bose acoustimass 10

I have an Acustamas 10 in a small sun room that is a challenge for surround sound in many ways (long and narrow, 4 sets of triple windows and outside walls). They do create surround effects and make movies more entertaining. The bass module is well intergrated into the system. Beware of the demonstrations at the Bose store. What you are listening to is many thousands of dollars worth of acustic engineering.
The speakers are tiny, cheap drivers that cannot possibly produce HiFi sound. If size of speakers is not a great issue, you might do better with PSB Alpha B-1/s and their sub for about the same or less money, and use your miles for something else. IMHO

Interesting revelation Duane. It is lucky that I managed to sell the AM-10 at more than 50% loss after 3 years of use and still get more than $138 for it, I think. That was about 7-8 years ago. Agreed with previous posters that you can get more for the money elsewhere. I would go with Ras422's suggestion.

i concur with the get 'em and sell 'em consensus. they really do sound like shit, but anything with the bose impriminatur commands a huge premium on ebay and craigslist--reap your shekels and buy yourself something nice.

Blose Acoustimess? For free; the price is right! As stated; get 'em, sell 'em, and get something that sounds real.
