I haven't noticed any Bose "lovers" in here. I think all of us who have "defended" Bose have acknowledged that it is not the system for everyone and that it is far from hi-fi. The point that we are making is that nothing you put in a car is going to sound "right" and you quickly reach the point of diminishing returns so why spend a lot of money trying to reach an unattainable goal?
Yes, there are people that are impressed by the name on the box but I haven't seen them in this thread. I don't care what it says on the label if it sounds good to me.
IMNSHO, it is the placebo effect that causes you to think that one can get hi-fi in a small car. It ain't gonna happen. Nothing in a car is going to be hi-fi. Throw all the fancy equipment at the problem that you want to but you've still got a crappy listening environment.
"If I could do a serious double blind study with a base system in place of the bose system..." You can't, so it doesn't matter.
But if you think you can hear the difference, then go for it. It's your ears that matter, not mine.
