Jawbone Jambox retail packaging

Back in my youth, boomboxes were a popular way to enjoy loud music on the go. The Jawbone Jambox comes in a box stating "That was then" on the outside.

i really do not get the flood of comments regarding super sound from jawbone jambox.. i do not find it to sound all that impressive( are my ears broken???) i tested one at a local best buy store. it was connected to a demo feed they were playing on it so i pulled the feed plug and paired it to my phone thinking it was just a bad sounding recording. well unless there was something actually wrong with that particular jambox... i was lees motivated than ever to 200.00 for something that was way hyped up but sounded like poop!!!! i asked the bestbuy drone working that dept. and he was all smilely and said yeah man this thing pops!!!!! well it sounds like it flops!!! i tried my samsung galaxy and blackberry curve...all the same BAD SOUND!!! Please someone correct me and prove to me i should go and invest 200.00 in this little box of mystery
Man, that is a lot of packaging (trees) and a lot of cables.
