funny thread
true story
the company I sold hi end audio for in college had the bose line. Many people would call up looking for Bose, and I would suggest that they bring in music they were familiar with and I would demo the bose and another even more impressive speaker. After a short conversation on their equipment, room size, type of music, I would choose an appropriate speaker. I could take virtually any two way speaker in the store, do an a/b comparison with the 901's and sell them a pair of the other speaker. I never bad-mouthed Bose, I merely let them hear the difference themselves, and they would rave to their friends about this speaker that was even more revealing than the Bose. Our store NEVER SOLD ANY BOSE all the time it existed, but their marketing was so good, it drew people from miles away.
I would be conservative in saying that 20% of my speaker clients were those shopping for Bose, so thanks ...
never understood the concept of a Bose 901 speaker
1 mushy driver up front and 8 mushy drivers reflected off the back - sounds like a great way to get pinpoint imaging
if they do that with the military
we would have a plane that shoots heat seeking missles that take an orbit around the earth then find their target ;-)
oh well
