No
I made a trip to a mall in Tampa, to get a replacement for an iPod whose home button had gone to the great Apple in the sky. While there, it occurred to me to walk into the Bose store and check out its "wave radio." The moment my son and I walked in, we were ushered into a listening room for a...

Bose is one of the most recognized names in audio. Bose's advertising is outstanding, but how about their audio systems? I took a trip to my local Bose dealer to put their Flagship, the Bose Lifestyle 48 to the test. It retailed for only $3,999.00. I will say that the sales people were very...

I have had this system for about 7 months now, so hopefully I have experienced all I can and offer you my full personal opinion about the Bose Lifestyle 38.
As a result, I am quite satisfied with the system overall. Too bad it isn't close to perfect, considering the amount of investment...

Pros
The versatility of the system is the biggest asset. The technical support is outstanding.
Cons
The biggest downfall has been the inability to load MP3 tracks. I HATE THIS!
Recommended it?
Yes
We work from home and were listening to music through our NuTone intercom system. Although we could connect CD players and MP3 players to the NuTone system, it was only a monotone unit. After meeting with several vendors about the retrofit of a whole house stereo system, we elected to purchase the...
