Bose home theatre is good for one thing only...if you want something small that will sound decent. If you get JL, pioneer's elite series, or any other well known brand...they'll blow that Bose system right out of the water. Just ask a salesman next time your in at any store but a bose store and they'll set you straight. The guys at Best Buy and Circuit City (when I was buying my systems) said to go with something else because it would sound better and cost less. My systems are great, loud, clear, better than a Bose, and a lot cheaper.
