Bose System II means what??? |
|
|
I am looking at a Bose Lifestyle 8 system. It does not seem to be "Series
II". Presumably, it is the version before System II.
What difference is there between the systems?

The previous post seems to reflect the general low regard many |
knowledgeable people feel toward the sound quality of Bose speakers. I
don't think Bose is necessarily a bad product but I am amazed that they
are able to get the prices they get in a competitive marketplace. An ex
employee of Bose once told me that he had worked for a marketing company
that happened to make speakers. Buy Bose? If I were asked to advise a
consumer looking for good performance at a competitive price I wouldn't
suggest Bose. If I were to advise a consumer looking to impress his wife
and other people who knew little about speakers, and to whom cost was
irrelevant I could recommend Bose because the general public has great
respect for the name, it sounds fine to most people, and their stuff
looks downright cute.

I would recomend the person just use his tv set as his sound system. Most are
of a far higher quality than bose and most have better than 2.5" drivers. They
sure are a hell of a lot less boomy.
$1500 for the sound of a $50 boom box. Amazing. |
