Maybe if I actually heard one I might be impressed... but I just can't take those things seriously. Even if it sounded really good it would be more appropriate on my desk at work, or for using in hotels when I travel or something.

I have heard one. My friend has one in his kitchen. While it sounds good for a clock radio, I don't think I'd give what they want for it....

Room filling sound, huh??? Don't think so.

Anthony,

With what you would consider "room filling" is akin to that of a rocket taking off!

The wave radio is not a bad product at all, but like everything else adorned with the Bose tag - its robbery at its finest.

I have a bose wave radio/CD, it is an excelent clock radio. :D

PS. For my 20 yr aniversary at work, I had a choice of the bose or a crystal vase, it was a no brainer.

Anyone else notice that one of the new "features" is no buttons. Everything is controlled by the small remote control. Lose that and you have a $500 clock.

No Thanks,

Looks like they trademarked the word "wave". I suppose we'll see a bunch a frivolous lawsuits in the near future against anything with 'wave' in it.

they'd be worth the money if they were closer to the $200 range. Oh wait, it's Bose... it's worth $500. :rolleyes:

I love the idea of a high speed alarm clock, and the look and function of the Bose....but the price tag is utterly ridiculous.

It's insulting for them to price their products like they do, especially to those of us who know better sound is NOT found in Bose.

I sell bose at my work and got caught having to be PC with a customer today. He actually said "So do you have any other stuff that kicks as much ass as bose or are they really the best shit out there?" He said this while standing in a room with the LSi setup off Denon equipment with a Sunfire sub... Two drops of pee came out.

It's an amazing marketing machine. They are just doing what any smart business should do - get as much money from perfectly willing customers as you can. How many thouasands of fools have these things at $500 a pop?

I agree that Bose has to be some of the best marketing I've ever seen.

A close second has to be GM building $50-60K SUVs and making people think they are getting a new and improved version of the original Hum Vees!:D :D :D

A lot of people that have a fair amount of money are less than stellar thinkers. Or haven't you noticed?

The Bose Wave Radio goes good with a lot of things. Wine, cigars, golf, tasteful home decor, trendy clothes, SUV's, etc., etc.
It seems to clash with music however.

I'm really proud of this post I just did. #1358. I like that number.

Best thing about that Bose radio... if you lose the remote, you can't control a gosh darn thing. All of the functionality is on the remote, the credit card sized, little dinky, remote.
