No highs, no lows - must be BOSE


Bose_Ad

Those who know ObR know that ObR is into stereo equipment. ObR likes to blast Ravi Shankar and watch 9/11 action replays on his home theatre system. The 1979 Iran hostage crisis is also ObR's favorite home-theatre footage. Oh yeah, Okama also likes to listen to belly dance music too with the volume knob turned way past 11. ObR hates corporate crap though, and there is one specious company that comes to mind that bothers him. ObR is sad that Dr. Amar Gopal Bose, a fellow towelhead (he is Bengali) has sold out to the masses. ObR will attempt to debunk some 'Bose myths.' Hold on to your seatbelts boys and beeyotches because ObR is going to spread his venom!

- "Better Sound Through Research" - First of all, Bose speakers sound like s#!t! Go to any recording studio, high-end audio store, or Okama’s cave dwelling and one will never find any Weapons of Bose Destruction.
- Bose® Direct/Reflecting® speaker technology - Pure B.S. No speaker in a recording studio uses this design. What about at home? If anything, one has to minimize reflections so one needs to point the speakers toward the listener stoopid idiot!
- Bose® Acoustimass® speaker technology - A fancy name for what is called a bandpass sixth-order enclosure. Of course, if anyone tries to build one and sell it, Bose's corporate lawyers will be knocking on your door suing your a$$.
- Acoustic waveguide speaker technology - This is nothing new ignoramus. It's just a marketing-enhanced bulls#!t misnomer for a type of loudspeaker enclosure called 'transmission line'. Of course Bose patents the stupid thing and then sends out corporate lawyers to sue 'patent infringers.'
- Jewel Cube® speakers - Haven't you heard of 'tweeters' you gaylord?

Okama thinks Mr. Bose should go back to India to watch 5-hour Bollywood movies eating tikka masala with his dirty gaylord hands.

Comments:
It woke up the entire industry because it showed that Bose found a new way to market outrageously overpriced inferior audio equipment.
 
I thought the ObR might have even more insight into Bose and more salient comments. It's as if he has teased me. I feel so used...dirty even.

I hunger for the knowledge that is ObR.
