Just heard the lifestyle 48 not being high end audio savy I was impressed.Incredible sound comming from very small speakers.But before I buy I like to learn my options, We are looking for great quality music.Is there anything out there that might be better,. We dont watch the tube much so I dont need the dvd portion of it. Any ideas would be apprecited Mike

The biggest gripe I have with Bose is the price. For $4k and a bit of auditioning you could probably do a bit better or at least as good for less. Much of the price for Bose goes toward marketing. Don't believe people that tell you it is crap, it is not. I still think 901's do midrange better than most speakers at ANY cost.

A cheaper alternative would be Mirage Omnistat matched to a decent Marantz, Denon or Pioneer electronics. For subs I would look at Veleodyne, SVS and Martin Logan.

At $4k your options open up quite a bit.
