Pros Love the great sound from compact speakers.
Cons Everything good canceled out by known bugs because Bose won't spend profit to fix it.

However, my first Lifestyle system 25 did not have a DVD player, so I wasn't aware of the issues surrounding their DVD technology. I traded in my 25 to get... Read full review »
