Digital camera reviews of Bose 321 GSII DVD Home Theatre SystemDigital camera Review: Overpriced and underperforming Summary: 2 Stars
A typical Bose product -- marketed with lots of hype, expensive, and performs much less well than other systems that cost at least 30-40 percent less. The sound is uneven, and your options for dubbing etc are very limited. Don't waste your money on this one.
Digital camera Review: Perfect for non-audiophiles Summary: 5 Stars
Simple, simple, simple. That's the biggest thing. Right out of the box. Easy to set up and it sounds great. If you're the type that wants the equipment to "do it for me," this is for you. If you like to tinker with it you may want a more complex system. It does seem a little expensive compared to other systems available but we are very happy with the product.
Digital camera Review: Very pleased with the new 3-2-1 Series II system Summary: 5 Stars
Bose claims that this system, with only two speakers and a subwoofer (Acoustimass module in Bose-speak), approaches the sound of a conventional 5 speaker system. This was evident the first night we listened to it. I had not yet taken down the rear speakers of my old surround-sound system, and my step-son commented that the sound of the movie was great coming from the rear speakers. They were no longer hooked-up! It's not a perfect surround-sound experience, but for two speakers and a subwoofer it's amazingly close. And the clarity! From old movies to newly recorded music, the detail if fantastic. The Acoustimass module delivers outstanding performance. The ease of setup was inline with Apple standards -- very simple directions, and the setup CD was a bonus. It's difficult to believe that three speakers and a media center replaced 6 speakers, a DVD player, a receiver, many and lengthy wires, with the end-result being a far more satisfying experience. Oh! The universal remote actually works for all my devices! I suppose I have to list a "con", so I'll say that $1000.00 for a home theater system is pricy, and should indeed provide a lot of bang for the buck. Yet the 3-2-1 Series II delivers on these expectations. I highly recommend this home theater system.
Digital camera Review: What's the best thing about Bose? Summary: 1 Stars
Their money-back policy.
My neighbor bought one of their pseudo-surround systems and exercised such policy within a week, much helped by coming over to my house and listening to a REAL home theater system, which actually cost a couple hundred less.
The second best thing about Bose is that they do have very nice-looking industrial design, most of their products are admittedly quite attractive. But you know the old saw, "Beauty is as beauty does."
Surround sound with 3 speakers? I'm surprised they don't promise you the Tooth Fairy jumping out of the subwoofer too.
