So I take it you're not buying a Bose system, Mike?
Best money I ever wasted

...especially when I get that terrific coverage that
no conventional PA system provides.
Hype?
Nah, I don't think so....no more hype than any other company that wants to sell their products.
Isn't it only
hype when the product comes up short of the company claims?
You know...something like the Audya.
I can understand your skepticism, and I too felt the same way about the Bose at one time, but once I played my keyboard through two of these systems in stereo, the price really didn't matter much any more...and, as I said earlier...a great sound system need only be purchased
once, and a system of this quality will last many many years.
My Yamaha MS60S speakers cost quite a bit back in the day, but I've got nearly 20 years service out of them
without one problem and they still sound as good as the day I got them.
I like to say I
invest in equipment, rather than just
buy it....I believe the Bose was an excellent investment.
