If you want the boom get a powered subwoofer it works very well with them. The bose 901 are very hard to set up ( You have to have the right backround) But if you do they sound like a live outdoor concert. For the most part Bose lives off the fame of the 901 and 301 Anyone who will look at a small size speakers like the bose 301 will be very happy with the sound it gives.

Would it be better if the assistant was Indian? Any ways My evaluation of Bose for home theater system leads me to recommend it only if size is at premium ow not. I suspect why Bose wont publish frequency response is because of the multiple audio paths that they create to reflect sounds. Regarding why the Brand is viewed as better is a DUH point. Why is a Gucci bag any better than any other bag ? Brands enable people to flaunt wealth. Its probably because its more expensive some one may want it for that factor.

Despite being married and having two young children, Dr. Bose began a 20 year relationship with his German "assistant", before finally doing the right thing and divorcing his wife and getting married to the German broad. This kind of immorality clearly has carried forward into the operations of this company.

I tried different systems and I do vouch for the superlative audio quality of Bose Systems. Jealousy is possibly the most sincerest flattery.

[/i] Actually, what you don't realize is that with those demos at the Bose store, you are listening to their $1300 surround sound system (worth about $150) connected to about $100,000 worth of hidden equipment (amp, DAC, CDP, interconnects, etc.). Anything will at least sound pretty decent with that kind of power behind it, even shitty Bose speakers. "Space saving" and "great sounding" never go together. Bose's tiny speakers can never reach the highs or lows that a standard speaker can reach -- all you get is so-so midrange. Their systems are not the best on the market -- more like the absolute worst. Anyone who knows anything about audio knows that Bose is the laughingstock of the audio industry. Also, a surround sound system is inferior to a stereo system (music is recorded in stereo; it should be played back in stereo -- good stereo systems should be able to replicate the soundstage, whereas cheap surround sound systems basically cheat to attain soundstage).
