I never buy BOSE. i'd love to see them go bankrupt for overcharging for sound equip.
NO SET OF HEADPHONES should cost $500!!! plus yes, i have heard them. and nope, the Sony cheapies i have sound just as nice if not better for $20.
The WAVE Radio is sucky, if you're using it for a home theatre. sure it's small. but i've heard more bass from a Multiplex from the late '60s. for far less.
BOSE is just another Rolex. for different stuff. Rolex is stupid too. it's a watch. nothing more. i will never see justification or any reason to be 'hot' by paying $10-grand for a watch that does nothing more than tell time just like any old watch. it doesn't tell weather, or ZULU, or anything to be worth paying that much for. as for rich people showing off such high dollar brands, i tell them 'what? you love bragging about wasting money?'
