Wave music system III

You cant go wrong with a Bose. Although I bought this one refurbished it seems to work GOOD and it sounds GOOD. I was a little hesitant because when I received it, the box had a hole in it despite the FRAGILE stickers all over it. I do think a little more bubble wrap inside the box would have been in order. However, the CD player works as well as the radio. Both sound awesome. The digital face also lights up well and the remote control works good as well. Its clean and blemish free. THANKS to the seller SAGE PLUS STORE for a GOOD product.

I’ve owned a Bose Wave Radio system for many years. Used to run three in different places in the house and one at work. Over time they break down, the CD player goes wonky. I had three of my old ones repaired and gave them to my kids, and have one left to repair. I’ve missed the Wave system so much that I bought this one, and I’m so glad I did. It works perfectly, and the remote is the big one rather than the little credit card size. There’s not a scratch or issue at all with the unit, and the rich Bose sound easily fills my office. The unit is intuitive and easy to use, and the platinum color looks nice in my neutral grey taupe beige home/office. My only problem is I can’t blue tooth to it as I need an adapter. I don’t know which one to buy that’s best for my unit. I contacted the seller but they gave me no recommendation, other than to tell me I need an adapter. It was nice they answered but I thought the seller could have been more helpful.

I thought I had already reviewed this purchase. My first attempt didn't publish, but I thought the second attempt had, well anyway ... I LOVE THIS MUSIC SYSTEM! I can't get over the incredible sound that comes out of a system of this size. On some of my CDs the sound is better than on my living room stereo system. This unit is placed in my bedroom and whether I'm playing the radio or a CD or MP3, I have absolutely no complaints regarding the sound. The "bottom" (bass line) is incredible!! I love the ease of turning the unit on or off (soft touch to the top), but I will probably purchase the Wave III premium backlit remote soon. Not because I dislike the "credit card-sized" remote that comes with the unit, but because if I misplace it - it's doubtful but it could happen - I could only use the radio if it was the last feature that I was playing before turning the unit off (and I couldn't change the radio station). You have to have a remote to switch between playing the radio, CDs, or any other audio/video auxilliary equipment connected to the unit. You can't change the radio stations, or move forward or backward in the CD's tracks, set either of the two alarms, change the factory settings for certain features, etc., without a remote control! I've had the music system for over a month and I consider it money very well spent. I've already raved enough about it that I convinced a relative to buy one. (He said he had intended to buy the system but wanted to get a review from another "audiophile" who's opinion he trusted.) I didn't have to purchase a FM antenna, and my AM stations sound better than they do via the tuner on my living room stereo system! If I have one complaint about this unit it is that when playing CDs you see the disc's elasped playing time for each track, but unfortunately as the disc is being read when first put into the unit, there's no total playing time for the entire compact disc, nor is there information regarding the total number of tracks on the disc. Here's hoping that the engineers/designers who will be working on the Bose Wave Music System IV (I don't doubt that that will be the next model in this line) will incorporate those features.

Just what I wanted. Great tone and good condition

The radio was defective and I am trying to return it and they were supposed to send me a pre paid shipping label but it isn't. They want me to pay around $50.00 to ship it back PLEASE HELP .

My wife has a ten year old earlier model which she loves. In the past 2 years the cd portion has become tempermental and the bass is now quite boomey, which bothers me a lot more than her. Would gladly pay $100 or so to be able to take it somewhere locally (LA) and get it back up to snuff. My main interest in System III however is mainly as an easy to set (and reset) dual alarm cd clock radio with battery backup. After 4 months of a Sony that was very ergonomically unfriendly, the alarm aspect went to heaven (well somewhere). There is a lot of low-end clock radio stuff out there without much of anything in the middle ground. If your main interest is in the sound from a device with a rather small footprint, this would certainly fit the bill. The good... Easy to use....Good sound...Being able to turn the unit on and off by just tapping the top instead of having to rely on the remote is a big improvement in the product and should have been implemented years ago. This was the one feature that finally pushed me over the top causing me to say, "Oh what the hell" and order the Bose, thus ending a rather time consuming painfull search for clock radios. The bad... Same as in previous versions, the remote! Small, delicate, very easy to lose/misplace. It was (and still is) the bane of the total package. I am surprised that Bose hasn't come up with at least some kind of a velcro arrangement to easily keep remote and unit in a symbiotic relationship. My recomendation would be to spring for the $40 back lighted III remote. It comes with a stand and is at least reasonably useable. Of course it goes without saying that Bose should have packaged it with the radio without upping the cost. The ugly... The cost of the product. It is outrageous...but you already know that. No surprises here. Bottom line - If you can handle the $$$, go for it. The unit on the whole, fits my needs. The price becomes somewhat more palatable if your main use is to fill a room with music. It does a nice job with that.

First off, kudos to the seller. My package arrived arrive a full week before it was originally estimated for, and the care put into the package was much appreciated. Product looked good (very minor wear), and the remote battery had juice. As to the stereo itself: I have hundreds of CDs, and that is my preferred method for consuming music. I currently had a Wave IV in my office, and it has been a workhorse for the last four years or so. Bose does not make Wave systems of any kind any more, and I wanted to get a backup, both for another room and in case anything happened to my original. This may be a Wave III, but I couldn't even tell that it was a generation behind. It sounds just as good - and maybe even better - than my Wave IV. Incredible full and rich sound that literally fills even a large room. Highly recommended. It may seem a bit costly, but I think it's worth every penny.

I have waited my entire adult life to purchase a Bose system and I am kicking myself for not getting sooner. The sound is outstanding and I couldn’t be happier. I love that I can move it room to room.

他の方が書いているように、音は素晴らしかったです。外見は小さくてチャチく頼りない感じですが、音の奥行き感が大型です。クラシックだけでなく、ポップスも問題ないように思います。ピアノの音の再現力が特に良いように感じられます。本国仕様でFMが聴けないのは残念ですが、その分の安さに対価は見合います。

Fick fel fjärrkontroll. Dåligt där.

Ich bin sehr froh, dass ich das Bose Wave Music System noch einmal bekommen habe. Das gleiche Gerät habe ich schon seit mehr als 20 Jahren in Gebrauch und war damit super zufrieden! Leider funktionierte das Geräte dann nach der langen Zeit nicht mehr ganz einwandfrei und das Vergnügen war deshalb ziemlich getrübt. Nun habe ich das gleiche Gerät noch einmal bekommen. Phantastisch! Hatte ich eigentlich nicht zu hoffen gewagt. Dass dem Gerät keine Betriebsanleitung beilag, kein Problem. Ich habe ja noch das von dem alten Music System. Traurig bin ich nicht darüber, dass mein neues Radio wahrscheinlich ein Ausstellungsstück war und deshalb keine Originalverpackung vorhanden war. Aber ich hätte doch wenigstens gern eine Originalrechnung - und - vielleicht so etwas wie eine "Garantie"?! Ansonsten: Alles Top! Das Gerät ist immer noch Superqualität! Vielen Dank auch für die prompte Lieferung!

Wave music systemが出て１０年以上たつけど、こんなチビのオールインワンのフルレンジスピーカーから、どうしてこんな素晴らしい音が出てくるのだろうか？３０帖位の部屋で大音量で鳴らしても、立派に聴けます。５００万円位の高額スピーカーで部屋とのマッチングが悪いと、BOSEの方が優れていることが分かる。私のような貧乏人でも買える安価さも立派。

MY PARTNER BORROWED A BOSE WAVE MUSIC SYSTEM AND THE SOUND WAS INCREDIBLE, SO FOR HER BIRTHDAY I THOUGHT ID GET HER A BOSE SOUND SYSTEM.
