1. Stay away from Bose
2. Stay away from Bose
3. If you still want to buy Bose, I got me some real nice moon real estate you might be interested in.
Now that I got that off my chest, let's look at some constructive suggestions.
First thing you need to do when you are looking for speakers is to determine your budget. Since there are countless choices for speakers, narrowing it down to what you are willing to spend is a good starting point.
Secondly, pay big attention to your room. If it is not optimal (or as optimal as you can make it), you can have 1M dollar speakers sounding like Bose. If your room is just right, you will be happy with almost any decent speakers.
Thirdly, DO NOT SPEND A FORTUNE ON SPEAKER WIRES. Performance of a speaker has very little to do with wires. As long as they are thick enough for the distance it has to travel (I use home depot 12GA speaker cable, I think it was like C$1.70 a metre). Same thing with interconnects, they just have to be well shielded.75 ohm 95% copper braid sheilded coax is good enough, foiled on top of the 95% braid (well, braid is outside the foil, just speech issues) is even better.
Lastly, the sound system doesn't matter, what you listen to is more important. The music (or the movie) is the important thing. Don't get too fixated on hardware. I would rather buy 2000 dollar of cd/dvds and have a 500 dollar system rather than buying 2000 dollar system with only 500 dollar of material to enjoy.
