those things sound pretty good for what they are
at retail, it is a joke

At 200, it's a steal.

With RCA in and outs, you can hook up your CD player and you will have a decent bedroom/kitchen system.

I know it's a Bose, But the sound is very believable.

2 cents...
Main system
Pre-amp: Adcom GTP-350
Main Amplification: Crown PS-400
Surround Amplification: Crown PS-400
Mains: Polk SDA-2B Studio
Rear fill: Polk RTA-12
Subs: (3) Velodyne F1200b

My father in law has one of those giant turd knockers with the additional multi-cd base.  Space saving my ass.  The thing is huge and sounds like gay cowboys eating pudding.  I have a little portable Harmon Kardon hd radio with inputs in my office that sounds 10x better.  It cost 10x less as well.
