    In my humble, and somewhat learn-ed opinion, I think Bose is VERY over-rated.

    I'll put my Onkyo receiver up against any Bose, any day...

    Even the Onkyo was abit expensive, I think, but FAR less than a Bose system. Plus, with the way it's built, it should last a very long time.. Plus, it was a gift to me (I forget the model number, but I got it Christmas of 2003 and at that time, it was $499 at Circuit City if I remember correctly).
