I know what you are thinking (I am another Bose lover) yes I am...But I am opening my options in looking for a home theater system. So I am not just stuck on bose.
The only thing that may open up your options would be to actually listen to other speakers. And to be fair listen to the speakers in the same price range as Bose. Just so you don't think that you are going cheap!
And after listening, you can make a fairly good judgement whether or not you are still a Bose lover. If you still decide that you do, it is not your fault. They are your ears and you will be the one listening to them anyway...and I am being honest
