BOSE(R) Acoustimass 15 Series II Home Entertainment Speaker System - Black Reviews
I hooked up this to my Yamaha RXV 1500 THX Receiver. I did research from Infinity Beta series, Atlantic Technology, KEF, M&K .many others. If you want similar performance and nice look (Virtually invisible) yes, Bose is the way to go. They sound great but they are bulky. This is definitely NOT Radio-shack quality. I own this from last one year. It shakes.
AND IF YOU READ CNET OR ONE OF THE OTHER ONLINE REVIEWERS YOU WILL NOTICE HOW ALL THE OTHER WANNA BE SPEAKER MANUFACTURERS ONLY COMPARE THEMSELVES TO BOSE, AND NO ONE ELSE I WONDER WHY. BOSE ALTHOUGH THEY MAKE VERY EXPENSIVE SYSTEMS REALLY OFFER A PRODUCT THAT WILL LAST YOU THROUGH THE YEARS. I HAVE HAD MY BOSE AM 10"s THE SYSTEM PRIOR TO THIS ONE ALTHOUGH THEY LOOK IDENTICAL, SINCE 1996 AND I MUST SAY THE SOUND ON MY SURROUND SOUND THEATER SYSTEM STILL MAKES ME JUMP WHEN I PLAY A DVD WITH EITHER D T S OR DOLBY 5.1.
(for what it is known) You buy it, try it if don't like it return it.I have been trying it and so far it's delivered upto my high expectations.Not only does it sound sweet and I feel like sitting in a live concert, or movie theater it cost me less than here also;) In B Js the package (AM15 series 1 silver+samsung HT DS610B receiver+5cd/dvd changer) for 950.I earlier thought samsung receiver/dvd player must be trashy but it's working okay and I could wait till HDMI-adaptive Onkyo (TX SR604 in particular) comes down to 200s (its right now 400).In one word I'd describe my HT as incredible.bose delivers. Like what the other guy said if your room is around 20x15 and you want to keep speakers 'virtually invisible' this is for you.
Trust me their is a difference between, optical and analog quality and it obvious whenever I listen or play something on TV. I got mine there and it was cheaper and tax free.
Even still to this day when I watch a movie or play a video game I swear I'm hearing something outside or in the house, but its just the sound from the speakers. I agree with most reviewer that the price is too high, but I think the quality is great.
Also if you know someone in the military, they sell Bose at the PX/BX(Post/Base Exchange). I've had these for 3 years and they worked great, even after 3 different moves across the country.
I have almost everything hooked up by fiber optics to my receiver for the best possible quality. Lets face it, you want to spend your hard earned money on something that will sound great and last for a long time.
I actually have a 6.1 receiver that hooks these speakers up and the additional Bose center speaker.
the $300 system put these things to shame. I bought a set of these for my sister-in-law because she was convinced Bose was the best. i suggest you do your research before paying for a fancy ad campaign. For comparison, I had installed a $300 multimedia computer speaker system for her son a few months prior. if you do a little research, you learn that bose is basically radio shack quality speakers with nike level marketing.
