I have owned Bose electronics and have always been very satisfied. What I did not realize when I purchased this system was the difficulty in integrating it with additional elements throughout the rest of my house. Yes, it could be done, but at a very HIGH price. For example, just adding some additional ambiant sound to my adjoining kitchen area to where the system would be installed was going to run an additional $1,000.00 in equipment plus installation. And that was just the beginning. Sadly, this has sent me looking for alternatives and most likely picking various components from several name brands to do the job that I was hoping an "all in one" system would accomplish.

Thanks and again, I love Bose products, but this one just isn't going to work out this time around.
