Bose Lifetstyle 28 DVD Home Theater System

Date of Review:  Apr 16, 2002
The Bottom Line: Highly recommended to the music/movie lover who demands high caliber sound and picture.
Review: Bose Lifetstyle 28 DVD Home Theater System

This theater system is actually quite a bit less than the Lifestyle 35 that we were originally wanting. It was $3,000 where the Lifestyle 28 only cost us $2400. Six hundred bucks isn't anything to...

Date of Review:  Sep 14, 2004
The Bottom Line: With $3000 burning a hole in your pocket, say goodbye to Bose. Grow up, and look into some real speakers.
Review: First off, I should state that I work at a major electronics retail store in the home theater department. Every single day, I try my best to put on a happy face as I show customers the multi-thousand dollar Bose packages available. As far as sales...

The Only Difference Between Men and Boys..

Date of Review:  Nov 8, 2001
The Bottom Line: Very pricey, very high quality sound. Costs as much as a used Mercedes, so expect it to last as long as one. It probably will.
Review: About Bose
Before I type another word, let me simply say that in 21 years of owning Bose products, I?ve never had the slightest bit of dissatisfaction with them. As an example, in 1980, I purchased a pair of Bose 901 speakers from the PX while...

Bloes

Date of Review:  Jan 11, 2005
The Bottom Line: I would recommend it for people living in a smallish living area where space is a premium and you have a built-in sub mount with an acoustic design.
Review: It's a wonderful sounding system. If you life in an 8x5 box, with baffling in your ceiling and are sitting directly on top of the subwoofer. The sound would be interactive then as you would get a tingly feeling in your bag whenever that massive star...

Bose supporter

Date of Review:  Mar 18, 2006
The Bottom Line: Works great and looks great doing it!
Review: I am listening to my Bose Lifestyle 48 right now and am loving it!

As our electronics employee says- Bose customer tend to be loyal. (Iam also assuming a little smarter than the average elecronics store employee).

Oh...Audi and...

B is for Bose

Date of Review:  Jan 10, 2008
The Bottom Line: You can shop around for other brands but as a long term Bose user I think it's a deal.
Review: This is written by a dinosaur who made the $1999 purchase in June 2007. The store then had a $200 discounted price (rare for Bose products) three weeks later but they honored the 30 day price guarantee and returned the difference to me. So, my cost...

Bose Lifestyle 28: Worth the Money???

Date of Review:  Jan 26, 2003
The Bottom Line: Not a bad product, but not the best price
Review: I just purchased the system while bose was offering the free wave radio and interest free financing for a year and feel as though I was lured into purchasing it more for that reason. Don't get me wrong, it sounds awesome and the clarity of the sound...

Open your ears

Date of Review:  May 20, 2004
The Bottom Line: I cannot recommend this product. For the money, this system sounds horrible.
Review: I recently started working at a higher end Audio/video store. I've worked at other big chain AV stores before but the audio selection at my current job is much wider. At my previous job, Bose was the top of the line and I thought it sounded great...

LS28 is worth it, but could be improved

Date of Review:  Mar 14, 2003
The Bottom Line: It's worth the money for the size, quality sound, integrated features.
Review: System is easy to setup and configure. Speakers are small so they won't
become another piece of furniture to arrange.

For an all-in-one unit Bose is a little pricey, but deals can be had on
ebay, watch out for fraud, never send...

Custom sound comes to my house

Date of Review:  Jun 14, 2002
The Bottom Line: It fits into my room nicely, looks great, is easy for my family to use, and sounds amazing. Check it out before you buy anything else.
Review: I've owned lots of audio products over the years, and played with lots more consumer and professional equipment. I know that lots of time and effort goes into designing and using recording studio equipment, mixing the audio, pressing the CDs, and...
