I normally wouldn't waste my money on something like this but Best Buy had a screamin 18 month payment plan PLUS I got a $60 gift card with the deal so I'm a happy happy boy tonight

Whatever I listened to today > whatever you listened to today. Because I picked this baby up earlier and I'm in audio heaven right now. Nice purchase. However, since you said whatever you listened to was better, is that beauty better sounding than these?

Hah oh I see, we've got a one-upper in the house...
How much did those set you back?
EDIT: Yikes! Nevermind, found the info. I bet those babies are like swimming in a pool of music notes!

Ha, I thought, "this is one-upping, I shouldn't do this," but my competitive side came through. I only mentioned it because of your challenge.
It costs me 52 cents per day. Everything is relative.

That sounds absolutely 100% worth it, when you put it that way.

Haha touche, sir. This was my first Bose purchase and I finally understand the hype. I seriously want to re-listen to my entire music collection because everything I've listened to so far has been like hearing the songs for the first time.

That would honestly be a TOUGH decision for me if I had plans to get inked anytime soon. Since it's your first tat though, ink wins by far.

I've been trying to decide if I should go with Bose, Sennheiser or Audio-Technica. I can read online reviews all day, but it doesn't compare to hearing it for myself.
know ID yuh, was there anything specifically about the Bose that set it apart from the competition for you?

Bose is the best. Customers who write reviews for Sennheiser or anyone else who say different are brand snobs. Bose is the best. I've got one of these: with a peripheral iPod dock and of course it is the best sound you could hope to achieve from a little unit like that. It's fallen slightly into disuse in favor surround sound speakers which admittedly don't have Bose quality sound but are able to achieve true stereo sound.

I got the sound dock as a christmas gift last year, and it has gotten all kinds of use. I love it. Never buying a bigger stereo for a single room ever again. I would consider the above model for a living room though.

I loved the letter that came in the packaging of the unit. They're so rightfully arrogant about their product, I definitely appreciate that in a company.
Anyway...

I want to point out that my Bose is the same model as the one in the picture I posted, but it is black, which is far more badass.

Holy FUCK the Stone Roses self-titled remaster is glorious sounding on this thing. Instead of using the stereo in my work van I brought the bose with me for my listening pleasure today

Is that the new MG album? Nope...it's their last album from 2009. The new one is All Eternals Deck and if I'm not mistaken it doesn't come out until next month. It should be a gooder if the song they played on Lettermen is any indication.
