In a LOT of posts around here, I have seen a number of individuals (possibly members of the professional installers community) who seem to have a serious axe to grind with Bose speaker systems.

Although Bose speakers are consistently rated as having good or very good sound quality in consumer journals, it seems they get a HEAP of ANGRY & FLAMING criticism (far and away beyond just an "I don't like how they sound" opinon) from some members of this site.

Why all the hatred and animosity? Is there some financial motivation? They're just speakers, after all and everyone's tastes are different.
