bose acoustimass 10


I can get the "Bose Acoustimass 10" system for free with airmiles. Even at no cost I am hesitant because of what I'm reading on the forums. It would be used with a projector for movies in a room 12' x 18' with a 9' ceiling. I have a Denon AVR 1403 receiver. Any advice? thanks

If you can get it for free, then you have nothing to lose.

Bose gets knocked a bit in the forums for the fact that for the amount of money that it costs for their system, you could shop here and get something better and might even save some money. For the normal person that doesnt want a lot of equipment, or tons of wires hanging around, but wants a decent setup, then they look at a Bose.

Also people tend to stick to a company that they are familiar with unaware that there are other choices that are available , and that is what AudioGon offers .
See if you could listen to it at one of those box stores.If your like me,you probably spend a lot of money there anyhow.Even this computer I'm on. Hopefully you could turn it up to the volume that you would listen to it at home to get a better idea.
I have a high end HT system (Sony FP, Krell amplifiers and B&W Nautilus speakers) and a modest plasma TV system with the Acoustimass 10 system. No, the two systems are not comparable. But, for the money the Bose system is just fine to watch movies on.
get cash for your miles usually 250dollars for evey 25,000 miles in 25,000 mile increments and you can find products much cheaper than the airlines list them for miles.
