Re: Bose link2, or jawbone big jam box?
There is also suppose to be a speaker called the Amazing speaker. You lay it on a table, stick it on a window, put it just about anywhere and what ever surface it's using becomes a speaker. Just 1 goes for around 75 bucks so for stereo you need 2. I just don't want to spend that much on a maybe kind of thing. They say you can carry a couple in your pocket and they have a Y connector as well and turn your iPhone into a great stereo system. How many times in my 65 years of life have I seen some gee-wiz thing that turned out to be all blow and no show. Still, new times, new ideas or so said Captain Kirk to Doctor McCoy. grin - Original Message - From: Robert Doc Wright To: viphone@googlegroups.com Sent: Wednesday, April 03, 2013 4:37 PM Subject: Re: Bose link2, or jawbone big jam box? the bose link also has speakers in the back that when placed in front of a wall it makes the whole wall sound like a speaker.

I can't speak to the Bose link 2 but I can speak to the Bose sound dock 10. Yes it has clean clear bass but even more importantly, it has a much greater dynamic range. Dynamic range is what makes sound more like reality. Generally, it takes a great deal of power to make a wide dynamic range in an amp. It appears the sound dock 10 has found a way to do it using only 2 8 inch speakers. I guess maybe that's why it's like 7 hundred dollars USD. And it can do it with a 128 mp3 file. This model isn't sold at Target and other stores. You have to go to a Bose store to hear it and it's heavy. Mine I'd say weighs around 30 pounds. My wife refuses to take me to the Bose store any more. She's afraid. Very afraid.

Okay, I have owned the big jam box, wasn't blown away by like the rest of the general public. Right now it is only $239.99 on amazon. The Bose link2 is still sitting at $299.99 and gets a smidge of a higher review. Couple things to take in to context here. The Bose link2 got 4.5 out of 5 stars. The Big jam box got 4.4 out of 5 stars. The Bose has only been on the market since September, and the big jam box has been out since last May, almost a year. The big jam box has over 1200 reviews, and the Bose link2 only has 273. So personal preference is the key here. Jam box has speaker phone, Bose link2 does not. Bose link shaped like a small book, big jam box shaped like a long rectangular box. Jam box sound can be updated via usb cord, and sound adjusted with a few button presses. Bose link has an app for the iMac, but saw nothing about firmware updates. I will have the Bose link2 in my hands tomorrow, so will be able to see if 1 out does the other. 1 thing a lot of reviewers said about the jam box, that the speaker phone took some quality away from the sounds of their music. Don't know, but I am not big on speaker phones anyway since I live in a household of 7, and want to keep my few conversations private anyway. More of a tester than a talker. Anyway, is there anyone who has owned both that can add to this? If not, I will tomorrow. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the VIPhone Google Group.

Re: Bose link2, or jawbone big jam box?
The Boselink will provide more bass response than the jambox so if that is your preference you'd be happier with the Bose. The jambox however talks and gives information that isn't provided by the Soundlink. That isn't to say that should be a show stopper but sommething to consider. If I had to choose one over the other I would choose the Sounndlink because it has a soun d which I like better.
