Wave music + Soundlink Upgrade Kit
|
| Review Date: December 14, 2009 |
| Reviewer: Carlos A. Antollini, |
I got my Wave system just a couple of months ago; it worth a lot to me, the sound is Amazing for the size of the device. The sound is great in all the environments, no matter the size of the room and the sound level.
I got my unit before the SoundLink device came out, so I made my own research and I got my "SoundLink upgrade kit" directly from Bose. It requires a simple upgrade via a CD provided on the package, then I got my computers (my MAC and my PC) playing iTunes and all kind of internet radios through out my wave system.
I don't know why the "SoundLink Upgrade kit" cannot be obtained through other retailers than Bose. Unfortunately it cannot be found on the BOSE site which makes that you must drive to some of the BOSE stores to get it, but don't worry, it worth.
Note: I didn't try to get it via the phone so you can try.

Works like a dream; NOT overpriced.

It annoys me to read reviews here and elsewhere on the internet that describe the Bose Wave Soundlink system as "overpriced." Compared to what??
I have had my system for six months, and have been highly satisfied. I will admit that not having any control over the treble and bass was hard to digest in the beginning, but most everything in my Windows Media Player collection sounds great on the system. Honestly, if it doesn't sound great on the Wave system, it just wasn't sound mixed properly in the recording studio, or the MP3 itself is low quality.
It's hard for me to take the one reviewer seriously who referred to crackles and pops in the sound. Obviously, something in his office is emitting a frequency that is interfering with the Bose system. I have NEVER heard a crackle or pop while operating this sytem.
Another aspect that has been criticized is the small, thin remote. I have zero complaints about it. Perhaps people have nostalgia for clunky, oversized remotes. All the buttons work just fine, and I have never had any problems using the remote.
Don't believe the naysayers- I give the Bose Wave Soundlink an enthusiastic five stars. |
Very good sound, very very easy installation

| The sound of systmen is incredible. The system is relatively small but the sound is amazing, you won't believe it. The installation is also very easy. Just plug in the USB connection into computer and play i-tunes, web radio or any other music. It just works. You can even controll your i tunes via the bose-remote on your computer. Just buy it, you won't regret it. |
Amazing

| Amazing Product. Yes it is expensive but for your money you get a compact, well built system with flawless sound that can fill any room in your house. No buttons to mess with, just use the remote. The remote is small and easily misplaced, but they are inexpensive if you need to order extras. The soundlink unit works great. Put the adapter in a USB slot on your computer and it does all the work. The reception from the soundlink is wonderful. I cannot tell the differenc in quality between the soundlink and a CD. |
Get ready to declutter your desk for great sound

This is my first Bose system and I wasn't expecting much except one unit to replace my Panasonic stereo and Logitech computer speakers. After reading a few negative reviews about interference and the price, I bought one anyway to see what the fuss was about.
Well, I'm happy to report that I now have a fabulous wireless sound system that works like a charm. Setting up took less than 10 minutes: USB key into my Vaio computer, connect adapter to main unit and plug everything in and voila, internet radio, iTunes, CD, AM/FM. I've had it for two days and have been enjoying high quality sound especially those in the bass range. I had no interference issues at all. No clicking, cracking or static noises and I live in a condominium with neighbours using all kinds of wireless stuff. There is also an AUX In connector for TVs and projectors. And what's more, my desk and audio/visual shelving are no longer cluttered with wires, cables and speakers. My only complaint is the remote which could be bigger with larger buttons.
Sure, it's pricey, but I consider it a good investment. If I upgrade in the future, it'll be used as a clock/radio or at work in my school library. |
