A Pricey Bose System But Is It Worth The Incredible Sound...?

Date of Review:  Mar 1, 2008
The Bottom Line: It is a great unit with great sound but it may be a bit expensive for non-audiophiles.
Review: Years ago my father had bought the Bose Wave radio before it had a cd component. My dad is a huge fan of Bose products, especially after he bought the Bose Quiet Comfort 2 Headphones. With the initial Wave unit the sound was good but we could never...

Bose Wave Radio: The best clock radio money can buy.

Date of Review:  Feb 1, 2005
The Bottom Line: The best clock radio money can buy.
Review: When I first got the Bose Wave Radio many years ago I was totally amazed at the quality of the sound. The Bose Wave Radio really did sound like a larger radio. How large? About a large boom box, but not a home stereo system.

Why I got it...

Bose Wave Music System - Little System, Big Sound

Date of Review:  Feb 26, 2009
The Bottom Line: The Bose Wave Music System - Unbelievable sound, Contemporary look, Small footprint but expensive. Audiophiles should like it but not as their only home sound system.
Review: I had been eyeing the Bose Wave Music System for years but at a cost of $499.00 I could never justify the cost.  After several disappointing experiences with stereo systems over the past twenty plus years, we just wanted a nice sounding music system...

Love It or Hate It !

Date of Review:  Jul 18, 2005
The Bottom Line: The Bose Wave Music System takes some getting used to, BUT once you do you won't regret buying it !
Review: My wife & I like to treat ourselves to something nice once in a while and this year we wanted to replace the stereo system we have in our dining room with something which would sound better and take up less room on the sideboard. We both enjoy our...

Bose: it's good but it's not magic, which fools rush to expect.

Date of Review:  Mar 22, 2008
The Bottom Line: For the money and for its size, Bose is a bargain. It's got many useful features and delivers really good (not spectacularly magic) sound.
Review: In fine, the Bose Wave music system is a little wonder.

Reading reviews here and there, it's clear that people who don't like this system expect things it wasn't meant to do. Some complain that it doesn't do what a multi-thousand dollar...

Twice as nice.

Date of Review:  Nov 30, 2005
The Bottom Line: If you have the $500 to part with then go for it...treat yourself, chances are you deserve it.
Review: My wife bought me a Bose Wave Radio/CD two years ago for Christmas. I have been extremely happy with it. The sound is great in our bedroom (or any other room for that matter). So when I decided to buy another small music system for the family room...

The Wave music system & the truth about Bose and their products

Date of Review:  Apr 11, 2007
The Bottom Line: I can't recommend this ultra-expensive clock radio to anyone. Nothing about it warrants the price tag.
Review: Here's a little-known truth that has been known
by enthusiasts within the Home Theater and audio
community for years....

Bose is all hype and little sizzle when compared
to other brands that cost much less.

A premium $ystem at a premium price

Date of Review:  Jan 12, 2006
The Bottom Line: A high-priced but high performance system that does what it's told.
Review: I will admit it. I was suckered in to the home shopping network trap. Watching ShopNBC one night, I came across the new Bose Wave Music System. I was glued to the television for about an hour, after some intriguing demonstrations and countless...

Amazing Bose Model!!

Date of Review:  Sep 7, 2005
The Bottom Line: I would recommend buying this if you have the money and you truly think this is the Stereo is for you.
Review: System Vanity
Well this system comes in 3 colors last time I checked, Greyish, Black and White. I personally like the white since this system is hard to get dirty there is no reason for buying a dark color just so that you can hide dirt. It has...

In a word: A fantastic system...

Date of Review:  Jan 20, 2007
The Bottom Line: The system offers amazing sound for the size. It has a rich, natural sound in a compact unit that can be moved easily. Reliability is also excellent.
Review: We bought a Lifestyle system a while ago while there was a promotion, where you got a free Wave Radio/CD.

I was impressed at the time with the Wave Radio/CD - but it did seem to be a bit expensive. Nevertheless it did provide a natural,...
