No God No! Say it Ain’t So!

+1 (I agree, he has NO idea.)

Many people just don’t understand how holding companies and combination of brands work. There at least as many successful combinations, enabling niche brands to spend more on R&D and marketing then there are bad stories.

Everyone just needs to calm down and see how this plays out.

Bose alegedly has bought audio legend Mcintosh ! and Sonus Faber !
see YT videos for perspective !

BOSE they cannot get any good reputation,nor + press or even acceptance among audiophiles by actually producing good great products fr their own creations, workers, engineers so can use the vast $$$$ estate Mr Bose left to buy quasi legitimacy by purchasing legit audio legends !
they are well-heeled corporate raiders!

BOSE makes nothing but s$#% products and never did anything except be the most notorious to rip off and defraud the audio public w/ deceptive slick marketing and shamefully corrupt sales practices.
they have more attorneys than engineers and a case about their s$%# products ended up in the supreme ct ! ( they sued a magazine reviewer! -PS they lost ! ) 

I sadly have a car w/ a Very expensive optional BOSE system ( I am 4th owner i did not choose it ) and their typical level of nonexistent consumer assistance was illustrated by them just telling me to "contact my dealer " ( whom promptly advised I contact Bose as they were profoundly sorry they ever let BOSE do a system for them ( and NEVER will again! )!!!!!

PS this guy Jay’s Audio Lab is as dishonest as 3 $ bill! he is an insufferable boor! 
catch his video about high-end cables his panel could not tell difference in a blind test and he dismissed them saying " they needed to let the cables bed in w/ some hours of listening " ! LOL
OK so he never repeated the test after doing that !

watch the idiot bots here try to say yt links are attempts to contact someone! NOT

Bose is a well respected player in the professional and consumer audio world and is SO much better than Clarion to take the reigns here. I have trust that they will help maintain (or build) the McIntosh brand and keep the quality levels up.

It’s a sad day.  It’s as absurd as appointing Dr. Oz to an important Cabinet position.

Oh wait, did those two things happen in the same week?

I was attempting to explain the significance of this event to my wife.  I told her that it was like KMart acquiring Norman Marcus
