My wife wants to buy the apple speakers for her ipod to bring to work and play at home, so i was reading some reviews about BOSE and JBL and it seems people are just buying the namebrand and not actually testing them for what there worth.....

Anyone own or have any thoughts on them?
Thanks in advance.

jbl ones suck. the bose ones kick arse (like everything from bose). the bose is expensive though so be careful with it. ps i can get you a good deal on the bose system if youre interested in one. pm me for details.

Ive never heard the bose speakers but imo they are very similar to audiobahn in quality. Its usually overpriced and its only for their name that it is. If you can compare the two you could be a better judge for quality (jbl or bose).

I'm not a fan of Bose; their home speakers are overpriced, well-marketed garbage.

However in the case of those iPod speakers, I've heard both, and the Bose sound far superior. They're $300 though IIRC, which is utterly insane. For $150 she could get two good sets of computer speakers for home & work, and they'd sound better too!

I haven't heard them just yet, but if you are considering the Bose system, you might as well consider the Klipsch iFi Speaker System for iPods. Some online retailers have them for as ~$310. Retail and at amazon is $399.
