Chops, your not a jerk for defending Bose. I think everyone ever born, likes low fi products of some type......
I swear, you people are just as rediculous, shallow, and completely ignorant as every other idiot on these so-called audio forums. Just like all of the other forums, everybody has to jump on the moron bandwagon express. Hey, someone's talking about Bose, lets go make fun of them and bash the company... But most of this is coming from rich, eragant idiots that would rather spend thousands of dollars on highly overpriced, large, resonating, non-braced cabinets containing a large PAPER driver and a couple of horns. Big f%$#ing deal! But Bose is over priced??? PPLLEEAASSEE.... And yes, I CAN comment because my brother is using a pair on old Cornwalls. They're certainly nothing spectacular to say the least and certainly nowhere worth the asking price. I've owned a couple of Klipsch models myself but later sold them. I was never too thrilled about the "in your face" horn sound, but never had a reason to join some forum just to say Klipsch sucks and are way over priced. At least, not until now. Chops is the only one hear with any brains. I personally own a pair of Bose 301 series IV, 201 series IV and will be soon receiving a nice pair of 601 series II's. And if the 601's sound anywhere as open, non colored, and realistic as my 301's, then I'm going to be in for a real treat. And you people call yourselves audiophiles.. Give me a break. Gee, I didn't know that megaphones and P.A. speakers could be classified in that catagory. You never see them in Stereophile magazine??? HHHMMM, I wonder why.... I guess the "even richer" snobs would be up in arms about comparing horn speakers to their $50,000 wastes of money. But, what would I know? I like lo-fi Bose... Unbelievable.
