bose ? i came here for help what to get ...everyone says bose is crap?

I recently posted a question what bose cinema theatre set up i should get as i have had the same sony eqipment for 5 years now ..........i have dreamed of what bose equipment to get for my hd screen,now i feel confused again as what to get as everyone warned me not to get bose as its crap..all my research on bose wasted in recent months...sob...sob
ok so what is the best surround sound kit for me ??
i keep been told now from many that Klipsch is the best brand for sound ...is this true ? ?

Glad to hear the almost universal ... to be positive shall we say ... "indifference" to Bose by knowledgeable audiophiles got through. To be a bit fair though I believe the general opinion is not so much Bose is crap as that you can get much better performance for the money.

There are no "best" (or worst) brands for speakers ... they are all different and each has a place. There are literally hundreds of possible options, so you have to give more info. re your budget, purpose, preferences, etc. before anyone can provide useful input.

Klipsch make some good speakers but no manufacturer makes the best in all categories.

Even after focussing your needs a bit ("surround sound kit" isn't nearly enough) you will have to listen to the speakers since ONLY you can decide. Yes, use opinion and reviews to focus on a few possibilities, but it would not be a good idea to expect someone else to tell you what you need.

To give you a place to start consider the listing of recommended surround sound systems at various price levels and edit your question to focus it a bit. A receiver to drive them is a second concern since there are not nearly the differences as there are in speakers.

EDIT

To the "helpful" person who suggests people who don't like Bose can't afford them: I can only speak for myself, but not true (My Totem, Snell and Klipsch speakers might give you a clue). I don't like Bose because they prey on the gullible, use litigation to get their way, make mediocre equipment and charge an outrageous price for it. The manager of a Best Buy told me Bose spend over 40% of revenue on advertizing (including setting up "doctored" demos in stores). Furthermore you won't find a legitimate professional anywhere who will recommend Bose.

One of the problems with a site such as this is that almost everyone recommends what they own. I don't always succeed, but I try to provide advice based on facts that a reader can use to make their own decision.

Any response that simply recommends something without a rationale or credible third party support should be taken with a grain of salt.
