...PLUG THE HOLE! I ain't kiddin'! Let me tell my story...

I have a Bose AM3 system that I hate very much... So, I was
walking around the basement today when I came across some
open-cell sponge foam. I decided to tape this substance to
the front of the Bose Acoustimass module and was surprised
to find how it improved the sound. It made the bass softer
and less "boomy" and it even made the whole system sound a
little better than it used to.

Here's some pics of the Acoustimass Module...

So, what do ya' think?

Note: This is somewhat of a joke... Bose speakers sound much
better when you leave them at the store.

Glad ya' liked it! ...Strangely, it really does work!

I think I'm gonna' leave it this way until I get my Wharfedale
Diamond 8.2 bookshelf speakers.

Note: The Acoustimass Module is NOT a subwoofer, it's a 5.5''
woofer mounted in a dual-tuned bandpass box.

"How to make a Bose Acoustimass Module sound better"

First you need to locate a BFH this is a technical term
who's acronym stands for Big (Explative) Hammer. What steps
you take from this point is entirely up to you.

That statement completely redefines the term "Bose-Bashing!"

LMAO!!!
