I love my 10+1 system, I dont care what anyone says. I bought it at Best Buy grand opening in Edmonton so I got a smokin deal and it still works great (only thing i have ever lined up to purchase - only had 3 of them).

If you can snag anything Bose for a "smokin' deal", then you've done good. Not only because the stuff is admittedly pretty decent (well-designed, easy to use, small, aesthetically pleasing, good sound quality considering the size), but because the resale value from the first class marketing and big name recognition is extremely high. Sure, there are cheaper options with "better" sound reproduction on the market, but super high usability, popularity and aesthetics are at least as important as "subtle" sonic improvements for many many people. There's no reason to be ashamed of owning a Bose!
Getting back on topic...
The VideoWave System looks incredibly cool. I can see how appealing it would be to a ton of people. The price is somewhat staggering, however, and seeing how the LCD display isn't LED, isn't 3D-ready, doesn't have an ethernet connector, etc, it doesn't seem as future-proof as I would expect from a television well into the $5+ grand realm.
It will be an
easy way for some well-off folks to bring a decent sounding and great looking home theater system into any room without any cords and hassles.
