New member Username: MtolaniAtlanta, Ga Usa Post Number: 1 Registered: Aug-06 | We bought a house in which the lat owner left behind a set of bose home theater spekers but took the subwoofer and mid speaker. I currently have just a reg dvd player a widscren tv.when i spoke to a store they said the bose speakers cannot be hooked up with any other subwoofer since it is wired for them only. I don't want to spend extra on the speakers. what is my best and cheapest option to set up a decent home theater.what would i need thanks mike |

You now need front left and right speakers, a center channel speaker and a 8 or 10 inch sub. I llike Paradigm http://www.paradigm.com/Website/SiteParadigmProduct/ParadigmModels/SystemChoice/ systems.html. For a reciever an inexpensive receiver from Onkyo, Pioneer or Denon. http://www.usa.denon.com/ProductDetails/243.asp |

My Dad came home last year boasting about his new Bose surround sound system he just got suckered into buying..I didn't have the heart to tell him it's junk but he wouldn't know the difference anyways. POLK AUDIO!! Expensive but I haven't changed ever since '98! Trust, you won't be dissapointed by even the cheapest set of speakers. As for your Bose, take them apart and replace your smoke detector and door bell chime with them. |
