    Yamaha Arrives ...

    Well I just got it and ... BLAH !

    For 15 watts/ channel (and 60 Hz for the low), I expected more oomph. But it was just sounding quite average ... maybe just a little better than my generic clock/ radio. The highs are really needing some boost too. I was afraid to max out the volume as distortion became more audible. But for only $169, you can't really complain for what you get.

    Come join me as we'll hear it from my little nightstand. I think I'm just gonna send it back and just get the ULTIMATE ... none else but the BOSE Sounddock 10.

    Nah ... if I'm going for B&W, I'm going for the big Zeppelin but it's just too damn ugly!

    Just look at it compared to the classy Bose Sounddock 10. Not a hint of class at all - being shaped like a football. C'mon guys! It has to be aesthetically appealing too!

    I've got 30 days to find out if it's crass, then, and only then will I consider the Zeppelin.

    I was simply stating my opinion on style not sound. Buy what makes you happy.

    After all I just bought a Monster Power product.

    I think the Zeppelin is far sexier... The Bose looks crappy and boring to me... so it's really just a matter of preference

    What was the point of posting that?

    I am curious to hear your review of it, though, regardless.

    Are you a little keen on Adam Lambert? Looks like he might really turn into something, as have a few previous AI alumni.
