Bose Lifestyle 25 Theater System

Pros: Bose Uses Another Name For Dolby Pro Logic???!!!
Cons: Expensive, Not Many I/Os, For $2500 You Can Do Much Better!

I can't believe that I fell for the Bose marketing long ago. I used to be one of those people who said, "Bose is the best." Well, times have changed. Now, the Bose Lifestyle 25 sounds good, but you have to look much deeper into it. I was playing the...

Pros: Incredible sound experience.
Cons: PRICE (and I don't prefer the CD cartridge)

How many advertisements promise, subtly or outright, that your life will change if you buy the promoter’s particular product?

Pros: Low Profile, Looks, RF Remote
Cons: PRICE, Lack of True Bass, Lack of Video inputs, Number of Inputs, No DTS

I have listened to this system with pretty much every application possible: home theater, party music at MAX volume, TV(Dig Cable) and Soft Music. I have also done a good deal of research into the physical capabilities of the system via Bose and...

Cons: Cd player is not "feature rich" (minor)

Pros: Great sound, discreet looks, good quality

Pros: Value compared to high end systems, smallness of design, superb sound, radio frequency remote
Cons: not enough speaker wire, mounting brackets for small speakers too expensive, suggest alternates

I have an ear for music and can appreciate the effort and design it takes to recreate the sound as accurately as it was produced. I have followed Bose since 1988 when I first noticed the speaker system on the market and had always dreamed of owning such...

Cons: too much money for old technology

I've been working for an electronics store for over 2 years and there are many things that consumers ask when purchasing a system, especially when they are willing to shell out a good amount of money. Reliability, sound quality, value for their...

I am new to this site and I just stumble upon it by chance. While I was looking around on this site, I was very intrigued by all of the opinion surrounding Bose. I did take the time to read about 20 or so pro-Bose and anti-Bose...

Pros: Quality, functionality and flexibility
Cons: It has no flaws

My wife and I are musicians. Our ears are trained to listen for quality in any sound. When we listened to this system in the store and compared it to all the others, we knew this was it. Don't even let the price fool you. To get a comparable system...

Pros: Fans of drama, romance and comedy will enjoy this system.
Cons: Fans of action movies may eventually crave a better subwoofer.

"Bose - Better Sound Through Research."
This phrase totally rings true when you look at the Bose Lifestyle 25. It is perhaps the highest quality all in one system on the market for home theater. Not only does it work superbly for home theater,...

Pros: Truly great sound with a small footprint.
Cons: Remote control sometime do not work properly

Before deciding to buy this system, I did lots of research on Bose and other brands. Given Bose's reputation, it was not a surprise to have a very easy set-up. Suddenly, I can appreciate the rich sound in the movies. It is definitely worth my $$$....
