I was waiting for my gf yesterday at the mall, so I visited the Bose factory store just to kill time.

I was entertained,...or maybe feel sorry for - people who walk out with a 3 grand HTIB. With 3K, they could have bought...say..a Denon 2805 and M60s, then some M22s for the surrounds and a sub. That would be a little more I think, but you do get something that is relatively kick butt!
