Bose HT worth the price?

Posted by FasterEddy (A) on January 28, 2002 at 21:11:28

I'm a relative newbie to HT--I have a Sony Dolby Pro Logic-based system with Cambridge Soundworks 5 + 1 speaker system. I'm considering upgrading to a Dolby Digital 5.1 system.

I looked at a couple of the new Bose HT systems--the Lifestyle 28 & 35. They sound pretty good to my non-audiophile ears. They take up very little space and have lots of cool features. However, these systems are pretty pricey--$2500 for the 28 and $3000 for the 35.

My question is: are these systems worth the price, or is Bose charging a huge premium for the name? Are there comparable systems for less, or better systems for the same price?

Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

Ed
