Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Bought this for 2 areas in the house.After much argument and debate with various neighbors, listening to the different sound systems around, pricing out individual components, etc...
We went with the Bose V35 for several reasons:
1.Great sound.
2.Easy setup/use.
3.Easy to tweak settings.
4.Small and unobtrusive.
In terms of the constant comments pro/con about Bose in respect to its sound quality/price point:
My wife is a professionally trained singer, in the classical mode.We strongly felt that the Bose gives you the best recreation of the concert-hall experience.Having listened to Def Tech, Klipsch, Polk, etc...The Bose does a better job.If music is one of your purposes, especially classical, then we think you will be hard pressed to beat Bose.Music is important to us, and we have a wide range of tastes, but classical/sacred is at or near the top of the list, so this moved Bose up for us.The highs and mids are incredibly crisp and well defined.The bass sounds good as well.For classical music especially, you are going to hear more treble/midrange than chest/house thumping bass.There are other types of music that emphasize bass more, that a mega subwoofer would be better for.For pop music and some movies, we simply turn up the bass and it still sounds wonderful.
Movies/TV sound great as well.We watched Crimson Tide (wide range of sound...)I heard sounds on it I did not realize were in the soundtrack.A vast improvement over our prior system.Star Trek and Band of Brothers sounds fantastic as well.Haven't watched Black Hawk Down yet. but I am looking forward to it.
As far as Price goes.It is pricey.However, my neighbor spent about 3 times what we spent on his sound, and his is still not working well.Maybe his will sound better, but it doesn't yet.Some people like to talk about the size of their speakers.I have never felt the need for that, personally...
We found the Bose to be priced within reason for a custom configured system.It is more expensive than the HTIB, but it sounds much better, in our opinion.
Finally, if your goal is to have a massive system with huge speakers and bass that shakes the neighborhood, this system is not for you.In terms of crisp/clear outstanding sound, easy to use, minimal footprint in your living space, I can't think of a better alternative.
