Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion Home Theater New product from [REDACTED] (rhymes w/hose)

Don't you hate it when you mount a TV up on the wall with the wires nicely hidden, but they you still have big boxy speakers pissing off your wife? Well, no more!

Introducing the B*se VideoWave: 46" flat-panel HDTV with integrated "cinema quality" speakers and subwoofer.


In all seriousness, though, they're pretty damn smart and I'm sure this will be a big seller.

Depending on the price, these should actually sell very well. If you took the name off the product, offering better sound from a tv set (an issue that remains to be proven) without changing the form function drastically will find lots of useful applications in casual viewing areas. For example, this would work great in my bedroom, where surround sound isn't of paramount importance and putting up speakers around the room isn't a real option. But again, it all depends on the price.


edit/ Oh - I just saw that they are charging $5,400 for the set. No thanks. For that money, you could hire a company to install high quality in wall surround sound in any room with enough left over to buy an easy to use universal remote.

Looks like it requires a square room.

Better not show that to the wife

If they can get that price down to $3500 then it will sell like crazy as that would be about the price point of a 46" TV and a Bose system of some kind.

I guess it's just me that thinks either price is just plain insanity.

I guess you would need two if you want surround sound.

I think you would need more like 4 for reasonable surround sound

If wanted left and right surrounds you might need 3.

Doh, beat me to it
