The only fault I find with the Bose is the need to keep an extra 9 volt
battery handy. If you leave them on, the battery will run down.

The new Bose X uses two AAs and has an auto-shutoff feature. They went to that a
few years ago. If you have one of the earlier Bose X models that uses the 9v
battery, you can get a replacement battery box/control unit for an exorbitant fee.
