Bose 3-2-1 GS Series II DVD system review: Bose 3-2-1 GS Series II DVD system

Bose 3-2-1 GS Series II DVD system

Compact system has integrated progressive-scan DVD player, AM/FM tuner, two satellite speakers, and subwoofer; delivers simulated surround-sound effects without rear speakers; easy to set up and use.

Expensive; no HDMI output; only one A/V input; proprietary cables limit speaker-placement options; lackluster sound with music.

The Bose 3-2-1 Series II DVD system does a surprisingly good surround-sound imitation with just two satellites, but it's overpriced.

Bose 3-2-1 GS Series II silver

The Bose 3-2-1 Series II's compact design makes it a suitable candidate for bedrooms and small home theaters where center and rear speakers and their associated wires would be too intrusive. The two small, graphite-gray satellite speakers (3.5 by 7.9...

Bose 3-2-1 GS series (black) review: Bose 3-2-1 GS series (black)

Bose 3-2-1 GS series (black)

Tiny; easy to set up and use; surround-sound effects from just two satellite speakers and a subwoofer.

Overpriced; poor sound imaging; so-so midrange sound.

This system is an option for less critical listeners who don't want speakers littering their living rooms.

Bose 3-2-1 GS series (black) review

Leave it to Bose to buck the current fashion that calls for more and more speakers in home theaters. The signal processing built into the company's 3-2-1 Home Entertainment System gives the impression of surround sound from just two small satellites...

Bose 3.2.1 GSX compact home theater system Review and Prices

Sure, anyone can put together a fancy home theater system, but leave it to Bose to create something entirely unique. The Bose 3.2.1 GSX takes the acclaimed 3.2.1 GS series a step further by adding a hard drive that can store up to 200 hours of music....

BOSE 321 GS Series II DVD home entertainment system

Like some remote theological concept, sometimes the more you search for an explanation for something, the harder it becomes to find. Understanding why American audio R and D guru's BOSE have chosen Ted Rogers' famous catch phrase, 3.2.1, for their...

Look, size, sound, acoustic technology

Price, display size, no recording capacity

Overall, if you've got an overriding desire for quality, design, compact style and £1250 you are itching to be rid of the product bus stops at BOSE. The 3.2.1 Series II GS is another example of why the guys in the lab make the serious sound-lovers...
