Speakers: all-time worst

I have to say, probably the ABSOLUTE WORST I have heard are an old pair of Jensons a friend of mine had (not any more!). But I have to disagree with the opinions of the Klipsch speakers. I just auditioned the new RFs last night at a hi-fi shop, and I was quite pleased. Not exactly audiophile quality by all means, but they beat most I've heard. I like the horn design. But everyone has their own opinions, and we all like our music to sound a bit different.

You guys should hop on over to audioreview's site and read "Jimmy"'s 4/30/00 incredibly insightful Bose 901 review :)

Bose is certainly in the running as is Cerwin-Vega but also many of the Japanese electronics makers speakers were gawd-awful! Plus packaged "Surround sound" systems with quantity 5.1 clock radio speakers included may open up a few new competitors for the "crown"

Bose SUCK, so does Klipsh. I really don't know which is worse. I also think Polk Audio and Infinity suck. I really think KLH must be the best I've heard. Whatcha think guys?

I think this particular group of responses is a fine break in an otherwise pretty serious group of postings. Thank goodness Mr. Bose made so much money selling his product to the general public, otherwise, we would not have nearly so much fun here at Audiogon! After all, "We deserve a break today" and Bose is pretty much McDonalds. (Sorry in advance to you who like Chicken Nuggets!)
