Hello,
I've been "borrowing" the Bose Acoustimas 6 for some time while sharing an
apartment but I'm moving to my own place next week so I'm thinking about
getting a similar setup. While I don't really have any major complaints
about the BA6, I find it rather pricey.

Does anyone know of other products in that category but has a lower price
tag? Will be using this for both my TV and stereo. I listen to Jazz &
Techno(yes, weird mix) quite a lot with other stuff thrown in occassionally
(absolutely no country!). A little more solid, low bass would be nice.

Thank you very much.

Almost everybody making speakers makes some kid of small sub/sat speaker
system, NHT, Boston Acoustics, many others. Bose is pricey because they
spend a fortune on advertising, it's really not anything to do with the
quality of their products which are almost universally looked upon as second
rate.

I have a friend who had customized the following material :

http://radiotelevision.free.fr/p105.html

He used to listen Ornette Coleman on the right channel and Richard
Wagner on the left one and everything was ok.
But he has tried to improve the system introducing an automatic swap
system between the right and left channels. The diabolic lethal
innovation was that swap frequency was automatically adapted to the
rhythm of the music !
My friend died from a "neuronal short circuit". :-(


If he was really a so bad lover, forget him and his Acoustimas 6 system,
don't do twice the same error... ;o)

It is very easy to see how a second rate brain arrives at your
conclusion. So by your standards, any successful company that does the
best job of advertising and marketing their products is "universally
looked upon as second rate."?

Let's see: Does that mean Tide is a second-rate laundry detergent?

Is milk as advertised by the American Dairy Council a "second rate" product?

Is Charmin a second-rate toilet tissue?

Is Red Lobster a second-rate chain of seafood restaurants? [Name a
better national sea food restaurant chain - You cannot]

You're just another drug store audiophool cowboy who detests Bose
because they are the largest and most successful marketer of speakers
and audio equipment in the world. They spend more on advertising
because they MAKE MORE MONEY than any other company.

If you knew anything about marketing and advertising, which you do not,
you would know their advertising to sales ratio is actually lower than
most of their competitors, like Polk Audio, The Harman Group, and
Pioneer, just to drop a few names. Advertising to sales ratio is simply
a measure of what percentage of their overall sales revenue is
reinvested in advertising. Bose spends a lot because they sell a lot!

Bose sells a lot because they make quality, good sounding products that
people buy, precisely because they are quality, good sounding products.

I'm fully agree with you my little "Crotin de Chavignol".
The Munster-Emmental mathematical law clearly demonstrate the arithmetic
relation between quality and sales volume.
This is why my friend S888Wheel listen Kate Bush on a $10.000 audio

I have the Canton Fornissimo(sp) setup in my "room". As another poster
wrote, just about everybody makes a setup similar to the Bose so lots of
listening to various brands may prove worthwhile. You can really get nice
sound from this type of arrangement.

Best HT/surround system for a simmilar amount of money is the KEF micro
sytstem. The drivers are much larger, but the satelites are rounded and
have integral wall-mounts, so the total impact is actually LESS visually
than the Bose. Good speakers as well, thanks to the 4 inch midrange and
small but effective tweeter.

On a budget, the Energy Take 5 system will stomp on the Bose for $600-$700,
including a real 8 inch powered woofer. Energy's bottom line sub - not a
speaker in a book, but the real deal comes with it, and is great.

My recommendation, though, would be to go with small bookshelf speakers.
Tannoy makes their MXm series. Small and clean sounding, yet not very
expensive. They also make a nice surround wall-mount speaker that is
even less expensive than their MXm1 bookshelf. Despite its small
size, it is much better sounding than anything other than the KEF.

Assuming you use 4 of these for surrounds, these will do better than
other microsystems for about the same amount of money. The MXm1s
are the real deal - small bookshelf speakers that you can get away with
playing any type of music on in a pinch.

Tannoy pricing(since it is not listed on their site or online/easy to find)

Per pair:
MXm1 $250
MXm2 $350
MXm3 $500(tower)
MxM4 $700(tower)
MXCenter $250
MXr Surround $200(most everyone gets MX1s instead)

Note - most places will cut you a deal if you buy a full set, so
a 6.1 setup with 4 MXr and 2 MXm1(all are shielded, so placement is
up to you - I'd use the larger ones for the front speakers myelf)

http://cgi.audiogon.com/cgi-bin/cl.p...ull&1074096057
$550-$600 for a setup should be possible.

If you want very small satellites there is Cambridge Soundworks, they
sound quite a bit better than the Bose AM series AND cost less. For
similar cost but far better sound you could look for systems like Gallo
Micros or Boston Micro series.

If you can live with larger but still small sattelites (say less than
1 foot high) your options become numerous, some models I would personally
try to audition would be Paradigm Atom, Ascend CBM-170, NHT Superzero XU,
Axiom Audio M2i, B&W DM303, PSB Alpha.

With any of them you will want to add a sub "A little more solid, low bass
would be nice". Unfortunately, good bass does not come cheap. A couple of
good budget subs would be Paradigm PDR-10 or HSU STF2. Or you could save
a few bucks at the cost of base quality by going with an 8" sub.

Note - Several of these micro systems are hardly any larger than the
Bose cubes. Visually, a rounded face or an integrated mount/gimbal can
make it appear to take up less space than a square speaker.

Also, anytihng under 6 inches in all dimmensions is considered "tiny"
by most people, so sweating 1/2 inch here or there isn't a big deal.

I don't detest them for being big and successful. I don't like the way they

Lol- No problem. you obviously didn't know that asking about Bose in
most any audio newsgroup is the Usenet equivalent of cracking opening
the door to a room, rolling a hand grenade into the room, closing the
door and tiptoeing off...

As for me, I have a Bose Acoustimass 10 system in one of my rooms, and
I like it for what I use it for. The reason I got it was the Navy
Exchange at my base (the Navy's version of a PX) had them for 20% less
than what the online vendors were selling them for at the time, and
there was no shipping or sales tax.

I think Bose is popular for two major reasons:

First, they have HUGE advertising and distribution programs. Around
here (Norfolk, Virginia), there's a Bose store in the local mall. If
you want to hear speakers like B&W, Tannoy, Klipsh, Martin Logan, or
any of the other widely-acclaimed high-end speakers, you have to go to
a specialty high-end audio.

Second, if you look at the entire gamut of speakes out there, from the
absolute worst-sounding speaker in the world to the absolute best in
the world, I think it's fair to say that Bose is significantly above
average. I'll agree that they're second-rate when compared to the
speakers I listed above, but compared against the entire world of
speakers, they're better than average.

Now, if you add these two reasons together, you'll realize that Bose
speakers are the *first* speakers that a lot of people hear that are
better-than-average. People wander into the Bose store in the mall,
and hear a Lifestyle or Acoustimass system for the first time. If
they've grown up listening to low-end or middle-of-the-road consumer
gear, the Bose stuff is going to sound GREAT to them, so they buy it.

I guess what I'm saying in a nutshell is that for a lot of consumers,
Bose speakers are the best they've ever heard, and they're ignorant
even of the existence of better speakers because of the small-scale
advertising for the high-end speakers, so they buy the Bose, making
the Bose very popular.

There are a number of speakers for the same price as Bose that will sound
much, much better than Bose. A system based upon PSB speakers will blow
away Bose and end up cheaper, I think.

No, you also have to use the cheapest components when you assemble your
speakers. that is whaty qualifies bose as second rate.

Let's see: Does that mean Tide is a second-rate laundry detergent?

They make a quality product. bose does not.

Is Red Lobster a second-rate chain of seafood restaurants? [Name a

Food is not the issue here.

No, most people hate them because they make poor speakers. No argument
that they make more money than others. In case you didn't know it,
quantity does not equal quality.

Your statement is at best a lie and at worst slander. You are free to speak
for yourself, but you are not free to group everybody else under your

are absolutely wrong in speaking "universally."

apartment but I'm moving to my own place next week so I'm thinking about
getting a similar setup. While I don't really have any major complaints
about the BA6, I find it rather pricey.

Does anyone know of other products in that category but has a lower price
tag? Will be using this for both my TV and stereo. I listen to Jazz &
Techno(yes, weird mix) quite a lot with other stuff thrown in
occassionally
(absolutely no country!). A little more solid, low bass would be nice.

Thank you very much.
