I have had Bose speakers throughout my house for years and these were originally on my old house. When I built a new house I moved these over making sure I ran all the wires for them during construction, that was over five years ago. These speakers are over ten years old, that's 10!!! They still sound awesome and just a few weeks ago a neighbor was over and he commented on how " great " they sounded. Over the years I've had many people ask and comment on how great they sound. I have not played these lightly either, they have been played quite loud just about every time they have been used and they really sound great. I have noticed that they sound really good at a distance under a patio or awning. I thought about looking into newer speakers when I moved these thinking newer technology might have introduced better sounding speakers but why try to fix what isn't broken? These aren't the cheapest but I doubt cheaper in price, value and construction would sound as good as these this far down the road.
