I have been reading the blasting bose was getting on the forum. I happen to be around a bose show room.I thought let check the bose...i mean how bad can they get. i heard the acosuticmass series and the Bose 301. well the acoustics mass suck . NO Lows at all and the stereo image was also questionable. Well but i was quit impressed by the 301. well it was priced a bit higher $324 but good power handling.I was thinking of buyin a bookselves for the hall.. are the bose 301 worth the sound or are they better ones. if so which one. i did hear the paradigm bookselves.. but they dint impress me like the bose 301.Are the bose 301 good or have i been sucked in the bose gimmick. Please let me know. thx a lot. have a nice day
