Jim,
The name calling is uncalled for. We're just talkin' here. That's what I mean by testy.
My observations on stereo in a large room are not speculation - they are researched, tested responses from many different areas of application.

I agree - there are MANY fine systems available, and I have used almost all of them, but I'm trying to share a breakthrough with an uneducated buyers group here. This is a whole new ball game, and I think it's exciting. The stereo sample issue is further punctuated by my original rule of thumb - KB's NEED to have speakers on board. That way, the original tone comes through in the performers face. How you make it louder for a larger area is still loaded with options. The Bose is just one of the newest, coolest options that needs a better understanding before it's accepted.
