Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Acoustimass 3 Series IV speaker system - BlackCustomer Review: Great replacement for those tiny (and tinny) speakers in your LCD TV Summary: 5 Stars
I bought these speakers to replace my decades-old bookshelf speakers with something much, much smaller and easier to hide in a small family room. Then, I plugged in my new Samsung LCD TV into my old audio receiver so I could output the TV's sound through my stereo system. Call it my cheap "home theater" setup. The Samsung TV looks fantastic, but the sound played through the TV's built-in speakers is abysmal -- but I don't care! I just power-on two devices -- my TV and my stereo receiver -- to get both great sound AND great audio using my home stereo receiver and these Bose speakers.
The two, small, Bose Accoustimass speakers sit atop my entertainment armoire that houses my stereo and TV. In order to improve the sound, I cut and painted two small, wooden wedges so the speakers atop my armoire are pointed slightly downward, towards the leather couch where we sit to watch TV.
The woofer sits beside the armoire. The sound is good, not amazing, but okay for my set-up.
I liked that the audio cables were very long and easy to install into these speakers. Just press a button at the back of the speaker to insert the bare wires of the audio cable into the speaker. Also, the audio cables are very clearly labeled red and black, so it's foolproof to ensure you've got the right polarity.
Conclusion: These aren't a 5-star product because they deliever the best sound possible from home speakers. No, they are a 5-star product because they deliver very good sound in a very small form factor, and at a very affordable price.
Description of Acoustimass 3 Series IV speaker system - Black2 New Ultra-Compact Satellite Speakers for Left and Right Stereo Channels / Acoustimass Bass Module / Black The Acoustimass 3 speaker system from Bose delivers surprisingly rich performance while practically disappearing into your décor. The system, the company's smallest and most affordable to date, produces lifelike sound from your stereo components (DVD player, CD player, VCR, DVR, MP3 player, etc.) and, when connected to your surround sound receiver, it's also an appropriate choice for use as a left/right rear-channel home theater array. The speakers' compact size makes them a great choice for smaller rooms. Two single-cube speakers standing just 3 inches high are elegantly designed to blend with virtually any furnishings. Patented Acoustimass speaker technology delivers the ear-pleasing low tones of a bassoon or the deep, dramatic effects of movies. Best of all, you can easily stash the Acoustimass module behind furniture or in a corner, and the system's lifelike sound will appear to flow from the tiny cubes. Hookup couldn't be simpler: route left/right speaker wires (supplied) from your integrated amplifier or surround receiver to the back of the Acoustimass module (essentially a passive subwoofer), then run two more lengths between the Acoustimass module's left/right speaker outputs to the 2 cube speakers. All three units use convenient clip-type speaker terminals. When you hear the Acoustimass 3 Series IV system, you'll be surprised that such a huge sound can come from such small speakers. These Virtually Invisible speakers are the definitive answer to the question of how to combine spacious sound with space-saving design. It's all the result of Bose's years of intense research and testing. The tiny cube speakers can be wall-mounted or displayed on speaker stands using the optional Bose UFS-20 universal floor stands, UTS-20 universal table stand, or UB-20 wall/ceiling bracket. Now or in the future, you can turn your Acoustimass stereo speakers into a home theater set by simply adding the compatible Bose VCS-10 center-channel speaker. For full 5-speaker surround sound, add the VCS-30 center/surround speaker package. The system's four 20-foot lengths of speaker wire should accommodate most living rooms. For longer cable runs, however, Bose recommends using 2-conductor, 18-gauge wire (30 feet), 16-gauge wire (45 feet), or 14-gauge wire (70 feet), for a hookup that maintains a maximum frequency-response deviation of +/- 0.5 dB. (Cable thickness increases as gauge decreases.) What's in the Box Two cube speakers, 1 powered Acoustimass module, 4 lengths of speaker wire (20 feet each), 4 adhesive rubber feet, and a user's manual with warranty/registration information
