Before you buy bose......!!!!!

If you were thinking of buying some Bose speakers, why not instead stuff mice with speech impediments into your ears or, as a road test, try asking people to speak to you only while holding their hand in front of their mouth for a day.
If you suffer from that disease that allows you to purchase items from television infomercials, than Bose is the cure for you. Completely disregard the fact that the demonstration of sound is actually a demonstration of the speakers built into your own television and call that 1-800 number immediately!
Still unsure? Well, let's look at the facts. Ever notice how Bose speakers and all the rest of the speakers are placed at opposite ends of the store? Well that's not because they sound so terrible that they would never sell after a comparison as the rumors say. No sir, that's because they need their own space to really perform as they are a bit shy much like that dancing frog from the diner. As a matter of fact they are so shy that they actually sound their best when no one is listening.
Another "rumor" floating around is that they don't use a tweeter which is totally false. Bose has been using their state of the art silent invisible tweeter design for years. Folks this I swear, you can't find a company that will allow you to pay two thousand dollars for smaller speakers than Bose. Plastic is the new wood. All guitars, violins, grand pianos are all leaving the rich dynamic sound of wood in the dust where it belongs. Horrible scratchy noise is the new fidelity. Who needs quality speakers when you know you're just pirating mp3's without bothering to check the bitrate anyways. 320's? Why bother bogging down your router when you can download 128's and not even notice with your new Bose sound system!
Now, they may not sound as good as one of those sound bars, but look how great they look up there on your wall! That's what it's about isn't? Form before function I always say. There is nothing I hate more than a big chunky speaker that sounds amazing.

Really? Another bash on Bose rant?

This is really the wrong site to start off with it since almost everyone here is fully aware of the wonder that is(n't) Bose and talks about it regularly.

Just for fun, we can talk about how much better Monster Cable products are as well if you would like.

I like a good Bose Bash Fest as much as the next Audioholic, but really, unless someone is about to walk down that road and is asking for advice, then just posting about their product seems kind of harsh. Especially without the links to those websites which have performed the reviews of the Bose products and shows just how they don't stack up and exactly why they don't.

Still, people will buy their product because the people buying from those infomercials have no interest in showing up and asking a question about their purchase until AFTER they have made it, then they just want agreement that their purchase decision was excellent.
