I have to change my review due to an error on my part. Initially when I ordered this system I was ordering was described as a Bose acoustimass 5 series II speaker system...I received the series III system and was a bit confused since it was in a series II box, I'm still confused. If you use all proprietary wiring; even to jump from your amp to the sub woofer you will get that "live", concert hall sound but it is still very dependent upon satellite speaker placement and reflection configuration to achieve this desired sound quality or effect. I am satisfied but still not completely overwhelmed. Naja
I read alot of reviews that put bose speakers in the class of over priced garbage. I suppose if you have thousands of dollars to spend on speakers that may be the case, but I unfortunatley don't. I have two Bose 301s paired with this acoustimass powered by a 5.1 sony reciever and it sounds amazing. The woofer puts out a really clean crisp sound, although its not room shaking......you should go for a powered sub if your looking for that, but none the less this is a great addition to my system. In the two days I have had it I have put it through the paces playing a variety of music very loudly and it has performed beautifuly!
I loved my Bose Accoustimass 5 Series II speakers many years ago when purchased new....but since the base module mysteriously went missing during one of my many moves, I've not been able to enjoy that full sound. Reunited again, and the sound is every bit as full as I ever remembered.

I have been playing with speakers for about 35yrs. There are so many manufacturers and expert guru's out there that have written "THE BOOK" on how to build the perfect system. Until I heard these,I thought I had some good speakers. I had a friend who had a machine shop and he always had the music on and a familiar song came on and he turned it up,I mean up until the bass was bouncing off my chest. The song I have heard a million times on my system just sounded way better ! He pointed to the little cubes and then the Acoustimass module,I looked at those things with a half smile and thought,"NO WAY,those little things? I bought a set and took them home. I got the same killer sound without changing anything except the speakers. Since then,I put an AM-5 in every room,including the recording studio. BOSE IS THE REAL GURU of speaker research. I would compare the AM-5 against any other in it's class and win the argument of what sounds better.Read full review
Having owned other Bose speakers, and the the original of this series, it is always amazing to hear such quality sound from such a small package. I am sold on Bose for life.
