You oughta try the a/d/s 320 i/s components, or at least the tweeters 
from the set.  The Bose cone tweeters (I can't believe they still use 
cone tweeters!  Only Rat Shack, Kenwood, and Pioneer and other cheep 
Japanese audio manufactures use them) are utter crap.  Just replacing 
them would help a lot.  As for the bass, extension and volume are one 
thing, but speed and articulation are what makes a sub work for me.  Bose 
can't do those things.  But hey, if you're satisfied with it, fine.  
That's what really counts.
