Current Events > I bought a BOSE soundbar and I've never been so disappointed in my life.

(+) Yeah! (+)

It's a piece of shit. I wasn't expecting much for $200 but my Polk Magnifi Mini is leagues better than this piece of shit. I literally have a $40 Insignia that's almost just as good.

I'm severely limited on space since I need to fit it on this entertainment center and preferably either not have an onboard interface OR have them not on the top so I can fasten the soundbar to the bottom of the middle shelf.

From now on I'll know to buy other sound equipment.

The fact you bought a soundbar to that setup is laughable.

Damn you got the original Nintendo and a Gamecast. Real gamer

I don't have space for an amp and speakers unfortunately. That wall's completely taken up by other things. I just wanted something better than the PVM speaker and crappy Insignia I was using. I really just want something with good stereo separation that fits my space limitations.

But I guess I should knock down a couple walls and redo my whole set-up because it'll make you happy*

*jk you'll never be happy :(

Yes, putting a stereo system in for a game system that only came in Mono will solve ALL of your problems.

Cant tell if serious. Dude has a Sega Neptune hooked up to a boob tube

I don't care about your soundbar, I just came to congratulate you on this retro setup. This is ace.

As others have said though, gotta laugh at trying to get optimal surround sound for an 8-bit mono system.

You don't seem particularly smart.

The Genesis, Saturn, PS2/PS1, Dreamcast, Wii, and SNES are all at least stereo... The only console that isn't is the NES.

Except mine is because it's been modded.

Any reason that you can't return it and get something else?

yeah I would steer clear of bose as a general rule

Perhaps because it wasn't made for old systems?

Very cool setup! That's how you do it :)

When I was young I though Bose was something special until I actually got into audio and learned they are over priced junk.

Get Paradigm soundbar but on something from this decade.

Why do I feel like that TV has a better picture than most 4k tvs today?

You know TC is serious when you have an Action Replay Plus for Saturn imports.

You know it!

Thats one of those WWE monitors they use at the announce table.
