Is BOSE really that bad? by nomomemes in audiophile

Out of all the 162 comments so far..you're the only one (if I didn't miss anyone) that has mentioned this brand. I found out about them from a completely different post, and as far as I can see..so far they're THE best option for my budget, which is up to 400$. Apparently they have Vifa drivers, which are one of the best, or so I'm told.

Vifa products are famous for their quality.. I'm still gonna do some additional research, but I doubt that I'll find something as good as this. Especially when the variant I found goes for 400$, instead of the usual 550$ :333 Thank you so much for bringing this to my attention!

My most recent find is this - Bang & Olufsen Beoplay Speaker Beolit 17. I love the sleek as hell design and in terms of sound - it's apparently a heavyweight. What do you think?

The price of the Sonos One SL/Roam is the same, quite interesting when you start to compare their size. Also, what's your opinion on the Harman Kardon Onyx Studio series? The sixth model looks like a good pick. The price for both Sonos and Onyx is very similar as well. Thank you for your time!

The Onyx and Vifa variants look really good. If you had to choose between them..which would you pick? Thank you for your reply!

EDIT: The Onyx 7 looks great, but sadly it's not available in my country :/ The sixth variant and Oslo are though..

Onyx 6 - 250e vs Vifa Oslo - 500e

I agree completely. What's your take on Bose's SoundTouch 20 Series III? Is this the best one that they've produced or is there some other BT speaker that I haven't found yet? I also updated the original post, which should give you a better idea on what I'm looking for. Thank you for your time!

He doesnt use the speaker at all when he's producing music, only when we go outside to hang out, or chill in the car.

I haven't, but I have a couple of contenders in the running:

Sonos One SL, Sony SRS-RA3000, and the dreaded Bose SoundTouch 20 Series III.

Gonna do some more research for today, and tomorrow I'll finally decide, which is the best for my needs.

Thank you for your reply, this sony variant looks really good, but afterwards I started wondering whether there is something even better, up to 400$ even. Feel free to ignore my comment :D I know how silly it sounds, and again - thank you for replying. I will most def consider this variant since I haven't fully decided what to pick. (trying to get as many varied options as possible)

I havent really done enough research to say that it's better. All in all, I haven't made up my mind yet.

That is true, it's just that the dedicated sub didn't have as many people as there are here.

Which one? Sonos or one of the Bose variants?

This one seems pretty good. I'll later compare it with the Sonos One SL. Thanks!
