By the way the folks that say Bose sucks

I never heard anyone say that Bose speakers suck (or blow), but I have heard many many times that they are overpriced. My listening experiences with them has always been positive, but I never purchased or owned any myself.
 
My stupid car has a Bose "system" in it (RSX-S), and I know it sucks. It also blows.

I would replace it with an alpine or something but I know that as soon as I do it, someone's going to smash my window and take it. 🙁
 
If the Mercedes S-class has Bose, then I must say I am impressed.

I've only heard Bose in car audio.... so my comments only reflect that segment.

I specifically avoided the Blose stereo package when I bought my car. God knows the factory stereo (non-Blose) sucked but the Blose crap would have made upgrading much more difficult. Not to mention the fact that the factory Blose sucks horse cock.

They are decent speakers. But with the money you'd spend on Bose take it elsewhere and buy something better.


Only when wired with Monster Cable Van de graaff Elite Edition with equipotential rings to reduce transisent intermodulation distortion for cleaner mids and stratospheric highs that will take your breath away. :Q

:laugh:

The saying is that "Bose Blows".

In more ways than one, too. The stock system in Nissans is known for blowing out. The amplifiers in the speakers burn out prematurely.
 
Bose is on par with, say, a GPX alarm clock from 5 years ago. Paper cones, crap surrounds, small inefficient magnets, piss-poor cross overs. Essentially you pay a ton of money for a $99 HTIB.

I know. But I had to get the Bose system in my RSX-S!!! 🙁 No options!! Oh well. I should have bought a 350Z.

All the women on this board are smarter than me. 🙁 Will you marry me so we can produce ultra intelligent babies? 😀

Well not officially yet, but used a lot in audio speak. Satisfactory wasn't registered in the dictionary for a long time, but was highly accepted by marketing.

Yup, they suck in terms of value, but not absolutely

There are enough base RSX drivers running around who would gladly pay to take the Bose system off your hands (as long as you offer a good price).

Then, just upgrade...
