Anybody know anything about Boston Acoustics VRi595? A buddy of mine just bought 5 of them to be mounted in the ceiling along with a Denon 3805 receiver and a DefTech Supercube subwoofer. He didn't do a lot of homework - he just walked into the local high end audio store and asked the salesman for advice, liked the sound, his wife liked that they are all in ceiling and take up no space so he bought them. He doesn't have them hooked up yet, but as we talked about our systems I was trying to decide if I should be envious and have been unable to find any info (other than the specs at their website) one way or the other.

Don't lose any sleep over it! Nothing wrong with the Boston's and there is nothing wrong with what you have. I do however hate to hear that he just walked in and bought it. I see a little buyers remorse in someones future.

Thanks. By the way I replied to your PM and I used your fool quote today.

I doubt it. Unless he comes to listen to my system and it is clearly better (likely not) because I doubt he'll have much exposure to other systems so it will just be "great!" - and that's fine for most people.
