Ah it's able to do lausless audio ha? Now you've got me. Epic man! I prefer lausless audio. Hell I really prefer good old PCM.

Its not I who says that AirPlay sounds better than Bluetooth, its a fact that AirPlay transfers data in a lossless mode whereas Bluetooth - as a rule - doesn't have the band width available to do so. Bluetooth 4 o course is the exception here and - as yet - I'm not able to say whether the Bose Soundlink III uses Bluetooth 4, my suspicions are that the Soundlink III will at least use Bluetooth 2.0 or some possible variant of the same, would be nice if the SoundLink III used Bluetooth 3.0 at the very least, I'm doing some research on this now and will get back to the list if I find out anything. Yes, my syster Johana has one. It' epic! Real christal clear. But since Dain says Air Play is better then Blue Tooth then I might want to check that out. -----Original Message----- From: Pc-audio [mailto:pc-audio-boun...@pc-audio.org] On Behalf Of Mary Otten Sent: Saturday, May 24, 2014 8:26 PM To: PC Audio Discussion List Subject: Bose Soundlink 3 I wonder if anybody on list owns this speaker from Bose. It costs $300. I saw one briefly last evening at the Verizon store, as I was purchasing my new iPhone and was pretty impressed with the sound, given the size of the box. I really haven't looked all that much in to this sort of speaker. I have an older dock that works with the older style iPhone connectors, and it really sounds pretty good, but my better half has sort of taken it over for use in his class-room. So I'd like to know from those who have experienced this equipment, what did you think, and are there other units you'd recommend as good competition? I like the size and the volume and depth of sound, but am not thrilled with the $300 price tag, naturally. Mary
