I love it when people say that Bose is not taken seriously by the rest of
the industry...of course if you are referring to the so called HIGH
END...there is a great reason why...because the high end hates Bose and the
901 and generally will go to great lengths to deter people from giving the
speakers any credibility by using the same stupid excuses like "older
technology", Direct/Reflecting sound obscures the image rather than
enhances it, no direct competition in the particular store of purchase etc.
etc. I, for one DO NOT play politics nor will I succumb to these ploys by
the so called experts who have their noses too high in the air that they
cannot even smell what life is made of. Thanks anyway for your comments.

BOSE are the worst speaker company of all at doing exactly what you
have just stated. Overpricing their underperforming speakers to appeal
to exactly that sort of buyer. The sort where image and price are more
important than performance and listening pleasure.

Next you'll be telling us that B&O are reasonably priced with 'high
end' (whatever that is) sound.

If the BOSE technology were so great, why then are they the only (?)
people creating reflex speakers for the home market?
