The most respected name in sound: Bose speakers

[Concept]

Does anybody actually own some of these speakers? I can not afford them.

Just incase you dont know just for 5 1x1 inch speakers by this company it will run you about $2000.

I saw one of those 'mertials for the "Bose Acustic Wave Sound System" or whatever it was, it was in payments of $90, and it didnt say for how many months... my guess is it was around $500

The way they talked about it tho... i'ed like to have one

 

[Concept]

No MistaX. The cheapest stereo Bose has runs at over $1000. Just to let ya know.

 

[MistaX]

Would you wanna sell one on TV?

BTW: http://bose.com/home_audio/wave_systems/awms/ thats what im talkin about

I have a set of Bose and their not my favorite. Lot's of Bass, but weak on clarity (Still pretty good, but not for the price)
My Dollar goes to Klipsch these days. I can't begin to say enough good things about them.

Yes Josh but these tiny little speakers will blast out most peoples car audio systems. You can turn the volume up all the way with complete clarity. Remember Josh because theyare small does not mean they are not good. They are not cheap like Sony and crap. The research and spend lots of money on their products.

good one

i stick with kenwood. good sound but a bit on the dear side...worth it though.

 

[mayorbill11_]

the bose gold stereo/speakers in my aunts 89 fleetwood isn't the greatest out there, though it is 13 years old.

 

[Klostrophobic]

With Bose you just pay for the label. I wouldn't class them with Klipsch.

My friend has it.... Very Very nice sounding. Very nice.... But he wants to get rid of it and get something else.. Something better hes saying.

 

[Dudebusta]

yeah kenwood

 

[Viper_Maniac]

I definitely need to get new speakers for my stereo. I only have one speaker hooked up to it cuz its the only one that sounds half way decent on the stereo. Its a Fisher.

 

[TVRKing]

I quite like my Videologics. 1000PMPO.

My dad has 5 Bose speakers....the fronts are the ones with the rear facing speakers, he got these at a pawn shop in FLA for $275, then he got the rear speakers at Best Buy(I don't remember the price), and a center at Best Buy too....the are great!

I have a Boston Acustics 3-piece speaker set, and when I want total surround sound, I turn on my Altec Lansing 3-peice speaker set....the Boston set is on a shelf at the front of my bunk bed, with the sub on a shelf underneat my bed(so it shakes the bed), and the Altec set is costom mounted on Erector set pieces, bolted on the end of my bunk bed useing the existing screws, sub below on the built in desk of the bed, and the wire runs under the matress on the wood matress supports, the past my Boston sub and along the window sill, behind my tv, and to the reciever.

And that was fully mounted, wired, and everything, by me.

I have the Acoustimass 15 system, for which I paid £1,000. I have to say that they're absolutely fantastic. My room is 11'x11', and the small speakers, together with the (hidden) sub give awesome quality sound. Remember, that in a room that size, you can't put full-size speakers all over the place without them filling the room, and you'll never overcome being able to hear the location of the speakers. With the AM15s, you can slightly rotate the top and bottom speakers, so that you can literally fill the room with sound.

So what we've ended up with is a room with a kick-ass home cinema (32" WEGA, Sony DVD, Sony Amp, Sony Video, 70 cable channels), but it all looks quite discrete. No wires trailing, no huge speakers on unsightly stands (have you seen the sculpture that is a Bose Cube Speaker Stand!).

Basically, I can totally, without reservation, recommend these speakers to anyone.

And the money? Well, you might think that £1,000 is a lot to spend on speakers, but is it really? You get 5 speakers plus a powered sub, so they're £167 each, or £330 for the front pair, £200 for the rear pair, £170 for the centre and £300 for the sub. In my book, that's only a mid-range cinema speaker setup.

 

[MazKid]

BTW, we have a 53" Sony Videoscope XBR tv, Denon DVD player, Denon CD player, Dish network with about 160 channels, and all...it's the best setup I've seen...

 

[Dudebusta]

your rich eh?

 

[MistaX]

If he were rich wouldnt he mostlikely have the name FerrariKid or LamboKid...maybe even KidLaren?

 

[Zero]

I got Bose in my car.........

 

[MazKid]

No, we aren't rich at all...just lucky...the bose fronts we got from a pawn shop, and the backs and center were on sale...the TV we got from my grandpa's Sony only store(a guy had it, only turned it on a couple times, and they sold it to us for $800, new it woulda been about $4K...), the Denon stuff my dad got on sale...

And even if I was rich, I'd still be MazKid, I'd just be driving an RX-7 R1 instead of a 323...

 

[Zero]

323's blow!!!!

 

[MazKid]

Wrecking your sister's Volvo blows

 

[Zero]

ITS NOT A VOLVO!

Acura Legend.

Swedish cars suck.

 

[MazKid]

I thought you had the Legend....and you got hit by cutting through a parking lot in your sis's car...and the picture was of a Volvo....

 

[Josh]

It looks to me like that car in the picture is a black Acura Legend.

 

[Zero]

No MazKid every pic was of my car, the Legend(also my sisters car but I have to pay insurance on it when i get back from my grandparents so then it becomes my car)

We have never owned a Swedish car and we never will, its been Acura's since my dad bought the 86legend.

 

[Zero]

Thank you Josh :thumbsup:

And its kinda hard to tell a car just by looking at a huge dent in the door and part of the tire but no Volvo's ever in my family.
