Bose doesn't just suck at bass, it sucks at everything. Their frequency response, which they refuse to publish is 46Hz-200Hz for the Acoustimass module and 280Hz-13.3Khz (@+-10.5db) for the cubes. To give you a comparison, I have a pair of $300 bookshelf speakers that cover 45Hz-22Khz @+-3db. Qualitatively, they sound more natural with a much bigger sound stage. A real subwoofer goes well below 20Hz, some even as low as 13Hz. So the Bose doesn't go as low, nor does it go as high, and their is a gap between 200Hz and 280Hz not covered by either the Acoustimass or the cubes. Hence why people say "No highs, midrange or lows, it must be a Bose." They are crap.
If you like it, great. But there IS a reason people pan Bose. If you can't hear the difference, good for you. But most of us can, and a big difference it is.
Of course, when you go close to the bassreflex port there is loud bass. By the way Bose calls it Bassmodul not Subwoofer, cause it can't produce sub bass.
Couldn’t have said it better! The bass module sounds good within the 60hz anything below that is cut off or it’ll roll off slightly below 60hz. I have bose in my car and the 10 inch sub is pure crap sub bass is non existent literally.
Guys you know this is a joke right... I don't even use them, they're only there to demo songs to people and play music while cleaning up... I normally use either my AKG K702's or when I'm in the studio Yamaha NS10's, and I never bought the system I inherited it.
Let me tell you i use to won a bose spekaer setup.I had the bose acoustomass 10 speaker system.And while it was a nice a enjoyable setup.I left bose and went with a klipsch setup.I now own a pair of klipsch RF-7 II with 10 inch driver's 2 of then in both tower's.and a 8 and ahalf in hord loaded driver.I will never in my life go back to a bose home theater system .I dont have bose .I just feel there over priced and there not the end all be all.And klipsch i feel is the better bang for the buck.That beign said if you want to here real BASS look up a subwoofer company that has been makeing subs for 20 year's or more.and are known for makeing the BEST HOME THEATER SUB ON THE MARKET.there called SVS SOUND.They make a subwoofer that is called the SVS PB13-ULTRA. Its has 1,000 watts with a 3,600 watts peak.Makes any bose subwoofer a little ass bitch.to what svs sub's can do.So yeah before you talk crap.jUST DO YOUR RESEARCH FIRST.Yes you have every right to bring your own thought but i will be far and tell you that this video suck's and the bass that was on this video was little to zero bass.and if you post shit like this then people are just going to lol at you and you crap setup.Sorry but hey it's the truth.
LOL, you call that bass? Surely you haven´t even heard names like: Velodyne , Revel, Martin Logan and Paradigm. Your bass module (Bose can´t even call it a SUBWOOFER) probably have 2 x 5,1/2" driver like most of their bass module. How much bass can those tiny driver deliver?
I also really do not like Bose, because they use distortion to get louder sound, are their way to overpriced I would rather pay for JBL/Harmon Kardon or Sennheiser.
when i was 12 i had a active bose subwoofer 8inch bandpass box its was mad in 1993 fond it in a triftshop for 17euro it was for me the best sub i ever had (lg 5inch was shit) when i was 13 i made a 2x15inch speaker and that was pure creap but it was nice for me i made that when i was 16 i made a 5.2 surround system but sold the back speakers (look at my profile pic) niw i made a few weeks ago a 15inch subwoofer
Okay bass heavy music and you’ll clearly hear the system’s limits 😂 no low end bass and a huge and noticeable gap between the bass module and little speakers… I still have my bose 3.2.1 it’s a fair system not worth what I had paid for it though.
Apparently you ...and it's a pity......You have been duped. Bose had some really cool stuff in the 70's..... But......Their sound out put is EXTREMELY EXAGGERATED .... Marketing CEO blown over the top ! Again they make quality products if you like to empty your wallet on things you can't hear ! that don't exist except in a sound lab !!! WAY OVER PRICE...and hundreds speakers perform as well..... for much less !
I love ponies but I seriously hate Bose, I mean come on, nothing but a 10$ driver in a nice cabinet, that allows for deeper tones but you're really paying way more than you're getting and you can go out and make your own system by picking out a driver and cabinet and you'll be surprised, it will cost way less and put out way more bang for your buck, brony for life /)
I'm sorry but they do suck but then again no one blames you for falling for there gimmicks and not investing in a real pair of speakers but they are expensive.
BOSE stands for
Buy
Other
Sound
Equipment
Wow I'll have to use that one
Klipsch has a motto it's called stop by shitty audio.BOSE is one of those company's.
no shit sherlock!

+MrChevypower Jeez... 46 Hz ''subwoofer''...That means that my old Sony HTIB sounds way better than any bose surround sound. Awesome.
JOHN JH Logitech outperforms Bose lol
for $300 you get a Bluetooth speaker For $3,000 you get a crap home theater

its not a subwoofer
they call it bass module.
cause it s not creating SUB
404 mids not found
That sub puts out less bass than the Home made subwoofer I made out of a polystyrene fish box and some wire from work
If a sub doesnt go below 40hz its not called a sub no more
No lows no life
you say that but all of your logitech systems peak at 55hz or something lmao. but yeah bose is shit

Probably just a woofer made from wafer paper and slapped a sticker that says Bose made in China
+Tejon N.L. Amen

They don't suck I agree, but you can get much better for the same price

It's because they do no highs or low or mid they may vibrate but they sure aren't crisp
Bose surround sound...okay Harman/Kardon will make your house rumble or even cause glass to flex if there enough bass
Bose sucks at everything, not just bass!
how much did your mom pay for the system?
No offense realistic Mach 1 real walnut cabinets rich bass liquid oiled voice coil ribbed speakers best I’ve heard not knocking Bose just oppinion
Sounds terrible. I will stay with my Dayton UM18s that hit flat to 12 hz. And yes they, hit that low, I use REW.
I will also stick with my Audience 212 mains.
Bose, HA HA, what a joke.
They sound terrible. Bad song too.
Bose suck at mid range not bass!
That sounds awful.
Apparently you ...and it's a pity......You have been duped.
Bose had some really cool stuff in the 70's.....
But......Their sound out put is EXTREMELY EXAGGERATED ....
Marketing CEO blown over the top !
