(More customer reviews)While out searching for a decent sound system for our home theater. We began to realize our limitations. 1st, there is no clear back wall for us to mount rear surround speakers. 2nd, there is no crawl space or attic to run cabling nor do we have carpet to hide unsightly wires.
These setbacks led us to the Bose 321 media center. I found this product basically by accident and was really impressed with the sound quality. We picked one up and set it up immediately.
The system has been pretty flawless, only thing I would change physically is the cable that connects the Sub unit to the media center could have been a bit longer to better suit the directions. It requires the unit to be 3 feet from the TV, but never took into consideration that someone might want it on the opposite side of the TV from the media center. If this was a standard optical cable or some other form of cable, it would have been no problem. This however is a propriatary cable that I have never seen before :shrugs:
I also have been having trouble programming my Tivo remote to work with this unit. It appears that BOSE has stuck to the same IR schematics throughout it's history in making audio equipment. Very few of their receivers use IR, as they have opted for the more versitile RF models. However, their standard remote code does not work with this unit. I have been unable to track down a working code for my Tivo thus far.
All in all I would definately reccomend this to anyone with space limitations as well as constructual problems that might limit the possibilities for your home theater system.

The Bose 3-2-1 GS II system offers simplicity, ease, and superb sound. Just two visible speaker arrays and a hideaway Acoustimass module deliver full sound without the wires and cabinetry inherent in traditional surround sound systems.
The system includes a progressive scan DVD/CD player with AM/FM tuner. A programmable universal remote control lets you manage all your entertainment devices.
The Gemstone speaker array employs the most powerful 3-2-1 speakers to date and provides a spaciousness to audio that enhances movies and music. The 3-2-1 system is equipped with Videostage 5 decoding circuitry to improve audio-classic movies and TV sound almost like surround sound.
As with all Bose equipment, minimal space requirements prevail. The lack of center and rear speakers in the system save space without sacrificing quality. And the new speakers are 50% smaller than previous models-big things from a small package, indeed.
