JohnnyD 0 #4 March 28, 2009 I checked out consumer reports when I bought mine. I was very surprised at their reviews and thoughts and what they considered to be a best buy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

JohnnyD 0 #6 March 28, 2009 I was looking for the starter end type. The two things consumer reports was big on was the space its going in and the difference in sound quality for the money. Interestingly enough, consumer reports rated a pioneer system that was around $650 the best buy. It was one of those "out of the box" deals. I would have bought that one except I didn't really have anywhere to mount the rear speakers and I didn't want to run wire so I ended up buying the bose system. It was $300 more but no wire to run and no rear speakers. Sound quality is awesome. I get compliments on it all the time. On the higher end, a neighbor of mine just did a bose throughout his entire house, garage, and backyard. Its crazy nice with unbelievable sound everywhere, but he also paid a fortune for it.
