All due respect, but you can't compare bose home audio to sommercial

marketed.  Kudos for doing such a great job in the marketing dept...
Bose live sound gear is much better but I'd still take my mackie and
JBL equipment any day over the bose stuff.

It's sort of like comparing A Ford Excursion to to a Ford Contour. Two different things from the same family that can really be
compared. Of course some folks love Ford over Chevy and visversa. Others still, hate them both and drive Subarus.

Some information here at: www.bose.com. There's a drop-down menu

on the


first page that will take you right to the PAS page (the URL to go

navigating


from the front page would most likely work better).

Looks interesting, but the aesthetic statement is very weird (a

squat


powered base that seems to serve as the amplifier, surmounted by a

pole


or "cylindrical radiator" that seems to act as the speaker; the

whole


rig looks to be six or seven feet tall). I see that you can try

one for


45 days risk-free according to Bose's site.

I haven't tried it, but I recently bought a surround sound system

and


did a lot of research in newsgroups. There are a lot of strong

opinions


about Bose products in general. There's a sizeable group of people

who


take a very negative view. The general negative view is cheap components in an unusual looking box. I don't know enough about the

technical side to make an informed judgement.

You might want to reread my post. I may be ignorant, but I admitted it up front.


It's possible that a company can have lines of industrial and consumer products and have similar quality standards for both--or not.
