    Hey everybody! I know it's a huge question and I've already lost subscribers over it, but yeah my teeth are gone due to a bone deficiency. I was breaking teeth very easily and for years the broken teeth remained un-pulled constantly hurting and eventually cased me to be poisoned, after the point where I only had my two front teeth left that's when I had them all pulled and took a break from RUclips
    I will most likely get false teeth but for now my gums are still healing and I'm learning how to talk and eat all over again, multiple videos were recorded in my time off however hearing my own voice on recordings would really upset me, and still does. I get excited and sound like Sylvester the cat ;)

    I’ve seen a grand total of 3 different versions of these drivers. The original cubes from this generation had smooth fabric surrounds and paper dust caps. After that, they switched to fabric dust caps. After that, they went back to these paper dust caps and the ripple surrounds. I think there may have also been a 4th version with ripple surrounds with fabric dust caps.
    Really old ones had metal frames, rubber (I think) surrounds and plastic dust caps.

    • @PlatinumEagleStudios

    I own an acoustimass 10 series V system which is connected to a Marantz SR8015. With that model they changed the cheap plastic satelites to full metal built satelite speakers, which is a serius improvement of builtquality. But for the rest I guess they remained the same. Now this setup I only use for movies and videogames and I think they sound really good. Probably because I use them with the bass module they came with, which does that EQ thing they use. Because even in this setup, where you need an external amp, they let the output of the amp go in to the bass module first, before it goes to those satelite speakers. So the module definitly messes with the signal.
    But for music, I prefer my set up in my study, which exists of two B&W DM580 speakers with a vintage Philips 686 stereo receiver. Never fails to amaze me.

    Bose's magic has mostly been in their "magic" EQ box/controller. I believe it has a dynamic eq based on the volume to make low volume bass stronger in smaller speakers but allow for louder volumes by decreasing the bass as volume/signal climbs. They sometimes do a little extra magic with chambers or speakers with a larger excursion range, but generally the speakers individually are nothing exciting or of a higher build quality. By staying with small speakers, they can, however, sort of produce a cleaner sound as they don't have the mass of a large woofer to keep in control, but they usually go for quantity of small speakers in larger PA boxes to make up for the lack of driver size. Does it make a difference? Meh.... maybe to the trained ear, but you pay a lot usually for the name itself, which sometimes cancels out the difference.

    Yeah I’m not the biggest fan of the cubes. I personally like their pro audio (their passive PA speakers to be exact) and their older home audio. Like the 101s, the acustimass 321 series ii, VS100, and their environmental 151s. Granted the 101s, VS100s, and the 151s all use the same cabinet but with different drivers and covers.
    I have 2 VS100s I got off eBay and put one in my new home theater system. I really like the way they sound! Very clear full and crisp sound. Im only using one and its the center channel.
    But yeah I agree. The cubes are a neat idea but not their best speakers.

      Funnily enough, they don’t even sound horrible with the supplied subwoofers, because they have DSP in the powered ones. It makes them sound clearer in the treble, and the subwoofer also extends higher than usual. They are basically using software to make their cheap hardware sound better. In the passive ones, they just have a super intricate crossover. Kind of an interesting idea, but I prefer when they are actually built well.
