Rating: - Excellent for the price, have great potential with headphone amp
I bought these speakers over 3 years ago, and I find them remarkable even after all this time.

Rating: - Fantastic value
Bought these to add some better sound to a stereo 32" TV. Very pleased. Bought them at BJs wholesale club for $59 plus tax.

The bass is soo pumped up you cant hear the lighter tones. When Listening to one of my favorites Slayer songs the guitar riff completely disappears just like it did on the BOSE 141 speakers. I also found that turning up the volume doesn't help any. If anything it distorts the music.

Never got the item. Order accepted 28 May and by late June I am asking questions. Bottom line is Amazon had the vendor refund my purchase price 100%. I am sure Bose Speakers are great.
