not sure if you guys have seen this, but HT Review published a not overly positive review of the 301. I wonder how long before it is removed. Can't say any of us here disagree with them.

"Conclusion
The Bose 301 provides big, expansive sound within a relatively small footprint, and fits into many space-conscious home environments. However, its sonic properties lack the raw frequency response, dynamics, imaging and soundstaging necessary for higher-end music listening or home theater applications. At a lifestyle level, you can be very happy with Bose 301s. For the critical listener, you can get a much more accurate, low-reaching, powerful speaker for the same money. "
At a lifestyle level...these aren't Orb's or Gallo's for god's sake. There are as big and expensive as speakers that'll eat 'em for lunch...very funny Gav. I'd seen this before recently and forgotten. |
