Nice Sound, very discreet

Date of Review:  Dec 22, 2003
Review: My reviews are based on the overall feelings of past consumers who I have come into contact with regarding their systems. Being in the electronics industry, I am hopefully able to give you an accurate picture of the overall consumer feeling on the...

Big Sound Can Come in Small Packages

Date of Review:  Dec 23, 2003
The Bottom Line: If you need great sound without wires and space, the 321 is an excellent choice if you can live with the Media Center deficiencies.
Review: Normally, I prefer a full surround sound system if the room and setup will accommodate it. I recently bought a house that has a large living room and it would have been difficult and unsightly to string wires to rear speakers without running through...

Mediocre sound at Top Shelf price

Date of Review:  Mar 16, 2005
Review: I hate to admit I spent $1299 on this system. I should have been suspect when I read the disclaimer they place in each box. It explains that WE don't understand what true sound imagery is, that THEY have defined it for us and if we don't agree, we...

Great bang for the buck

Date of Review:  Aug 27, 2003
The Bottom Line: Unless your goal is to get the best "surround sound" effect possible....this system is a great choice. It delivers about 85% of other systems costing $3,000 or more.
Review: I ordered my bose system and a DLP televsion at the same time....but the bose arrived at my house a few days earlier so I had a chance to really scrutinize the sound before my big screen arrived. It took only 3 business days for the 3-2-1 system to...

Bought it Jan. 10, 2003 and returned it Jan. 11, 2003

Date of Review:  Jan 16, 2003
The Bottom Line: This system is junk!! See the reviews at bizrate.com. That many people can't be wrong.
Review: I saw this product at the Bose store, and thought it would be an excellent system based on the Bose name. I set up the system, and I was able to get the CD and radio to work. However, for $899.00, I felt the sound was extremely poor. (It sounded...

A Great Sounding System for your Average Family

Date of Review:  Feb 9, 2003
The Bottom Line: A Quality system with great BOSE sound, simple setup, HIGHLY Recommended. Bose has a knack for simplifying without compromising.
Review: I bought this system from the online military exchange (store) for $799. If you are active duty military or reserve/guard you should try there first. I got it for $100 cheaper than other commercial establishments. Let me first say that I am not a...

Great sound system for most everyone

Date of Review:  Mar 18, 2003
The Bottom Line: Awesome product, highly recommended unless you are planning on having a professional sound stage in your living room. Ease of use and Bose name makes it even better.
Review: I bought this system after researching other comparable home theater systems. I thought it was a good fit considering it would be my starter system, and it has been. Very good value for the money. Easy to set up, instructions are very clear. Bose...

Bose 3-2-1 Update

Date of Review:  Apr 6, 2003
The Bottom Line: Please remember to go the website and sign up for all software updates. It will keep the system up to date.
Review: Initially I questioned the quality of the Bose System and actually brought a defect to the attention of the Company (it would shut off in the middle of any complicated DVD such as music and shuffling through the chapters). Within two days I had a...

Buyers remorse

Date of Review:  May 8, 2003
The Bottom Line: Skip this product and put in a 5-speaker system with normal DVD features. This was a good concept, but a poor implementation.
Review: This system sounded fantastic in the showroom. In fact, the demo system sounded so good, I bought on impulse, without first doing my normal research. The fact that I wouldn't have to run wires for the extra speakers was the icing on the cake.
