Interesting comment on Bose Speakers.....


 I’ve heard quite a few audiophile speakers that used expensive drivers in ways that...well, didn’t suit my taste. Quite a few speakers using Focal tweeters made me feel like that guy in the movie Seven Beauties who went to “better  @@%%@!. Say what you want about Bose but a Bose speaker never made me want to leave the room.

FWIW, one of Wilson's midranges by SB acoustics was around $65 several years ago. you asked. is it worth it in a $25k-$50k speaker?? depends on the buyer. to me it's not.

Pull a driver on a Devore 10k speaker and you will reveal a rather simple looking paper driver......

I guess some will consider these crap.

Paper drivers have alot to offer in overall sound.

Actually I prefer them for timbre.

 Ishkababble:  You started this thread in praise of Bose, fine. Now you've started a straw man argument that anyone that disagrees with you is a " basher " and on some kind of bandwagon. There are many brands Ive encountered along the way that Ive never had the desire or finances to purchase, and having heard Bose many times thru the years I can say they are at the top of that list. As has been stated prior in this thread and many others, if you're happy with them that is all that matters, no need to insult people.
