kevin gilmore Posted July 12, 2013 Report Posted July 12, 2013 Love him or hate him or his products, certainly a major force in the industry http://web.mit.edu/newsoffice/2013/obit-amar-bose-0712.html Quote
jgazal Posted July 13, 2013 Report Posted July 13, 2013 In 2011, to fulfill his lifelong dream to support MIT education, Dr. Bose gave to MIT the majority of the stock of Bose Corporation in the form of nonvoting shares. Under the terms of the gift, dividends from those shares will be used by MIT to sustain and advance MIT’s education and research mission. MIT cannot sell its Bose shares, and does not participate in the management or governance of the company. RIP Amar Bose. Kevin Gilmore, thank you for that link. Quote
skullguise Posted July 14, 2013 Report Posted July 14, 2013 RIP Dr. Bose. I've known several folks who worked at Bose, and as a corporation liked it a lot. Too bad they took his work and made it into primarily a marketing and legal-driven audio company.... Quote
iganiats Posted July 30, 2013 Report Posted July 30, 2013 RIP. I never had any of his products but when i was a teen, a friend of mine owned the 901 speakers. Quote
