[QUOTE="desiibond, post: 1016023, member: 23023"] [b]Re: THX Certified sound systems and rate..contribute urself.[/b] Where did I say that Bose is the best. I said that I was spellbound by the quality of the setup. And I also said that I can get similar setup for much less price. @sarang, the demo that I took was a movie 5.1 channel movie in their private mini-theatre (dozen seater). But when someone asks me for suggestion, sorry, I wont' recommend Bose. @greenhorn yes, h/w specs are subject to change. And MX-5021's changed too but it still is far far superior than competition and still is a quality product. If you think that you can get a cerfitication on one lot of a product and make the next lots without athering to certification's standards, I am sorry, that won't work.

In Short, the chance of buying a bad product is far less for non-geek end-users if they look for certs like THX! [/QUOTE]
