Anyone who would buy them after hearing real speakers must be a (girl' zee)?
There is no truth anymore. Only assertions. The internet world has no interest in truth, only vindication for preconceived assumptions.

The "L" in Bose is invisible but not silent: B(L)ose.

But the highs and lows are.
Manuals?! We don't need no stinking manuals! a.. er..

Has a nice 'ring' to it!

Bose believes there could be confusion caused between CEDIA's use of the term "Electronic Lifestyles" and it's own "Lifestyle Systems".

It is still on going.

That was taken by Carter Wallace. They too soon changed the name to "Magnum Lifestyle"
