Hello all, time again to pick ya’lls brain. I have just received a Bose Lifestyle 12 series 1 system (1996 model) as a hand me down from Mother.
OK...I know that Bose is not at all anything spectacular.
Right now within my budget theater I have a Onkyo 801b 7.1 receiver. The fronts are good but the surrounds (Kenwood) and side (RCA) speakers at this point are very cheap and definitely not the greatest. So, I was thinking of cannibalizing the Bose system to replace the sides and surrounds in the theater room with the Bose cubes and put the RCA & Kenwoods with the lifestyle system and use it for maybe a computer or garage system. I don’t even know if the Bose speakers will hold up with an actual receiver.
I am not a Audiophile by any stretch and this is to keep my spending down to $0 and upgrade slightly. I know that will be a laugh to some.
Any thoughts or suggestions are welcome.
P.S. I already thought of ebaying the Bose and buying a set of Fluance speakers, but you know the minute I do that, Mumsy would visit and wonder what I did with her system....
