To all: I also am a high end retailer, carrying the full lines of B&W, NHT, Krell, B&K, Lexicon, Martin Logan etc.. Granted that there's no possible way that a Bose Lifestyle system can match up against a Nautilus 801, Full Power Balance 600C, and Sony SACD player combo, I dare have any of you find a system that sounds pretty damn good and that you can fit everything in a nice TINY package!! Yes, we here love the big things that kick ass.. but there are many people out there that would luv friendly, easy to maintain equipment that doesn't take up the entire family room and costs $1000's in electricity bills!!!! For the person that would like ease of use and has space limitations, you can't find another company out there that has speakers of that size and it's performance. I personally have a lifestyle 30 system in my bedroom mounted on the walls to integrate with my 50" Pioneer PD505HD plasma set. A nice theater that weighs less than 150lbs (including the TV!!)
