There is a certain poetry when Apple and Bose team up in
offering the new SoundDock digital music system. It's basically yet
another dock with a pair of speakers attached to it, something we're
not in the least opposed to, but it does set one to wonder what
happens when blowhards like Bose work with blowhards like Apple to
"elevate your iPod listening to a whole new level."
Do both Reality Distortion Fields cancel each other out? Is it
possible this $300 set of speakers is actually a good product? I'm not
sure I'm man enough to find out.

12/30/2004 08:55 AMAt $300, the SoundDock is more expensive than competing systems.
However, it's currently the best sounding of the all-in-one speaker
systems we've tested, and its uncluttered elegance and ease of use
make it an appealing offering for those willing to plunk down the
change. By Dan Frakes, Macworld

Bose Suspension System
Bose Suspension System
12/24/2004 12:57 PMThat's right. Bose.
The latest trick coming from the 74 year old Dr. Amar Bose is an
active suspension system; the Bose Suspension System. It's been in
development since 1980, and so far they've only got it on a 1994 Lexus
test mule, but rumor has it that Cadillac may offer the Bose system as
an option on an upcoming car.
The proprietary Bose suspension system couples linear
electromagnetic motors and power amplifiers with a set of unique
control algorithms. For the first time, it is possible to have, in the
same automobile, a much smoother ride than in any luxury sedan and
less roll and pitch than in any sports car. The Bose research vehicle
provides superior comfort by gliding smoothly over bumpy roads and
superior control by keeping the car body level during aggressive
maneuvers.
When you think about it, it's not that much of a stretch for an
outfit like Bose to go from speakers to automobile suspensions. A
speaker is essentially a linear motor that uses electromagnetism to
move a speaker coil to produce sound waves; the suspension Dr. Bose
has assembled uses four linear motors that basically use the same
principle to keep the car on an even keel, no matter how the driver
and road thrash the thing.
We've talked about the inherent problems of sophisticated
electronic systems in vehicles
before, and I don't think I'd want something like this in my
car... At least not until the technology has matured for several
years. Stories of Land Rover suspension systems failing at high speeds
and causing deadly accidents is enough to make me want to stick with
plain old shocks and struts.
The January print issue of Motor Trend has a brief article
on it, but a more extensive writeup online, complete with a video of the test mule in action. In the
grand finale, the Lexus actually jumps over a 2x6 on edge at 35mph!

Bose Personalized Amplification System
Bose Personalized Amplification System
02/11/2004 01:51 PMEver gone to a concert where it's so loud you think you're ears
will start bleeding, and in spite of the volume level you can't
understand the lyrics? Dr. Amar Bose and his namesake, Bose Corportation, are trying to change
all that, and change the entire amplified performance paradigm with
their new Personalized Amplification System
(PAS.)
Bose's approach to solving this problem is pretty radical,
and at the same time surprisingly simple. It involves nothing less
than, as they put it, “changing the fundamental properties of
loudspeakers,” and yet the idea, once it's explained, seems obvious.
The company's new product is called the Cylindrical Radiator
Loudspeaker. Two dozen or so (we weren't allowed to peek inside the
units) small drivers are arranged vertically in a flagpole-like
structure about 3.5 inches in diameter and seven feet high, which is
set into a floor stand. The arrangement of the drivers is designed to
eliminate all vertical dispersion: The sound is projected forward and
in a 180° arc horizontally, but there's nothing projecting above the
top of the column and nothing bouncing off the floor.
The most obvious effect is that, in theory at least, the sound is
transferred to the room much more efficiently than with a standard
spherical-front speaker. In fact, we were invited to walk directly
toward the speaker from across a large room while a guitarist played,
and observed that the difference in sound level as we approached was
remarkably small, even when we put our ears right up to the speaker.
Therefore, musicians can play at lower levels and still fill a space.
Vocals sent through the system can be loud enough to project, but the
potential for feedback is greatly reduced.
(quoted from a MixOnline
article)
The Cylindrical Radiator speaker is placed behind the
performer on the stage, providing sound for both the performer and the
audience. This is a total departure from the traditional amplified
sound system, which requires separate amplifiers & speakers for the
audience and the performers, a mixing console, miles of cabling, and a
sound technician to make it all work, and even then it often works
poorly. The PAS returns simplicity to the idea of amplified music
performances, and makes for a much more natural sound coming from the
stage, with the amplified sound from each performer coming from where
that performer is on the stage. According to many posters on Bose's online forum, the system is
also ideal for DJ's and playback of recorded music.
This is an answer to many prayers from frustrated performers and
sound techs alike, tired of overly complicated systems for small to
medium-sized rooms, not to mention concert-goers who feel the need to
bring ear plugs along.
Look for the PAS to show up on stage at a nightclub or church near
you.

01/16/2004 10:58 AMIt's finally here! Time to see which of these "top-quality" sound
products measure up, and which don't. You've heard all the hype,
you've seen all the prices. Can Apple really compete in the headphone
industry? Is Sony all that it's hyped up to be? Is $149 really worth
a set of headphones? Head over to the reviews to find out.
