Technically this is an audio only forum.Talking about Bose is and relates to audio. No rules were broken. However, there is the "vague, undefinable" feeling that most members here would consider Bose to be so "lo-fi" and such poor audio, that they really prefer to not talk about it here.....
Whether or not you consider Bose "good audio," it might be a subject that is better left for other places, - like Audioreview.com.
I suggest that it is best to politely refer folks to audioreview.com. Perhaps some may think my comments are elitist and snobby and this forum should be open to ANY discussion of anything related to audio. They may have a good point. And, ultimately, I can qualify this whole, long, post with the statement that I'm in no way suggesting that the forum names be changed, or rules be created. All I'm suggesting is that if you agree, send them somewhere else. Also, I would never want the "openness" of this forum and the equipment that is discussed to be limited, - or where do we start?, - ultimately, if we don't like the subject matter discussed we don't have to read it.
Personally, I prefer not having to see, and it would be nice if people feel inclined to talk about Bose, - that they go to another, - what I would consider, - more appropriate forum...
