bose.....anyone got any of their stuff?

i have the ipod dock which just really used since i got it at xmas and have to say very impressed with it. thinking of buying a bose wave system for my mum for xmas.
 
They are form over function, but sound quite good for what they are. Ideal as a present perhaps, but not for an audiophile :D
 
The Bose wave system sounds pretty good, the mother in law has one, snazzy remote control, can't say i'd pay a grand for one though. I've got the quiet comfort 2 noise cancelling headphones, they are worth their weight in gold on a plane if your long-hauling, sound quality is very good, wierd feeling first time you turn them on though.
 
linn decent enough for you?

I should think so :D I only have an old NAD C521 which I play through my Denon AV amp through Missions, but I'd still "take The Pepsi Challenge with that Bose s**t any old day of the week" :o

By the way I wasn't slagging off the Bose. I don't have much experience with them at all, but what I do 'know' echoes my original post :)
 
I've had the Ipod docking station for almost two years now and its fantastic for such a small piece of kit! Mines in white! :)

yeah daz have to say for such a small unit really does fill the bedroom and sounds fantasic and mine is white as well!

My room is a little on the small side so the sound just bounces off the walls! :D
 
Defo form over function. They do sound good but IMO for the money they cost a lot better sound wise could be achieved depends what you want.

Dont think you would be dissapointed either way
 
bose is crap, they may make good car stuff but home stuff is rubbish.

go lift a amp or speakr up made by bose, whats in it air?? and air only???
 
bose is 100% NOT crap! the wave radios are astonishing bits of kit. Have any of you guys actually heard them? I kid you not they sound like a full AV setup all coming out of a tiny box. Awsome.

The Surround setups are good, very good in fact my only issue with them is they they are excessivley expensive. A Mate of mine has one of the lifstyle 5.1 kits got it from the bose outlet for a bargain price of erm £1800!! Its very good but my Harmon Kardon gear (RRP about 1k) is just as good.

On the subject of Linn the same m8 of mine with the bose also has a linn amp and CD player just on two speakers. Knocks socks off the bose !

My dad has a 5.1 kit and a wave radio in the 'sitting room' and I s**t you not its amazing, the amount of sound and bass it produces are amazing.

Agree with you there definietely not crap just overpriced and outclassed with kit in the same price bracket BUT if you have a fair wedge of spare coin and arent an audiophile you wouldnt be dissapointed its fair to say

I just like to get value for money! BOSE doesnt offer that. There in car setups arent that great to be honest. I have the BOSE setup in my S3 and pound per pound the kit I had in my old coupe owned it
