While I tend to agree with most that Bose in the home is more a function
of marketing genius than good engineering, I really do like Bose car
audio. I think the 'compromise' engineering in sound bodes very well in
the compromise audio environment of the automobile. What say you all?

They also make very high quality noise-cancelling headphones for use
in aircraft, but these here debates tend to centre around their
domestic audio products. You might indeed argue that the proven
engineering expertise of Bose in the OEM car audio and
professional/military markets makes their domestic offerings an even
*more* cynical exercise in ripping off their main customer base.

I never travel on airplanes without Bose noise-cancelling headphones. I
often wear them just to suppress the cabin noise, but they can be very
helpful in improving the intelligibility of the in-air entertainment. They
are also excellent for plugging into one's laptop in a hotel room to watch
a DVD.

I also have a Wave radio on my nightstand, and I find it a perfectly
pleasant way of waking me up in the morning to the strains of the local
classical musical station.

But this is where my interest in Bose products ends.
