High price ; Lacks dedicated modes ; No surround effects

Bose Cinemate 1SR review

 

Bose has to be different. You can't call the Cinemate 1SR a soundbar, it's a sound array. Likewise, the sub is not a sub, it's an Acoustimass module. Bose is also coy about giving out technical specifications, so I know not what the power output is of...

Bose CineMate Speaker System

 

Excellent design and the quality you would expect from BOSE

Very expensive speaker stands that you really do need to set the system up correctly.

Small system but much better sound and base than my nuch bigger Pioneer system
