He obviously was a tremendous achiever, but the current Bose products I have heard are terrible sounding. The signal processing they add to create the "spacy"effect destroys the mix, the balances of the instruments, the placement, it's all lost in a hazy phase fog of sound. I don't get it. To my ear, even many of the cheap desktop systems from companies like Logictech sound better. If you're looking for decent sound at a low price, there are many low cost powered studio monitors that sound pretty good, like these from M-Audio: http://www.m-audio.com/index.php?do=products.family&ID=studiomonitors http://www.m-audio.com/index.php?do=products.family&ID=studi... I don't think they are good as professional monitors, but for everyday listening pretty damn nice.
