Bose vs. Onkyo

[emorphien]

I cant comment on the PSB but if the other guys say its a good set then i will join in. The NAD is fairly good build with a large powersupply and basic functions. I personally am a fan of NAD in their price class and also Cambridge Audio. I would also look at the Cambridge Audio Azur 540R

Agreed, don't pass over Cambridge either.

I was shopping at an outlet mall recently. There was a Bose store there. I went in and stepped in front of one of their "listening cubes". They were selling a system that was com-posed of a DVD player, relatively small sub and four satellites. The price was 2,900 and something. I asked the salesman if the flat screen was included. He didn't like that too much.

They got a lot of guts asking that kind of money for a relavtively simple HT set-up. They also have nice stores with staff wearing uniforms. They have attitudes. They remind me of the Curtis Mathes stores when I was a kid. They were like "here it is, its the best and you're gonna pay". They need organized competetion.
