The one thing I will say about any audio equipment low or high end is get what makes you happy. Mine makes the whole family happy so that's where we are at. It is also like my tractor (although about 3 times as much money) it is equipment that holds its value for a long period of time. So always keep in mind that it is for you not others!!:D

Well,your right,,maybe older and wiser would have been better thing to say than growed up?
There is a place of course for these super sonic sound systems,,and I ain't an audio whatever you call it,,audiophile? So,maybe shouldn't have brought it up in this thread,,its just they are so few of them people out there,that this would have been a short and sweet thread with out me posting,,,plus somebody might read it and try one of those bose radios out,,,if anybody wants something that makes very good sound for your average size living room,and is getting tired of that old dust trap with giant speakers setting in the way,,try the bose out,,,,cause there are about three ways to go with this sound stuff,,super big,very expensive high end stuff,,,or super big pretty expensive low end stuff,,or those cheap shelf system boom box things,,,and than there is my option,the bose,,not cheap,but not real expensive,,small enough to fit in a bread box,setting it up is about as easy as it gets,,they got three four models for you average home,,all the sound 90 percent of us older and wiser people need,,[bose should send me my check now],,,just kidding,,,doing this for to help older and wiser people out. thingy

Now that's a mostly reasonable post. I think for a lot of people the Bose Product is a satisfactory alternative to component gear. The rub comes when you imply that are you are so much wiser (smarter), and more grown up than those of us that appreciate a little more sophisticated audio. I think its great to advocate for a product that satisfies you and one that you enjoy, the problem comes when you imply that others are fools because they don't endorse your opinion. They all make noise, and they all have trade-offs between money, size, and sound quality. We just prioritize those three things differently.

Well,add reasonable to my list of other traits,strong and handsome to,,but you'll just have to take my word for that,,,what I guess I meant by that,is,,I was kinda into that for several years,[although evidently not as much as you guys],,had a couple about three bigger pretty good systems,,liked to hear all that stuff,had one of first cd players made I reckon,never knew much about them really just knowed more was better,my taste just changed,,stereo mainly was collecting dust,and taking up room,,mainly used it for tv sound,,,so about a year or so ago,those bose adds got the better of me,,verified that they would take it back several times if I didn't like it,cause I was pretty sure I wasn't,I mean anything thats got a clock alarm on it,,you know,,,but took it out of box and put a cd in turned it up about 3/4 way and in 10 seconds I said,sold,,,but no doubt,a top of the line stereo and speaker system,kinda does make it look like a clock radio,,[although the most amazing clock radio you ever heard],,thingy

When we built our house two years ago I went a little over board:rolleyes: every room in the house has in-ceiling Jamo speakers that are zoned through two "sistered" Nuvo systems. The two garages are on the same system but have separate volume control. The front porch as well as the rear porch and patio are also zoned separately, so pretty much I can walk any where in the house or outside without any "hot spots".

Upstairs I have an Integra 5.1 system paired with a 52" JVC Dila TV

Downstairs I have a THX certified 7.1 system as follows:
Receiver - Integra DTR-6.5
Front and mid Channel speakers - Jamo D6LCR (Rears and center-rears Jamo also)
Sub woofer - Mirage Omni S-12 (300 watts)
Screen - 100" by Screen Innovations
Projector - Screen Play InFocus

Turbo that's pretty cool!!

I have just a bit smaller screen (90" Da-lite Permwall) and a Sanyo PLV-Z3 projector.

It is nice to have your own theater!!:D
