As I tell everyone who will listen....Bose are good speakers/products for people who don't know better.
And there is much better than Bose...
It's not that Bose are bad products,they are good....but there is so much out there that is just as good,and better than Bose...for far less money.
Folks think they are the shit because they advertise so much...
I use a lot of Cambridge Soundworks products...for the computer,the Extreme build.
Only available on-line for 199 dollars....and they absolutely KILL anything by Bose.The top of the line Bose will cost you 350....and after comparing the two,it was no contest.
I listened to the Bose in a soundroom....had an an older pair of Cambridge Soundworks,and the Bose were not as good as the old pair...so I quickly upgraded.
The bass,the mid-range and the highs were so much more there...the ones I have now are like a set of home speakers for the computer.
And yes,they make an iPod dock system...which if I were in the market,I would check out.
