Product Description
The Bose Lifestyle V20 system changes the face of component home theater. It offers a versatile foundation for all your audio and video sources, including those with HDMI. Add your own Blu-ray DiscTM or HD-DVD player, and enjoy exhilarating surround sound for movies, music, sports and more. This system features compact Direct/Reflecting speaker arrays, each only 4 " high, and a horizontal center-channel speaker that complements flat-panel TVs. A powerful Acoustimass module reproduces emphatic low notes that add depth to your movies and music. The unique system design lets you hide more equipment. There's no need for a large, complex receiver and a multitude of remotes. All you see and interact with is an elegant display panel. A well-labeled media console simplifies your component connections and tucks neatly away. The entire system is controlled with an intuitive universal remote. So you receive synchronized audio and video at the press of a single source button. And what you see is as crisp as what you hear. The Lifestyle V20 system features automatic video upscaling so movies and sports always use the highest resolution capability of your displayup to 1080p over HDMI. Now think about the unique qualities of your room. The size, shape, textures and other elements affect the sound you hear. The ADAPTiQ system was developed to analyze your room and then adjust the Lifestyle system for a consistent, high-quality performance each time you listen. But the benefits don't end in your main room. Built-in Bose link technology can distribute the system's audio to other rooms. Add compatible Bose products, and enjoy your music almost anywhere, even outdoors.

 Worth the Wait June 28, 2008

We waited over ten years before finally taking the plunge with Bose and it was well worth the wait. The sound quality is superb and it does everything I need it to do. I test ran it with Saving Private Ryan and finally re-experienced the theater quality sound I couldn't get with our Klipsch or Sony systems. HOWEVER, it took me two weekends to figure out how to make all the connections (DirecTV, TIVO, DVD...) work like they are supposed to; if I had it to do over again I would pay the Geek Squad or somebody to set it up for me. But now that it is up and running I only regret that we waited so long.

First time buyer/user of Bose. We were looking for good quality sound and small size. The design is very good: visitors cannot tell where the sound comes from: speakers were easily installed and incorporated in our current living room. The sound is great for movies and very good for music. The more dynamic the range the better the sound. It does well with PCM 2.0, 5.1, the mp3, wav files and nice with mono recordings.
Upgrading video signal is good too. Standard cable looks better on 40" LCD TV. It does well with trhough HD signal (no loss/distortion). I have Blu-ray from PC hooked to it (no HDCP conflict here yet). Looks great!
Issues: 1. We had handshake issues with a motorola cable box. 2. We had to return first unit as it had color distortion (Bose customer service is good). 3. Infrared signal comes from display so the other devices need to face the display, otherwise use the IR sensor.
SummarY: It's a nice unit, provides enough power, quality and upgrading of audio and video signal in an elegant, discrete design. It can satisfy the average consumer.
Great replacement to a well aging Lifestyle 28 December 27, 2007

With all the new products on the market my 6 year old Lifestyle 28 Series I simply couldn't handle all the necessary inputs. We retired the LS 28 to the family room and added a new member to the Bose family, the Lifestyle V20. So far I'm impressed with it's ability to handle multiple inputs; DVD, DirecTV, AppleTV and Wii and all but the Wii are working from 1 single Bose remote, oh and it's controlling a Sharp front projector as well. I'll update in a few months with the durability, if it's anything like the 28 I'm sure it'll be around for many years to come.
