With the exception of a few CD's skipping, the system has been working fine and is great for what it was designed for; a low budget compact home theater system. Paid $899. However, I called Bose technical support anyway and requested the system software

QuickTake:

Pros: Compact Design
Cons: No Component Outputs; Wish it was a Progressive Scan player

I am really enjoying the performance of the 3 2 1. It was easy to set up and sounds great. My 7 year old can use it without any hlep. Great system and it was on sale for $899 when I bought it.

QuickTake:

Pros: Great sound and great alternative to a 5 speaker system.
Cons: none so far

Don't believe the people who complain about the volume and quality of sound. They have set up their systems wrong. Done right, this thing sounds nothing short of incredible, rich and satisfying. But buy it for a small room. Mine is for the bedroom. W

QuickTake:

Pros: Incredibly Rich Sound, Ease of set-up and use
Cons: Didn't come with a hottie in a Nurse's uniform to set it up

I saw this product at the Bose store, and thought it would be an excellent system based on the Bose name. I set up the system, and I was able to get the CD and radio to work. However, for $899.00, I felt the sound was extremely poor. (It sounded great i
