The total picture is what's key. It would be like Lewis without Martin, the Yang without the Ying. Cd with frontal area. Madison Ave. if you will.

The Bose has ridiculous wattage, more than 200. But when you see the THD figure you realize how bogus it is. To think that Subaru installs McIntosh. Got Bose?

No doubt. Pure garbage (with French accent). But they had a graduate from my alma mater that founded the co. and knew how to market. My grandpa had 901 Series V in his house, said they were garbage too.

It's really surprising to see Lexus do Mark Levinson and Subaru do McIntosh. Pick up an issue of Audiophile and you will see those 2 names. I doubt you'll find any Bose. But Framingham MA sure loves the man!

Nah. I was philosophy then LLB from PENN. Now I'm 27 and wound up working in IS. But since IT is kinda of wavering, probably will go back to legal or maybe tax accounting. That's why we busted on you not knowing the SS cap! And you couln't even search on Google before acting so ***** and giving a wrong answer! six figures huh

Bose home audio isnt all that good either. Again, you wont find a whole lot of references to Bose in any of the major audiophile publications.
