I'm a Bose hater, but the sound system in my Audi is bangin...

But the price tag on that thing is exactly why I'm a Bose hater.

Bose makes great budget audio setups for people who need to put stuff in small spaces. Too bad they always seem to add a digit to the price. :)

humm 5,349 for a 46in LCD of unknown quality with simulated sound or 2000$ for a 50+ in plasma and 3.3k to spend on a sound system

hell or just a normal priced TV and a 200$ soundbar

you should be a bose hater.

I should....I actually worked there on a coop and actually worked on a patent for them from the beginning. The end result.....they did not even want to give me an interview after I graduated. No hard feelings... :(. Oh well, unlike there, I am actually allowed to have coffee and food at my desk. ():)

Double ouch. You think you got a good deal and you think they sound great. That's one of the systems that you can hear voices coming out of the "subwoofer".

Not all Bose are bad. the old 901's were pretty well regarded. most that just bash any product, yet alone Bose are usually talking out of their asses anyway.

Bose is the Monster Cable of the audio, and now apparently the video world.

Good Christ. That's outrageous.
