Interesting comment on Bose Speakers.....

 I’ve heard quite a few audiophile speakers that used expensive drivers in ways that...well, didn’t suit my taste. Quite a few speakers using Focal tweeters made me feel like that guy in the movie Seven Beauties who went to “better  @@%%@!. Say what you want about Bose but a Bose speaker never made me want to leave the room.

Pure marketing and deception of the American public,

 

There is no deception.  The Bose standard is what it is.  Where is the deception?

From a value proposition, Bose carefully tests what consumers like to hear, and crafts products that match that. They make it look slick, like Apple does, and charges out the nose.  That is pure product development science.

I guess I don’t understand something. (Actually,I don’t understand a lot of things, but that’s another topic) I don’t recall the OP coming out and announcing that Bose is better than Wilson,or any other brand. He likes the sound. Okay. Fair enough.  While they not be some folks cup of tea,is there any product out there that is universally liked,with not one criticism?  I guess I’ve learned in life to pick my battles wisely. The kind of gear someone likes or dislikes is not going to be something I’m going to battle over.

Bose did it's research and created exactly what the consumer market wanted, a little loudspeaker that sounded like a big one. They sold like hot cakes in spite of being pretty bad from an audiophile perspective. Such is the power of the Female, the type that our soon to be supreme justice can't explain.
