More Bass Please!
#12

Have you seen the YouTube video of the Windsor Imperial Maggie? Quite amazing sound and the guy talks about the $2000. tweeter that's in it. He has quite a collection of big stuff. Really hard to tell what the bass is like via YouTube, however. The receiver on mine is quite sensitive on the shortwave band and pulls in a number of stations with just the single wire antenna in the cabinet. Am really anxious to get am FM tuner hooked up to my Symphony model to see how that sounds. Nothing wrong with good old mono. In fact, where I live a Bose Wave Radio is no good because it does not have a stereo/mono switch so with marginal reception stereo I get a lot of noise and static. Whereas, a cheap Sony boombox turned to mono works fine. I've called Bose on this and they don't seem to care.
