The Bose Solo TV sound system

Hiya @al n

Even though it's a very typical youtube offering (with regards to sound quality), one can easily hear that your old system really sang! Love the sound of the guitars That must have set you back a few pennies?

Absolutely brilliant.

 

it was a stunning sound and the whole system was collected over 25 years all in all, what with buying, selling, swopping, etc....

i dont miss it, nor do i miss listening to music like i used too. all my vinyl is in the loft, but it wont be sold. the cds get an airing now and again, but i genuinely dont have time with work and the family to get into it now. maybe, in retirement age i'll have another modest sized rig. the whole lot was snapped up within a week, it was mint, boxed, the lot.







i'd rather have my plants now, we as a family, and friends can all enjoy that! :-)

 

The amount of money that high end hifi costs is absurd!

I did a comparison whilst I had that too and it consisted of

Audio note io cartridge £1800
Audio origami pu7 arm £2500
Ear 843 signature phono stage and ear mc3 step tranny £2000

Versus

Rega rb 250 arm £150
Denon dl103 cartridge £120
Heed phono stage £130

The difference was negligible, and I mean tiny! It was then I realised it was all foo. The only vast difference I had in the system that really were head and shoulders above everything else I had tried over the years were the stax electrostatic headphones. Excellent out of head sound.

The hifi above (when retailed new) cost more than my first house back in 1994! And that was a brand new 3 bed semi detached!!! How mad is that!? Lucky for me, with buying over many years, it cost me a fraction of that!

 

Totally agree matey! A mate bought me a dab radio which he got on discount from asda ( he works there) and cost approx £18. I get just as much enjoyment listening to smooth or jazz on that whilst I cook as I did analysing the sound on the big rig! Mad innit?? I'd much rather have a packet of seeds or a tray of plug plants now, brings me vastly more pleasure!

 

Have a Bose and I can't be more impressed by the quality and punch of sound this small unit delivers across the room with precision and clarity.

 

Is that a Bose Solo TV sound system or a Bose radio/ CD player?

 

It's not the TV speaker but it's the speaker system that allows me to dock my Ipod player into it.

Generally Bose systems for various purposes have the same superb sound clarity. I would love one for my car.

 

Bottom line @Jenny namaste , you won't go far wrong with Bose

 

Well, the Bose solo box has arrived and Mr Namaste is busy installing.
I'll let you know how it sounds,
