Yeah, of course listening (or should it be hearing?) isn't all subjective. Eh, heh, I got that one a little wrong since I guess I meant a bit of both. So, for reference most people would have, for example, their car stereos. Compared to that, the Bose speakers probably sound a cut above...

I really don't think it matters if Bose is made of questionable material or not, or even if they charge an arm and a leg. Fact is, listening is all subjective and if the most exposure most people have are coming from their car stereo, then sure Bose products are going to sound great. My...

Well, this thread went OT real quick. :D Say, didn't Bose make innovations in the past? Surely Bose did some good things to establish their...erm, reputation...

Hello, first post here and I had a question that is probably pretty easy. I have a JVC XV-D723GD DVD player (progressive, DTS, DD5.1, DVD-A, VCD) and my question basically is, Why do I need a receiver in this case? Or would I? There are speaker connections in the rear (rear, center, front...
