Denon really is on a different level than Bose (though klipsh has some nice products).]]>Mar 17th 2006 2:42PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/http://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/]]>Mar 17th 2006 2:52PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/http://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/
Let's be realistic here -- people in the market for Denon equipment aren't exactly also considering ipod speakers.

Also, if Steve is going to talk about "same but cheaper" someone might want to ask him why his LCD's are priced higher than Dell's, when the panel itself is the same (there was that earlier Engadget post about that last year)? Funny guy.

Also anyone remember this great Apple spoof video? http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=switched.mov

Ok, Bose speakers suck, ask anyone in professional audio. And if I was Mr. Jeff Talmadge I would be insulted that Mr. Jobs says that his Microwave box of an "home stereo system" is on par with Denon products.]]>Mar 17th 2006 3:24PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/http://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/Mar 17th 2006 3:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/http://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/Mar 17th 2006 3:44PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/http://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/
If you'd like to invest in either some 901s or 802s and the matching amplifiers and still say that they're shit, let me know.

We use 802s where i work and they're clear as, with a fantastic bass and sweet mid/treble.]]>Mar 17th 2006 4:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/http://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/
Also, yes, you can have Hi-Fi sounding compressed audio files. They actually did a study on it in a PC mag. Audiophiles could not tell the difference when the MP3 was ripped at 192Kb or higher as compared to an uncompressed AIFF file found on a CD. ]]>Mar 17th 2006 4:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/http://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/Mar 17th 2006 4:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/http://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/Mar 17th 2006 4:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/http://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/
as far as Bose, I've never understood what people think they hear when they listen to bose equipment. The products are cheap and the sound doesn't even compare to other brands half their price. And don't even get me started on Bose' car audio, it's just plain bad.]]>Mar 17th 2006 4:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/http://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/
Who cares?

It's like celebrity boxing. Famous competitors but not true contenders.]]>Mar 17th 2006 4:22PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/http://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/
If you're a professional recording company using Bose speakers, then that's just plain terrible. I'm willing to bet that you're missing some fairly major parts of the sound spectrum.

Do yourself a favor and read this:

Bose is ass. They might sound ok when you don't have anything to compare them to, but sit them next to ANY middle of the road speaker and they will get beat down. Infinity, KEF, Klipsch, Definitive Technology. Def Tech's in particular, as they are Bipolars. If memory serves me, the Bose 802's are bipoles too, and any DefTech's will rape the Bose 802's.]]>Mar 17th 2006 8:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/http://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/

iPods are arguebly the best portable mp3 players and Bose are great at selling their own stuff, their adverts are everywhere. Denon do fairly good hi-fi domestic equipment.

But if you want the best audio quality, where portability and price don't matter, then Linn trouces everyone.]]>Mar 18th 2006 9:13AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/http://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/
You are correct, because we need more second by second coverage of Steve Jobs revealing a $99 sleeve & overpriced crappy countradictory "hifi" speaker system.


@ 25/Chris Gilmour : "iPods are arguebly the best portable mp3 players and Bose are great at selling their own stuff, their adverts are everywhere."

Arguably, iPods suffer the same fate as Bose regarding their quality.



lol @ Steve Jobs even mentioning the iPod Hi-Fi in the same league (or even the same sentence) as a Denon product, dumbass.]]>Mar 18th 2006 1:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/http://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/Mar 19th 2006 3:55AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/http://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/Mar 19th 2006 3:58AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/http://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/
Bose serves a purpose, they make some beautiful lifestyle systems but you can do better for your money it's all down to taste. I agree with Denon though on this one, nothing beats proper hifi even if you are using lowly 128kbps music files.]]>Mar 20th 2006 7:18AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/http://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/Mar 20th 2006 9:02AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/http://www.engadget.com/2006/03/17/denon-hits-back-at-steves-grandiose-statement/http://www.mcintoshlabs.com/

I think some people dunno how to set them up, as I went to a store today with 802s and they sounded crap as anything... why.....? because panaray controller was incorrectly configured. Go figure.

I'm not a yey sayer, just saying - I dont think they are totally ass... maybe the car audio and home audio are different story.]]>Mar 31st 2006 1:11PM
