Off-topic BOSE discussion

You are the one that mentioned what a system should go down to in order to be considered excellent; I merely responded what mine goes down to as you inferred that I was suggesting that 35Hz is “excellent”, which is unfounded. So you obviously care otherwise you wouldn’t have mentioned it to begin with.

I pointed out several misleading statements on BOSE’s website. There is a bloody good reason why BOSE don’t post measurements of their products and why they sue anyone that does for using unproven measuring techniques (despite every other speaker manufacturer on the planet agreeing with them) and that’s because they DON’T PLAY LOW’s, they DON’T PLAY CLEAR and they DON’T PLAY HIGH!

One wonders with YOUR insistence that BOSE somehow has products that aren’t a total ripoff, when everyone in the industry that doesn’t work for BOSE knows they don’t, which company YOU work for. Solid products? Untreated 2” manilla hemp cones? Frequency response that misses almost 50% of what the average person can hear? Good engineering your say? Solid products? Please, pull the other leg, it’s got bells on! You must take people here as common fools.

We have a very low failure rate with Bose products, and a very few unhappy customers. How about this, we have a higher failure rate with Runco than we do Bose.

I will ask again, not sure why but here goes:

Show me a 5.1 system (with in-wall AND on-wall options, in addition it in-floor sub options), with a receiver, AM/FM tuner, DVD player, a self-calibration system (similar to audyessy), a hard drive, an RF remote, and the ability to control 15 different zones of music (2 different sources). And show me all of that with the aesthetics of the Bose system, and that costs no more than $2000.

Obviously that isnt important to you. But believe it or not, you arent the only consumer on earth. And the people who do need this type of system are not "common fools"

Flexing your system "muscle", or justifying the flexing. Not sure which is funnier.

"deep" is still subjective.

You can have the last word, I am done.

The best part about roughly 75% of this thread is that none of you have heard, worked with, or used Bose products. Ignorance is bliss I suppose.
