I have one of those Bose Wave radios that I bought for my wife many years back. Yup, it sounds good, but I have a major problem if I want to try to make it sound better to my personal taste.

Bose engineers did not include any sort of tone control on it, stating in essence that they know what's best for me in my rooms and there is no need for me to be able to adjust what they considered, in the lab, to be the perfect balance.

So why would they bother to publish the specs for the amps and the speakers on PA system that costs way more then the competition's?

I think maybe...........

perceived reputation?

It's kind of like those companies selling the audio cables that cost hundreds, and at times, thousands of dollars. It's mostly all hype and if you go and buy a decent $20 guitar cable, it will sound exactly like the one costing hundreds with the fancy name and specs that have a difference in performance that is only detectable in a lab with state of the art test gear.

just another 2 cents into the conversation
