This is neat. Concrete is a nice material because it is very heavy and vibrates very little. This dampens the harmonics of the speaker cabinet itself almost completely, which is very important.
There are companies that make speakers out of marble (both synthetic and natural) they have practically 0 cabinet vibration.

Bose does NOT make good audio products WHATSOEVER. They make very poor, very gimmicky, very slickly marketed crap. There is NOTHING special about ANYTHING they make at all.

Uh, yeah. Hence the sarcasm in my post. I'm fully aware of the marketing behind Bose and their lackluster performance.

MR. BOSE probably got his start by selling his speakers out of the back of a WHITE VAN.
