So if you haven't heard them, and "can't pass judgement on the sound" --
DON'T! Meat is a well respected and qualified poster on here, and he
certainly doesn't need you to tell him that he is any kind of "mental
defective". Coming from you, that's a real joke. Sheesh.
You have an annoying habit of considering people who disagree with you as
stupid.
You're just so predictable. Do you have "Bose detector software" running on
your computer? Ooh, Bose. Ooh here comes good 'ol Bill Sommerwhatsit to
stick his oar in and start bleating about what rubbish the kit is.
Mr. Daily, every time I start to think you have some sense, you blow it. Did
you actually read what I wrote? Or is plain English incomprehensible to you?
Mr. Plow got it, and laughed, as I intended.
I've found that stupid, mean-spirited people are the first to poke fun at my
name. You're obviously disturbed that anyone dares to disagree with the
omniscient Mr. Daily, and can't refrain from attacking them. A person who is
so disturbed (as you are) that other people hold differing opinions is
neither mature nor intelligent.
I've been seriously auditioning "good" audio equipment for more than 30
years, and I reviewed it for more than a decade. I have a published track
record -- and some respect -- as a person who knows the difference between
accurate and inaccurate reproduction. I know a thing or two.
One of those things is that full-range dynamic drivers aren't usually very
good. Particularly when made of paper, they tend to have a dry, flat, rather
grainy sound, which is probably the result of high IM. Using a separate mid
and tweeter generally results in cleaner, more-transparent sound. On this
basis, a properly designed two-way system (which the Sony probably is) is
likely to be better than the single driver used in the Bose.
Do you have experience with live recording? Do you have a really good audio
system? If you don't, then SHUT UP about things you have little knowledge
of. Your opinions of the _absolute_ quality of the Bose Wave Radio is not
consistent with that of most experienced listeners, so I see no reason why I
should have any general respect for your opinions.
My point -- which was perfectly clear -- was not that Mr. Plow should not
have bought the Bose, but that he should not have bought it without
auditioning other products. If he did, and he likes the Bose, then who am I
to disagree?
One of the things I like best about my friends is that most of them are
aware, as I am of myself, that they don't know everything. You, Mr. Daily,
are dull, humorless ignoramus.
