  • hi nice system, where did u connect ur lfe. n cud u possiblely give some good configration, as i wud like to make the most of this system.

  • nice system man bose are fine in my apinion all the bose haters are just immature i think , i have a set my self and im very pleased to , you get what you pay for :)

  • You know?.......everyone is an expert. Bashing this brand or that. I see a lot of people just dropping model numbers and whatnot and they think they are pros. Everyone that has ever said something bad about a particular brand has never backed it by any professional commentary. Guess it comes down to a person's preference, size of the room and the type of sound you're looking for.

  • i love Bose too man. all those ppl say that Bose is shit, they have no money and mind.

  • blows i mean bose is okay for the size but not for the money you have to pay, could have gotten better sat. systems for less price ... no highs no lows must be bose gotta love the marketing

  • hey is this the heaviest bass module if compared to other BOSE BASS MODULES...?????

  • man the drivers got bump

  • sick bass bro

    

  • Comment removed

  • I bought mine from comp USA about 6 years ago still sitting in a box. Waiting to buy a house to open it up.

  • no one cares about your home entertainment system.

  • @PALACIOSSR yeah

  • @artifactingreality

    no one cares about his home entertainment system? then why did u click on the video to watch it u fukin moron?

  • @2006scottw I think you need to chill out dude.

  • @artifactingreality REALLY?! bose not my favorite i like it but not favorite so dnt go around and bag on this mans setup unless u got a vid to bragg about!

  • 599 u can get a 46inch

  • @QTip1001 he bought it back in 2006, at that time prices were higher

  • bose is the best u NEVER question bose :)

  • Dont buy anything Phillips......!!!! They are made like shit. Damn dutch can make dvd players. all of them I have every own have crapped out.

  • @oddball009

    I've had my phillips earbuds for four years and they still work!

  • that "Bass module" does a damn good job though at bass

  • LIFETIME WARRANTY :D

  • i have the harman/kardon too receiver:) it's nice :) but i have the 5.1 HKTS 7 from harman/kardon and the dvd 27 harman/kardon :)

  • Very nice setup you got there for home theatre! Check mine out sometime!

  • The reason Klipsch went down hill is because Prof. Paul Klipsch died.

  • great video i just got the lifestyle v20 i didnt know how this one would work wish i would have got this one

  • Nice setup.

  • whats the difference between a bass module and a subwoofer? is it just because there are multiple woofers in one enclosure?

  • @falkenlaser well the reason the Acoustimas Module also plays the voices and higher frequencys is because it has to make up for what the cube speakers cannot produce therefore you get more of a full frequency range througout the room. Bose's idea was to produce the smallest speaker that will put out the biggest sound. And i'm not to sure about that but my Acoustimas Module plays lower the 30 hz, it isnt SUPER loud but its there. But you gotta remember 5 1/4" drivers, not bad for a small driver

  • A Bose salesperson, plus every audio expert I've talked to, including a dealer that sold Bose for nearly 30 years, told me that the Acoustimass module can't play as low as a subwoofer. Where did you get your idea that it can play below 30 Hz? Also, what do you mean by what you said about 5.25 in. drivers?

    Check out my videos "Bose Lifestyle 48's Worst Nightmare" and "Bose V20's Worst Nightmare". Those systems show small speaker systems that are built right.

  • But you don't understand Bose's concept here. Their idea was to design the smallest speaker that will produce the biggest sound. Yes Paradigm makes excellent audio but their speakers are also bigger. Bose's idea was to make theirs virtually invisable for that "Clean" look. For a driver that size to play that low is pretty outstanding. Bose wasn't looking to be "the best sounding" they were looking to design the smallest speaker that will produce a big sound.

  • Bose Direct/Reflect cubes have two 2.5 in. paper drivers, and the Jewel Cubes have 2 1.5 in. paper drivers, both of which rely on to produce the highs and mids. 2.5 inches is a bad size for a speaker because it's too big to be a tweeter and too small to be a mid-range, hence it can't play that low and high enough. The Jewel Cube's 1.5 in. "twiddler" is too small to produce any low frequencies.

    Bose should have made speakers that can play low enough to where they don't need this bass module.

  • those would be called 201s or 301s

  • The jewel cube speakers are 4 1/2" tall and 2 1/4" wide. They have swiveling drivers to direct the sound throughout the room. Paradigms speakers are simple enclosures with a midrange and tweeter and probably some cotton inside with the crossovers. Bose's speaker design is much more complex than Paradigms. Sure Paradigm is cheaper and sounds better but you still don't understand what im saying. You can hide em in the corners in your house and bearly see them + have sound that you wouldn't expect

  • LOL Oh well thats probably their reciever cuz i have Single Cubes with an Acoustimass 10 Passive Module thats not amplified that sounds great on my own reciever. Yes I agree with you there tho 4,000 for that is way overpriced. Thats why you build your own bose system buying the speakers off of eBay with your own reciever. I think I paid a whopping 70 dollars for the cubes and 120 for the module.

  • Indeed it was. It's only a 2.1 setup for now tho. I will post a couple videos

  • Well the Acoustimas Modules that aren't amplified and use the power from the recieiver in my opinion are better than the amplified ones.

  • @falkenlaser and yet no one cares drop it man

    the fight will go on for years and centuries

  • lol, more people care about microwaves, oranges, and shit more than your vid's :D look it up

  • B.O.S.E. Buy Other Sound Equipment

  • The low end doesnt sound too distorted on the microphone and Ive got the pc patched into my JBL sound system in Dolby stereo mode at the moment since youtube is not digital 5.1. The lows on the JBL 4645 sound nice! Punchy kick! Most of those rubbish car hi-fi 20KW always sound distorted on youtube lol. Yeah goes to show doesnt it, now then!

  • I would save up for new tv, speakers, receiver and a good sub.

  • it's always the way mate, I only realized when I was +25 ... all electronicas are basically the same ... paying more for the same thing would be really , rally silly....glad u are not silly, I'm not silly either .

    looks a nice setup man ..got a bose thing myself, the acoustimass 3 I think it is ..wi the lil cubes ..anyway been ok bit overtop pricewise but ye been ok ...nothing a cheaper system couldnt do though .... I bought em pre 25 bday lol. anyway best regards,

    ~mm

  • Nice sound ! a have a pair of 401 speakers Sound very good The cubes i wanna buy for back speakers.

    Very nice vid!!!

    gr roy

  • do the system really sounds better then  in the cinema?

  • yes, thay do, bose is really good for all, you just dont have some 20hz-10hz LFE effects

    that you can get with a 18" homemade sw

  • can you make another video of the bose acoustimass?

  • Nice vid dude. I have the exact same Bose system running off of a Harmon Kardon AVR 254 receiver and it sounds great the only thing that I have noticed is that sometimes when I'm watching movies the dialogue sounds kind of muffled which makes it hard to understand sometimes. Do you have that problem? Do you know what kind of calibration I should do to make it sound better?

  • Hmmm, I suggest buying a decent pair of speakers if possible. If you had one, you wouldn't be complaining.

  • bose are the best sound in the world the quality is amazing with no distortion i have a £ 8500 bose system in my house and there is nothing to touch this my neighbours 6 doors away can hear this with all my windows closed never mind opened bowers and wilkins are crap

  • Loudness does not equal quality. How about you tell use just how loud your speakers really are since Bose won't do so themselves.

  • bose is not the best, they are good, but not the best. and as for no system being as loud as yours, mine is.

    each speaker is

    300W RMS.

    1" high output fiberglass tweeter

    2- 5 1/14 in midranges.

    15" woofer.

    but the volume comes from.

    103db sensitivity.

    i have done research and no bose is that sensitive. such as the acoustimass, the cubes have 87db sensitivity.

  • should of got v20

  • sweet setup...these people need to remeber that we have t work off budget

    4/5 man good job comment myne man.

  • Th e biggest thing is that your tv is so lame!!

    Whats that 27 inch!? Come on your a grown man do better than that!

  • bose sux,i know from experience...waste of money

  • Okay then Whats better then Bose ?

  • the "sssssssss" will imitate highs very bad because the bass is ok but schwammig and unpäzise ............

  • noone cares

  • BOSE sucks!!

  • i have tried many other Home Theater Systems, and Bose is the best. It surely does NOT suck.

  • I know bose is a really good system, but there are a lot of things that makes BOSE a big shit, i.e. THE PRICE . You can get hundred of speakers better than bose, for the same price or less.

  • What other Home Theater Systems have you heard? if you listened to any good ones you'd know how much Bose really DOES suck!!!

  • i've heard every 1 on the market and bose kicks them of a rocky cliff

  • really,

    so youve heard

    b&w, paradigm,etc.

    im not talkin shit about bose, but they arent the best. i have a bose acoustimass system and its pretty good.

    but its in a storage room because i have infinity studio monitors (the good ones, not the crappy ones from th 80's)

    and they sound loads better.

  • i don't think they sound realistic they exaggerate bass and mids and highs to me bose sounds better. people don't like bose because they aren't hearing slaming bass

  • Fuck yea dude bose is the Best Clear Sound & Deep Bass it's like your there in the Movie Theater

  • my pop has bose 401 speakers on his stereo and they sound wiked

  • What's better then Bose ?

  • Bowers and Wilkins.

  • I agree!!

  • Comment removed

  • Any other brand on the market ;-)

  • i see dead people

  • I absolutely agree with your ideals regarding sound. Everyone has their own sound preference. If you know the circumstances regarding Bose, and prefer their sound, more power to you. I hate seeing other people bash Bose without motive or merit because it's the normal thing to do within the audio community. If it sounds good to you, that's all that matters.

  • I think they bash bose because they knowingly rip people off, its not worth $250 much less $3000. Just because some people enjoy getting anally raped doesnt mean the rapist isnt at fault.

  • thats true i prefer KLH and bose aiwa jvc sony and there more brands that i like but it wont fit in this comment so yeah those are my top 5 brands

  • my faves are bose phillips altec lancing sony and rca

  • Nice I Hate RCAs Receivers tho cause i had one The OPTs went out then shit went to hell grate speakers tho

  • i agree with you i lick bose because they sound realistic and not over done

  • no...

    its his camera..

  • One, You need to Grow Up, How old are you? 12?

    Two, I am a 32 year old man. You need to learn to respect your elders.

    Three, Learn to spell, and There was NO need to cuss..

    Once again, Grow up..

  • bose rule i agree with oliver

    1.i am 16 as well

    2.i bet your a geek who has no life and no friends

    3.bose are amazing, my dad has a bose lifestyle 48 and i never heard a better suround sound

  • every company markets their products, i own a bose, i have heard many other systems and i think bose is the best. if your such a smart shit head then what do you thinks is best?

    soo shut the fuck up prick, stupid geek

  • Did you say JBL ? for my ears is THE BEST !!!! I really like their sound...

  • yeah JBL is great :] ...love em

  • jbl r great for wall smacking bass but bose have a warm rich sound. i do like jbl to an extent but bose

  • Paradigm, B&W, Wharfedale, and PSB, just to name a few, destroy both JBL AND Bose. Even systems of those brands costing half as much as any Bose system sound better. Bose's products are all overpriced and are sold through clever marketing.

    Check out my videos. They have real audio equipment in them (two of them specifically show what you can get for the price of the Bose Lifestyle 48).

  • You'd be surprised at what JBL has to offer. Many of their best consumer products aren't sold in the United States.

  • Comment removed

  • Oh, John, its been a while since we bumbled into each other on youtube. Hows your cat Pete doing? Basically what Universal is saying is. JBL is Just the Best Loudspeaker on the West Coast!

  • I don't see your comment, but I'll reply anyway.

    It's a long story, but JBL consumer feels that most Americans aren't willing to pay for high end systems. Hence, most of their best systems going to Japan. The market there is still strong compared with the market here. Sad, I know.

  • Well if Bose was clever then theyd be used at the Empire Leicester Squares 56KW THX sound system, wouldnt they. Empire uses JBL making Empire the most powerful THX cinema in the whole of Europe, with the biggest THX screen in the UK.

  • destroy JBL ok now i reallly know u dont know any thing about audio

    JBL make some REALLLLY GOOD stuff

    PSB agianst JBL who u kidding

    B&W i dont mind paradigm wont even look at coz we dont get em here

    wharfendale sound horrid no bass on there speakers and sound like soulless trash im sorry to say

  • jbl's pro audio speakers ( pa) are awsome and sound better than andy bose,klipsh OR b&w

  • FALSE. have you ever heard a good song in quality LOUD... you can hear all the detail too. plus, no homespeaker has a good sub end (bass) other than cerwin vega of course. they are more of a club speaker brand anyway

  • @XenDumbAss54

    what makes you think a speaker system made to fill up large and untreated conference rooms and auditoriums (filled with people who could care less about fidelity), would sound better than one made to sit in your living room and designed to provide the most lifelike sound possible?

  • @Xend54 Cerwin Vega are you serious? would you take Cerwin Vega over say validine? a company the only makes subwoofers? Or how about Mirage? Just to name a few.

  • @falkenlaser

    Can you explain why Klipsch is not as good as it used to be? What Klipsch system have you listened to and what was the audio source?

  • @falkenlaser

    Which models are you referring to? The cheap, sub-$2000 Synergy Series sold at Best Buy? or the $31,500 Palladium Series sold in specialty stores? You have to be more specific!

    And BTW, a receiver's amp section isn't enough to power most Klipsch speakers at high volumes regardless of how efficient these speakers really are... and I speak from experience.

    Paradigm is great also, but none of their models are affordable enough to sell at any major chain, hence their absence.

  • Oh I'm referring to the Synergy lines. Those Palladiums do look damn nice. I wonder how they'd compare to Wilson Audio's Sophias and WATT/Puppies (which are my dream speakers).

    Actually, Paradigm's Monitor line is in the same Synergy series price range. They begin at $360/pair (the Atom Monitor bookshelfs, which I own), and are an incredible value. Check out my videos. They show examples of some of Paradigm's lower-ended stuff (you'll LOVE these videos).

  • I respect your opinion but bashing Klipsch because their lower line is sold at BB isn't an accurate measure of performance for ANY of its lines. I own the RF-63's, RC-64, RS-62's and the RT-12d and I am not impressed nor by biggest IMAX theater here in NY, nor a pair of B&W 802 Diamond's and JL Fathom f112 played through a Marantz pre-amp and dual McIntosh amps that I listened to at the store where I purchased my pre-amp. Sounded great but did not feel my system sounded inferior to it at all.

  • @falkenlaser Klipsch has gone downhill recently. Their RF stuff is still quite good!

  • Comment removed

  • good to see you know what you're talking about....*rolls eyes*

  • Easy jono there is a big market out there for every single company, If BOSE worked for you, good !!!

  • bose are amazing, no lows my arse perfect lows amazing base, crystel clear quality

  • "2.1 is what the bose 3 2 1 GS ans GSX use"

  • yeah bose is a very high quality company.

    they'v been down graded because people don't believe that 2.1 sound can produce as much as 5.1 or 6.1 or 7.1 sound. x.x

  • Falkenlaser: "I really don't know the specific version, but I know it's their newest, and that it's way better than the old Atom. They seriously are amazing speakers for the money!"

    ------------------------------ -------------

    P. Atom Monitors watt power: 80 only.

    P. Cinema 110 C watt power: 70 only.

    P.Cinema ADP 190: 80 watts only.

    Im sure if you buy a receiver or an amp thats MORE powerful than these speakers can handle, well u will know woot will happened to them.

  • lol m using my bose to listen to ur bose. still sounds superb. luv bose.

  • Comment removed

  • well i think that Samsung, Sony, and Sharp are like the best LCD HD TV. Well plasma would Pioneer there the best

  • Pretty cool.

    At least your a person that wouldn't spend over 2000 dollars for a huge home theater system.

  • Awesome, my dad has those same exact mediamate's!!! Right now for my pc I am using the Bose acoustimass 3 powered bass module with 2 sony v230 8ohm impedance speakers. It's an amzing combo. Soon I am getting an pioneer 5.1 receiver and paradigm speakers for my gaming pc setup! :D

  • Well I am 13 now and my dad worked and manged compusa in new jersey (I think nutley) and he got the module in '91, so it is older than me lol.

  • Yeah, its basically a powered sub with a mini amp on top. Its very good, I did a sub excursion it was amazing.

  • Insignia is good i work for best buy insignia is made by LG for best buy if you open all LG parts so in reality its an LG TV you can ask a best buy associate and the'll tell you.

  • you talk to much XD but good system

  • B&W speakers are sweet

  • stop buying from bestbuy/walmart shop online save money and open to more products...

  • HAHAHA! Exactly what you said!.

    If you are looking for high prices, low quality, go to BestBuy and walmart. HAHAA

  • AMEN!!!!!!!

  • i have the same subwoofer and i am using bose jewel cubes from ebay

  • i just got the Acoustimass 10 and they sound amazing

  • you should post some video of your Bose 10

  • there r bigga subs from bose but they are in the lifestyle series

  • Aahh, bose MINDLESS, CLUELESS haters! ( for watevah reason)their time is running out.

    Yah need to moved on, Jammer76.

  • dud its an ok system but u could of goten some mirage nanos witch bestbuy sells for like 5bills and a 300 doller klipsch sub for cheaper and way better. The mirage speakers would sertanly blow that shiz away for the price.

  • the only criticism is buy a new cam

  • your three year old will prob think it sounds like shit too!

  • bose is bullshit... Buy a good pair of towers, Klipsch or something

  • haha...if you knew anything about audio, you would know that bose is overpriced bullshit. they still use a paper cone. Oh BTW nice insignia 37" couldnt even go for an LG? Weak!

  • If you watched my latest video you would notice that I now have a Toshiba REGZA. Many speaker companies still use paper cones especially in small drivers. Like I have already said I have a small room and wanted small speakers. The cubes will not match large floor standing speakers, but for the size they deliver a lot of sound. You can't compare small satellite speakers to large floor standing speakers.

  • sod off

  • dont put yourself down bose is gr8 sound (and not cheap) so consider yourself lucky :-)
