"Paul Penfield Jr., professor emeritus of electrical engineering, was a colleague of Dr. Bose, and he recalls what made Dr. Bose different. “Amar was personally creative,” he said, “but unlike so many other creative people, he was also introspective. He could understand and explain his own thinking processes and offer them as guides to others. I’ve seen him do this for several engineering and management problems. At some deep level, that is what teaching is really all about. Perhaps that helps explain why he was such a beloved teacher.”"

the bose products of recent haven't been the greatest, but this remarkable man deserves great praise and honor. their noise cancelling headphones remain an outstanding product.

I thought he died with Paul Harvey.

When I was a teenager, the Bose 901 speakers were very controversial. Most swore by them, but some thought music should project towards the listener, not bounced off the walls. They were out of my price range, so I couldn't form an opinion. RIP.

the drivers in the 901 were superb. you could build speakers with them.
