- Welcome to a new, short, 4 part series called "Spending 2 weeks with a Bose system! I completely disconnected my entire polk audio/svs system and replaced it with a Bose! I'm not sure how I feel about my decision yet.. but we'll find out in 2 weeks!
- บันเทิง
superb story telling and video creation! i like how this question arises and making of video was made and why you decided to make it!
I appreciate it man it was a very fun short series to make
I enjoy my Bose Acoustimass 15 series ii from time to time and for the size they aren't bad. Got it basically brand new for only 75 bucks. Whenever I'm serious about my audio I let my SVS system take over lol.
I would interested to hear your thoughts on comparison between sound on your marantz vs Bose on board DSP. I think the series is a great idea! I hope the satellite speakers don't blow when you run audessey though!
I almost shed some tears as you were disconnecting your Polks!!!!!! This experiment should be interesting!!!! Looking forward to your updates over the nest couple of weeks.
Fantastic idea KP guy, allways wanted to know how Bose performs!
Which hands do you use to turn the Bass Knob? Left or right hands? For me, left hands!
I wonder what the frequency response of the whole system is and how loud you can play it without running into any compression at all.
You know I'm gonna test it
Hello,
Can you please tell me how I can delete the music of Bose Lifestyle 48 (Umusik)? I had once had keyboard shortcuts on the BOSE AV48 to do this. But I forgot, maybe you know?
There is also a keyboard shortcut to organize the BOSE-Umusic after songs have been deleted, you also know the combination of buttons on the BOSE AV48 Media Center
Greetings and stay HEALTHY
I have a Bose Acoustimass 10 Series V with the double cubes 5.1 and I like the sound but it has basically no bass. I want to know how I can improve the bass on the subwoofer.
You can't other than moving it in different places around the room and seeing if it sounds better
I have the newer model of those. It's old but I got it for free lol. I really like it because it was free. It does have great sound but not the best. I mean 10 times better than just a TV. It just doesn't get as loud as I like for parties and such. It's a great system but nothing like my Polk in my man cave. Can't wait to see what you think.
It has exceptional sound up to mid sound volume. I can play with the equalizer to get it loud. The bass is ok but not what I like.
I forgot to add one thing I love is the remote will reach to my neighbor's house lol. It's crazy how far it'll reach. Anyway great vid can't wait!!
I think I’ll hook up my Polk speakers directly to the drivers and bypass all the crossover circuitry... that should work.
question i think i might have missed it but what cable do you use for a smart tv that is only a couple years old?
Are you asking about my projector? I don't use a TV in my living room
Good video, I agree with your commentary of all of the wire management the Bose system seems to add. It feels like double the wiring since it all needs to go through the subwoofer and then out again the the speakers.
I have the same speakers my dad bought them before I was born and they work excellent for the past 20 years with an external yamaha amp excellent for movies and music and conversation pretty much everything
Allow me to please say, that your dad is such a smart guy. For I say bose, is for life. You never try bose. You embrace the experience it offers.
I secured the bose lifestyle 28 / 48 for my two boys, and the can't stop appreciating it in every conversation we have.
I can only wonder if they love it better than their girlfriends. 😆
@@hawkakroma I agree for a 23 year old system that is still selling used at close to original price the only sound system that I heard that came close to the boses is from Sony but still the Bose were better
Bro mee too my father have 5he same system @@thusmarshal8815
great video bro keep up the great work
do you know how do i canhave a BOSE SW VERSION 03.03.04?
Thanks and i wish you all the best...
Not sure unfortunately
What are the big speakers you moved in the beginning? Polkaudio LSI?
Also that subwoofer is massive. Is that SVS?
Yes Polk LSIM speakers and dual pb4000s
I love BOSE. I sold Bose in the early 1990's and they are still my fave surround sound system. : }
Im using 6 of the 161 . 2 for downfiring atmos and DTS X and 301s for left and right , polk audio center and 4 polk audio subs with a ONKYO DOLBY ATMOS AND MARANTZ PROCESSOR and people that have been in my cinema and remember i use to use towers now they said they actually hear and increase in sound quality. You should try making a video testing this set up...you will think different of Bose sound . More sound less speaker clutter.
Thanx Dude for this video. I was playing with my thoughts to buy used old BOSE system, after i couldnt find a descent soundbar at all. But apparently bose will be not my solution. I gues eventually i will go fo a good stereo speaker
I don’t care about the haters I love Bose is incredible the sound that’s coming out of those little speakers
How did you bypass circuitry?
Just don't use it. Plug it to a receiver
How did you hook it up with your Marantz
Plugged the speaker wires to my amplifier
I'm open minded. Looking forward to hear from you.
Where did you bought your AM 15 for only 75 bucks? You are so lucky
This is going to be interesting. 😂😂👍🏻
I m today Bay This Model Old but Gold Bose Accusticmass 15 series 1 Amazing Bass ... lovely
This deserves way more views
Share it! Shout it out haha thank you
Can't wait
The speakers are not good it’s the Bose processing that makes the Bose name to get best sound hook the satellites to the subwoofer and let it handle processing
Is it not more intresting to test the system with the original Processing it was created with?
Based off your alls feedback I'll probably try both.
That’s actually my dream setup . Bose
I've owned alot of systems from Bose. The soundtouch 300 + am300, 321 gs ii, lifestyle 28iii, 535 ii, and a bunch of Bluetooth speakers and headphones. You should've gotten a lifestyle v28 III system. You can buy them extra cheap now for like 250-300 bucks. And they sale fast if you wanna get rid of it after reviewing. Reason why, is because the lifestyle does its own processing and EQ for the small satellites and bass module. Plus, The PS 28 III sounds alot better than the older acoustimass module, and hits alot lower if placed in the right location. It's not going to be any where near your chest or shaking your apartment. But it's better than the system you bought lol.
This one is trash lol
Kpaceguy you were supposed to wait for part 4 to say that!! Lol. And yes I agree. The acoustimass 15 series doesn’t sound good at all. Bose does HEAVY EQ’ing and processing on the lifestyle systems from 06’and up, which sound much better.
@@gabe6959 I'll probably never get to hear one in home! They cost more than I'm willing to pay for just for a sound test
Kpaceguy how much did you pay for the one you just bought?
@@gabe6959 After shipping was added to it, 226.
Which bose is this one?
acoustimass 10 version 5
Dope video bro
I appreciate it my guy
How did you connect them
I plugged them up as bose intended. From receiver to sub. From sub to speakers
@@Kpaceguy yea didn't think you could connect them directly to the receiver
@@SaimesierP I can. The sub is directly connected to the Subwoofer out of course and the speakers have regular speaker terminals as any other company
Man those Bose speakers are dirty! I have 2 sets of AM7's that look brand new.
It’s funny I have bose 501 in my room and they have highs and heavy lows
Yes bose 501 has deep bass bass, clear mids and highs when paired with 100+ watts warm sounding amplifier🙂
Which model bose is this!?
Acoustimass 10
@@Kpaceguy Yep thats the Subwoofer.. Wondering which lifestyle system it came out as..
Nice Boss volume good🎧
Did you like this home theater or was it bogus
We will have to find out! Video coming soon
@@Kpaceguy ok I'll be posted to see it I have never heard a theater system of boss heard of it but never heard it in person allot of people say there good but there's allot of other people say they sound like crap lol
You can't get the experience if you don't wire it the way they intended it. The speakers are inferior to your $10,000 system, bit with the wizardry, they can come close, which is what makes Bose interesting. At a fraction of the price you can come close.
Pair that with they lifestyles systems and you get cool tech like Virtual Sound stage or phantom 500.500 audio. (Complete and continuous surround.)
Bise is not really a speaker company, but more of a sound tech company. So just looking at the speakers alone won't give you the whole picture.
Ok its a very old system and it is not a lifestyle system with bose AvR and Adaptiq, but i know its too expensive for just a test. In my opinion only the sub and satelites sounds bad and this are not jewelcubes or even onnijewels and not a true subwoofer like the new one. Its like apple with iphone. It has lower end hardware but because of its own software and handshake its faster than other phones , but im interested in your result
We need Bose to sponsor a video so I can test the lifestyle 650
@@Kpaceguy haha but iff you have a good experience, than people will thing thats because bose sponsored itXD maybe you have some days someone who can borrow a newer lifestyle
System:) but in my honest opinion, even i have a bose and loved it, your system is a fu***** highend system and will destroy it easily
I beleave the bass module has the crossovers for the cubes you might blow the speakers hooking them to the amp
Well my processor would still set the Crossover but I get your point
Sorry for believe
Jewel speakers are smaller but more powerful and clearer sounding.
What the hell are those? Those huge speakers.. :)
Polk Audio LSIM 707s
I got a accousitmass 5 serie 3 I must say it his quite low, prob till 27hz
Yurian Huizing but can you crank it up without the sub compressing the low?
@@peterotremba8980 yep, can crank it up not super. I do also own a bangolufsen setup with soon a beolab 2 but for now I drive a diy scans peak sub 10inch
@@yurianhuizing2352 you own 2 of the worst rip offs in audio

@@yurianhuizing2352 b&o are just as bad.overpriced lifestyle shit.
But if you really want to get bass in your speakers then you would j.g ave to test Bose larger speakers their 301 and and their amazing 161 for surrounds this babies will give you bass and amazing surround effect. Use a polk for center or their 151 as bose never made a good center speaker only sound bar
Firstly, MOST people don't want those huge speakers that you have in their houses. That's a fact. That's the majority of consumers, who Bose targeted with those speakers. Hobbyists like Stonehenge in their houses. That's cool. But, most people don't.
Secondly, you have an old as dirt speaker system in that old AM15. And, the modules are NOT subs. Never were marketed as such. They could never get that low. And, you might be amazed to know that speakers were not "software based" until fairly recently. There was no such thing as software updates back then. Did not exist.
Thirdly, an AM15 like you have is not a replacement for Stonehenge. The differences will be immediately apparent. It's like comparing a big rig to a Honda. Two different customers. Two different applications. Neither can do the job of the other.
I used to have a system similar to you. A paradigm system that I eventually got tired of looking at and even more nauseated at as I realized how much money I'd wasted to watch fucking TV. It just hit me one day. What the fuck did I do? Blew all this money....to watch....movies. I chalk it up to being young and dumb. I don't know. Anyway, in the end I got rid of all of it and now have a small, simple soundbar with a subwoofer that I rarely ever turn on. And, I couldn't be happier with it. Point being, priorities change, and for most people stuff like this is not at all a priority. They just want something that sounds good enough and that they don't see. That's what Bose went after. In fact they created the whole sub/sat segment of the industry. It ain't for everybody. But, neither is Stonehenge.
Bose saves alot of space 🤣😎✌️
"no high, no lows... Must be Bose !" 🤔
So it's "FLAT"...
Funny !!!
It's exactly what the "audiophiles" looks for !!!
It's all audiophiles bs...
In all cases it depends where you place the speakers. Every speaker has its own signature. Of course I mean a quality one.
Even my SoundLink mini can "rock the walls" if I place it properly. Everyone is asking me "where's the sound coming from" when I'm at work.
"No highs no lows... I love my Bose !"
👍
With audio equipment, theres pretty much always a wiring mess. Definitely NOT something unique to Bose lmao.
Me watching this with a Bose sound bar 😳
Bose Bars are actually pretty good
I'm not sure it's a fair test not to hook it up as bose intended and set speakers to large as that is how it's meant to be iv had bose in the past and even when I was a kid the first time I heard a lifestyle system in the 90s I couldn't believe the sound that came from those speakers obviously that was probably 30 years ago now and a lot has changed
In the next video I explain I hooked it up as intended. Although it's probably more a disadvantage that I did it this way
@Kpaceguy well mabe but then ur getting the true bose experience good or bad 😅 I like bose not there new stuff I think there good better then all the other one box packages but obviously it's not going to complete with a separate system for the same money however most systems have there limitations I one way or other
🤷🏾♂️ why milk it? 1 maybe 2 part review
Well I don't want it to be a review. I want it to be an experience
Wrong system to test , not their top of the line. You should had tested the lifestyle with the jewel cube speakers with the metal grills. From the 90s now that's a whole diferent sound experience.
It was too expensive for just a fun type of video
LIFESTYLE®
V20 should have been your 1st choice - oh well...
so you unbox and show the cables? WOW.
Why wouldn't I? Lol
@@Kpaceguy because people can figure it out on their own. Bose is crap. If you want a good soundbar, go with JBL
@@hollyroni5003 you'd be surprised..
I like bose
Could have done all this in one video.
Ok you edit that then
just bought one set for 20$ 😂
No highs no lows it must be Bose
weedsmith 93 Bose is actually starting to catch on to things. They are adding tweeters to more and more of their systems! I just would never buy a Bose system for home theater use and if it doesn’t have a tweeter or sub.
Lackluster highs and muddy lows, overpriced? It must be Bose!
What's the point of doing this against the way that Bose would recommend? Bose didn't get famous from doing it the way you're going to do it. The sub is designed to do exactly what you assumed it would do. Sorry, but I fail to see the fairness.
The sub is adding a crossover exactly like my marantz will do. The sub is adding some sort of eq I'm sure. Marantz will apply that as well. The Bose isn't necessarily doing any of that for the benefits of my room. If anything, it should sound better. Of course I'll listen to both ways though.
@@Kpaceguy I have to agree with Dee on this one, Bose are made to work within its own Eq system. This mindset goes all the way back to their Famous or infamous 901's. Setting them up using other Eq (Audyssey, Pioneer etc...) compromises the results.
@@recoveryone1 Guess we'll have to try both then. Which I'm not opposed to doing
Implying Bose has an amazing mid-range, but I think otherwise ;)
Hi you r very mush into system. I hv a request if you send me bose passive crossover network for me if you dont mind i dont have money to pay you back i m from india
Yeah man, you gotta wire it up like Bose intended. Bose has to work it's "magic". Same reason you wouldn't run 901's without the equalizer. We all know Bose sucks, but I LOVE the factory Bose setup in my old Acura. Also, their noise cancelling headphones are pretty good.
Imagine saying that bose sucks, that is absolute bs, only some systems suck but bose has also made some of the best systems ever
@@ilcarlino752 If by "some" you mean most, that's what I said. The home stuff is 90% sucky compared to regular speakers, but they did good work in cars and headphones.
@@mmmbbq 40%,not 90%
@@mmmbbq you can find some rlly good speakers
If satellites are design to be connected and run via bose cross overs ( subwoofer) why not test it that way….
You gonna test in it the way test is not recommended…
I tested it the way its recommended. You'll find that out in the next episode
Wow thats some big clumsy speakers u got there....
I stopped watching when he said he is connecting the satellites directly to his subwoofer.
Very nice system btw
I just ordered an Acoustimass 5 series 2 from eBay, we’ll see..
They're supposed to be connected to the subwoofer which is how I did it
Your Monolith subwoofer? Or directly to your amp/receiver? I ask this because i feel to get the most honest assessment of the system, the Bose system should be connected to the amp, with no auto-set-up if possible, for the most authentic experience (pre-2006)
When I said monolith I meant the monolith 7 amplifier directly. But like you just said Its best to wire it the way bose said to. So I did the entire series
Think bose is bad? Try Boss 😂
I would never
But remember its not fair to compare your large super expensive towers made for large venues using Bose lower quality system made for a very small room. To get Bose quality sound in a larger room full of highs and lows you need to get bose towers speakers made in the 80s or their bookshelve 301s that are a really loud sounding with plenty of mid bass and highs and their superb 161 with tweedler drivers for an amazing sound in a large room, and add one polk audio 12 inch sub to the mix or 4 in my case. and a atmos Dts X receiver, and Then you can give a good opinion on Bose sound. You will be blown away. But a fair close match to your towers will be their 901s. Otherwise your video has no relevance.
Well it wasn't a comparison per say. It was just a fun video seeing what it would be like to switch systems AND to see if this certain system was worth the 300 dollars it still costs for one
I've never heard anyone despise Bose I do love sonos but Bose is some of the best out there it's crisp and even! Edit: I forgot to add the acoustimass series was absolutely horrible I meant now with their newer line! And there is no doubting that I mean normally in TH-cam videos you can't hear speakers for how they are at all they all sound the same, but this you could hear that it was muddy and exactly the way you described with someone talking over their mouth.
tells everybody what year the speakers are from (1990's) then complains about the cables! Smart one there was no blue tooth back then! Think before you roll camera !
Bluetooth was invented in 1994.. this system came out in 2005?
Speakers aren't connected wirelessly through Bluetooth either lol
j-u-n-k
bose, overpriced "white van scam" speakers 🤣🤣🤣
you are just posting this video to implant your trash impression about bose into us and also get views,
if u feel like they are trash then try out their new systems and just dont talk trash about it.
and also keep in mind that u are testing one of their beginning models
Not really lol. I wouldn't spend 200 dollars for a video just to talk trash. You also have only watched 1 or 4 videos lol
@@Kpaceguy i ve watched all the videos in you r series lol
Your study is already flawed because you have a used system..to fail straight out of the box makes any further study invalid.
If you watch the next video I tell you that I used it as bose intended
