Bose Acoustimass 3 Series IV - 2.1-channel speaker system Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was looking for a decent stereo system that could play mp3 encoded cds, and discovered this Onkyo/Bose bundle. It comes with a good warranty, which suggests it should hold up to plenty of use.
This is an etremely good system for the money. It takes up very little space, but will fill a room with quality sound.
It's hard to believe such a full sound can be obtained from these small components.
Be forewarned, if you like a lot of bass, you definitely need to tweak the Onkyo's bass boost (I'm using the maximum setting). Other than that, the separation sounds fantastic - a lot of(good)detail is revealed, and there's no distortion,
at least at the volume levels I've dared to try.
It would have been nice if the remote had a button to open/close the disc drawer, but otherwise it's very functional.
Treat your ears!

Onkyo CSV720S Executive Shelf System with Universal DVD Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I own 2 of these because the first one was so good. Besides being able to play anything well (CD, SACD, DVD), the amplifier section generates a clean, cool 23W into 4 ohms, enough to drive the included speakers to very high levels, the baby speakers are fantastically good, the microfibre woofer-midrange really works. Give the speakers 100 hours or more to break in, because they are light, you may want to weight them down. I listen only to classical music and I switched to these speakers from Epos 11's, for those who know, I cannot say more about the quality. Just listened to Water Lily Acoustics' SACD of Shostakovich 7 from St Petersburg. All I can say is "wow". But Boulez and Cleveland doing Debussy from 1992 on good old PCM sounds almost as good. Who would have thought Onkyo could produce such a great miniature.

Bose® SoundLink® wireless music system Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)"I was excited for this product to come out and hoped it would work with my iPhone "remote" application which it does nicely. I had the wireless key plugged into my macbook pro and everything works flawlessly as long as your wireless computer network is not on. When it is the Bose Soundlink can't cope and the music cuts in and out and is useless (the troubleshooting guide even acknowledges this!). It seems that you can either listen to your wireless music with the Soundlink OR surf the internet but not both at the same time. If you need to do both simultaneously do not get this product.
Instead get an Airport Express and the Bose Companion 3 speakers to set up a wireless music system through iTunes and AirTunes. You'll also save about $200 this way.
The Bose Soundlink is way too expensive not to have this wireless glitch resolved. Until Bose fixes this, beware of this potentially fabulous product."
