4est Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 I have installed a number of Bose pro audio systems in bars and arenas and can tell you flat out it is junk (tiny magnets, stamped steel baskets ect...) as with all of their stuff. If a performer were to CHOOSE to use their gear, it would be because they thought they SHOULD, not because it sounded any better. In reality though, most performers just use what is available to them.

Brian A Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 You'll never know until you try them. I've always wanted a 1968 Camaro, even though I know they drive like crap. Chacun à son goût.

coot Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 We have a 2002 Acura MDX with the Bose DeLuxe audio system. It is far and away THE worst audio of any in the 36 vehicles we have owned over the years. The bass is horribly exaggerated even turned all the way down. We never even turn music on anymore. Otherwise it's a terrific vehicle. Link to comment
Paul R Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 But I know I will regret it. I'm afraid that instead of a Camaro, I'll wind up with a Corvaire... -Paul Anyone who considers protocol unimportant has never dealt with a cat DAC. Robert A. Heinlein Link to comment
rlnt500 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Brian A With regards to the Camaro, you say that you wanted one even though you knew it didn't drive nice. Did you even listen to it first, or did you just get that from magazine reviews? Link to comment
Brian A Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Listen to it???!!!??? That's the problem; 1968 Camaros come with a wonderful soundtrack courtesy of an American V8 and a four barrel carburetor.
