Bose Sound Review

This is another Bose Sound Review and it's just sound. People wanted better sound quility so I tried my best to get it done. I hooked up my studio equipment to give you the best sound possible.

Trying to get an audio impression of the BOSE from a recording is absolutely redundant. By the time the audio from the speakers is recorded and "reproduced" by the speakers on the other end, it would have been severely changed/degraded. They are NOT hearing what you are hearing. Imagine someone uploading a video of an HD picture from a 42" plasma onto YouTube trying to convince people how nice it looks... yeah... Kudos on the effort though =] seems you really enjoy them BOSE speakers.

I love my Bose. I just made this video so it sounded a little better because the Camera compression made them sound like crap.

Real audio, tube amps, or mosfet types, Bose is overrated, if you go to a store they put those tiny cubes by your ear, any speaker will sound good at the range. Like I said I had bose, and the are underwelming, a pair of athena's will blow them away, better specs, bose will not post because they are so inaccurate.

[technologydude]

I don't have the cubes.

What is your sound recording setup?

Sounds good btw. Especially for youtube compression.

[technologydude]

Thanks! I used a simple 8 Track mixer and a MXL mic since its the only equipment i can move!!

[jasonsr3]

that is the best sound I ever heard a bose spkr. make, silence.

Technologydude, you need to visit a real hifi audio store and hear speakers from Paradigm, Dynaudio, B&W, Focal, Wilson, Epos, or other high-end audio brands. I think you will have an epiphany about the staggering difference in sound quality. It's like comparing a 18MP Canon DSLR to a 2MP cell phone camera, or DVD to HD. The first time I went to a high end store my jaw hit the floor. It sounded beyond good, it sounded REAL. I walked out of the store with a new understanding of what hifi means.

The GMW (Google Money Whores) have disabled yet another audio track.

[MyRandomReviews]

Not to mention having the audio completely muted by YouTube. LOL

Never heard of SLS so I checked them out.

Pretty interesting idea and their stuff reminded me of my old Monsoon PC Speakers. Those sounded nice, but I sold them to get the companion 3s.

JBL is a really good standered you allways know what your getting but as far as suround sound for the cash I like the SLS ribbon tweeter for home sound wear a long throw isen't needed also really good in reverbant room

I have Illusion Audio LM-804s and Silver Flute W20s that extend past 3kHz on-axis with zero break up modes before that point. But I guess you're an informed audio engineer - where were you for AES Spain?

Peace, go buy JBL or apparently build your own speakers.

pt 2 What's even worse is the poor choice of crossover frequencies: An 8" woofer (with a 6.375" effective operating diameter) should never be allowed to operate past 2kHz, and a 6.5" woofer should never go over 2.5kHz -- but Bose used a 3.5 to 4kHz crossover point with those tweeters, causing a suck-out in the upper midrange frequencies
