Some internet audio forums are filled with arguments for and against Bose and its products (for example [http://groups.google.com/group/rec.audio.opinion/search?group=rec.audio.opinion&q=bose&qt_g=1&searchnow=Search+this+group], [http://db.audioasylum.com/cgi/search.mpl?searchtext=bose&b=OR&topic=&topics_only=N&author=&date1=&date2=&slowmessage=&sort=score&sortOrder=DESC&forum=general]), though it should be noted that such internet audio forums are filled with arguments for and against ''other'' audio companies and their products (for example [http://groups.google.com/group/rec.audio.opinion/search?group=rec.audio.opinion&q=sony], [http://groups.google.com/group/rec.audio.opinion/search?group=rec.audio.opinion&q=pioneer], [http://db.audioasylum.com/cgi/search.mpl?searchtext=sony&b=OR&topic=&topics_only=N&author=&date1=&date2=&slowmessage=&sort=score&sortOrder=DESC&forum=general], [http://db.audioasylum.com/cgi/search.mpl?searchtext=pioneer&b=OR&topic=&topics_only=N&author=&date1=&date2=&slowmessage=&sort=score&sortOrder=DESC&forum=general]) so Bose is not unique in receiving both critisizm and praise from posters on internet audio forums.
Unlike other major speaker manufacturers, Bose does not publish specifications relating to the measured electrical and acoustic performance of its products.[http://bose.infopop.cc/eve/forums/a/tpc/f/1506041054/m/9991008053] [http://www.gadgetguy.com.au/reviews/15/bose-wave-music-system-mp3-audio-and-video-players]. This reluctance to publish information is due to Bose's rejection of objectivism in audio in favor of "more meaningful measurement and evaluation procedures"[http://www.aes.org/e-lib/browse.cfm?elib=1390]. It is sometimes Bose's non-publication of specifications that lead to poor reviews by objectivist audiophiles (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audiophile#Subjectivists.27_criticisms_of_objectivism_in_audio), rather than actual product performance [http://www.yelp.com/biz/KbzKz1JGvK9ZiH2F8fqfUw] [http://www.badscience.net/?p=209]
