I find it difficult to convince people why bose sucks because they have been brainwashed by bose. It usually takes me about 10-20 minutes to convince them and I'm not sure if there is something I can say that will make em shutup. BTW if you can, please list some other reputable sound systems like klipsch.

If they're decided on it, let them go for it

More than likely they have the money and don't care enough to buy another brand

If anything, just take them to a place with both systems side by side. Blindfold them and randomly go through two or three setups including a bose one and let them pick

Go look at their spec sheets and get the frequency ranges and you will see.

Can't find it you say??

i tell them some kid from an online forum who thinks homosexuality should be a form of disability thinks they are bad speakers, therefore they should not waste their money.

I think you should listen to me because I have two bose sound systems at home that I regretfully bought. No one believes me when I say it sucks but it would be nice if I could convince them. They think it's the sh!t when it's not and they are actually really crappy.

Tell them you are a loyal bose customer. That you bought a SECOND one after the first one SUCKED. That and Bose drowns puppies in the blood of dead kittens.

To be honest, there IS a situation where Bose is best - Bose systems perform EXTREMELY well in spaces not suited for a sound system at all. Concrete rooms and Volkswagens, for example.

well I wouldn't say that I "bought" the second one, but I did buy the first one. I "recieved" the second one before I knew about how crappy bose is, it's quite disappointing really. If you had to explain to some one why bose sucks, what would you say?

if you are helping someone make a purchase, tell them that you can probably get better sound quality for a better price. then, have some suggestions ready.

if you are just debating with someone who is a bose-fanboy....drop it. let them "waste" their money as they see fit.

Does that "mean" that you "stole" it from "some" rich "guy's" house"?"

if you really want to know, do a search for Bose here. it's been discussed many, many. many, many times.
