Satisfied Customer
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This system has excellent home theater sound but lacks the top quality you expect from Bose when it comes to music. Not to say it is bad because it is not. The mid-range reproduction just isn't quite what I would expect from a Bose system in this price range. After I had installed the system I tried connecting a Netflix FireStick....wouldn't work. Called customer service to find out that "The FireStick is not compatible to the Bose system". Long story short....It is compatible. If you plan to use a FireStick you will need to connect it into the game port. Customer service was the weakest link with the product. Overall .....very satisfied...great sound from a great product.
I would recommend this to a friend - Pros mentioned:Bose, Price, Sound quality

Mini theater @home
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Mini theater @home, that is how i would describe this. When it comes to Bose, we have no doubt about the quality and performance. This is definite value for money. Firstly, easy to install/connect the speakers. Next, configuring takes some effort but that definitely is worth the time spent. The speakers tune/adjust the acoustics to 5 different points in your living room which is one amazing. You get the right effect and clarity wherever you sit, unlike other home theaters where the best audio output is heard only at one or two places. Lots of features on this system that will take more than a weeks play time. Over all amazing product!!!
