Bose Wave music

Pros: Sounds uncanny, positively reflects on researchers.

Cons: Ex-pen-sive, poorly integrates with existing audio equipment.

Review:

Model reviewed: AWRCC1. There may be a few variations.

Box. This isn't just a box with some speakers. The inside of the radio contains a sounding chamber made of cast steel, complete with winding ducts and vibration...

Pros: Good quality. Seems to last over the years.

Cons: not impressive sound. Gets distorted at louder levels. No tone controls, no CD programming.

The Bottom Line: I would spend the extra money and try the larger WAVE GUIDE radio/CD player. I would expect that to sound much better by its design. Nice optional equipment too.

Review: I have re-written this epinion to be less sarcastic and more helpful to the potential buyer. You will see that I have rated this product as 'below average'. I have done so not because of the quality, but rather because of the cost/performance ratio...

Pros: Sounds great, no setup or antenna required for good FM reception.

Cons: Expensive.

Review: Yes, it's expensive, but the sound is great and the FM reception is better than other radios I've tried in the same room.

Pros: Great sound! Great design! Simple.

Cons: Price. Inability to adjust audio levels.

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...

Pros: Alarm clock function. FM sound and reception. Remote control size.

Cons: Remote reliability. Bose service. AM reception. Overpriced.

Review: I bought it because I was fairly pleased with early Bose speakers and in-car sound system and I was enticed by the ads.

Now I conclude that the Bose Wave Radio is a good alarm clock and very expensive radio. It has overly basey sound with...

Pros: Excellent Sound.

Cons: Longevity. Worked for two years before breaking.

Review: I owned my Wave Radio for two years and enjoyed excellent sound with absolutely no complaints. If you like waking to music in the morning there is no finer quality you'll hear from your night table. One morning after two years of use however it...

Pros: Relatively compact, lots of features, incredible crisp sound

Cons: Very pricey, cd changer not included, no buttons on actual unit

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...

Pros: colors...

Cons: not much...

Review: Well as usual, if you watch the late night informitials, your probaley thinking to yourself "why oh why, buy junk from TV"??

Truth is, they advertise it as "such loud dramatic sound", but really, after owning one and paying 300 dollars for...

Pros: Small, good sound for a radio, but many others are available for much much less

Cons: Cost is extreme and way not worth it

Review: The hype is just that... it's a radio a with decent bass... nothing more nothing less... worth about $150 bucks at most.

Pros: Looks great and sounds better. Has a huge snob factor.

Cons: Expensive! I would like to have had the ability to adjust base and treble.

The Bottom Line: If you don't have space for a regular micro-stereo, this system is your answer. Looks great and sounds better. The price is steep, but there are deals.

Review: What this system is worth to you will depend on your usage. It will not replace a decent quality micro sound system. If you have the space, a micro system would provide better value. However, the Bose is a lot more compact. We use ours in our...
