Years ago the beef with Bose was that they seemed to boost the bass and muddy
up the mid-range a bit. I think that is far less prevalent now. Back then,
when seemingly no one was enhancing bass frequencies this gave Bose space to
distinguish themselves from other sound sources. For many, the increase in
bass gave things a more warm and active feel. The trade off was not true sound
reproduction. Or less true. Because I think the discussion is endless as to
who/what/if anything does 'true sound reproduction'.
I have always believed that Bose is over-priced for what it delivers, then and
now.
Anyway, the above thoughts are my personal thoughts and opinions based upon my
experiences and impressions alone.

No offense taken Bill.
I guess I didn`t notice the difference right away because the only way I had
listened to it was in my car(crappy sound system) and with the headphones
through my computer (which sounded pretty good). Then I wanted my son to hear
Prelude and when it came toward the end I couldn`t believe how Dee`s guitar
seemed to just blend in with everything else. Very disappointing.
BTW, I have a Wave Radio that sounds pretty good.
