Re: Another reason to hate BOSE, they're suing CEDIA

Bose is biting the hand that fees them. Bose has HUGE business in the pro sound realm for resorts, casinos and theme parks, not to mention tens of thousands of clubs, golf resorts, banquet rooms, outdoor portable sound et al.

Most installers of their equipment be it MUZAK (yes muzak uses pro bose products...exclusively) are CEDIA members.

It seems like a win/win game. CEDIA using the "lifestyles" platform...bose having "lifestyle" branded equipment.

Realize that consumer audio is a water drop in n ocean compared to the pro/bose division where installers use their products by the millions. The local MUZAK here has purchased well over 1000 of the "model 16 loudspeaker" within the last 3 quarters and installed them all. That is one product of several "dosen" they use.


Bose should come to a truce on this...a raw lawsuit serves no purpose...as they should go after health spas (which mind you use MUZAK systems and pro/bose products and use the name "lifestyle" as well.

This is utter bullshit if you ask me.
