ok im totally not interested in bose but searching their site i found that they don't post any thiele small parameters on anything...i was kinda wondering why this is their response to my email... Dear Mr. Carlson, Bose does not publish these specifications. The reason for this is that we believe that such statistics do not add very much to an understanding of an audio product's acoustic characteristics and, even worse, can be misleading. Audio manufacturers make these measurements independent of industry standards, and in varying conditions. Additionally, a single statistic is not a reliable measurement of a product's performance. One could, for instance, find a very expensive system with exactly the same specifications as a much less expensive system. On paper, the two would appear identical. The difference in performance, however, would be significant. A better approach, we feel, is to listen to the product. We strongly urge you to make your own comparisons. Bose systems will surpass your expectations. Thank you for contacting Bose Corporation. Aric MacDonald Ext. 61068 Customer Support Team ok now im not an expert in audio but dont the theile small parameters have everything to do with how the speaker performs...they can be misleading to a person that doesn't know what they mean but for someone who knows what they are doing they tell you a lot about driver and its capabilty...is it just me or is bose trying to hide something...im gona research this more... |

They actually wrote back? Having the gonads to actually market the stuff goes far enough, doesn't it? I have heard a not bad Bose lifestyle(32?) But the holes are pretty blatant. But the price? Oy! |

No war hear, only peace. If you didn't know the holes were there, you would be happy. But once you find the holes... |

T/S parameters apply to individual drivers, not speaker systems. Does Bose sell individual drivers? |
