking. What is the worst speaker, or the most over-rated, over-priced, over-hyped speaker you have ever heard. Have you ever had speakers that you now wished you had kept?
I got to hear a demo between some Fried R4 (I think?) and some Bose 501. The Bose had that lobby sound.....like you were at a live performance, but out in the lobby listening with the doors closed. I'm not exaggerating.....I was surprised it was so bad considering I didn't have any negative Bose feelings at the time.
My brother ended up with the Fried which were great speakers for the time and system.
I agree with Forever. He is right on the money in my opinion. I can't say what a good speaker sounds like let alone a bad one. I only know what I like!
