I saw the new sound bar they have and it sounds amazing. I don't care for their mobile audio but I love their home audio. Their new TV is also pretty badass

I have a Bose audio system in by living room and garage, love it. I have the V-Class 5 speaker system in the living room and upstairs along with the Soundbar system in the garage. They are pricey but well worth the money IMO. It's amazing the sound thatcomes out of that thing, better than a movie theater. Best thing about the Bose systems are they do not take up a lot of space.

The only Bose product I've been disappointed in is their headphones.

 

A friend of mine has some old Bose box speakers for their tv and it sounds incredible.

This is what I want to get for my living room. I have a Sony sound bar system in my bedroom and it is enough for a small room.

I don't have a problem with Bose it sounds good but in my opinion your paying for a name more than anything. I've got a Polk audio theater and it's awesome!!

agreed. bose is kind of like a generic high end speaker name that everyone knows. i have a combination of Onkyo Polk and Sony for my surround sound it sounds decent

I bought the Acoustimass 5 system back in 1990. It was a stereo system, 2 speakers, one sub. Amazing sound out of speakers that you had to look for in the room. Connected to a Harmon Kardon PM665 and a Harmon Kardon cd unit was the best sounding setup I ever had, even to this day.

I'd also have to agree with this, the stuff does sound great but you are still paying a lot for the name.

I also can't see a sound bar being better than a 5.1 setup unless you just really can't run the cords well. I'd be more inclined to go with something like this at 1/2 the price if I were really going to pay that kind of money.

Regardless it's what you want and I'm sure it will sound pretty freaking amazing. Let us know if you get it.

I have to save up. The Yamaha bar doesn't look bad. I used to have a powerful 5.1 system from them, but I would like a receiver

the bose in the GMT800's is dissapointing but the home theater equipment is immpressive

 

 

I like the Bose system in the 900's. If just the dashboard wouldn't vibrate so badly...lol.

 

But actually I don't know how good sound is supposed to sound good.

What I mean is I have no idea if a sound system is good or not just by listening to it.

I hear a lot of good things about Bose systems though.

That's all I can say.

 

so long

      Fluid Change Questions

      By Chuck FB · Posted

      There would be one way of determining the quality of the factory oil although probably more than a typical oil lab test, and that would be to draw out some oil from a new truck and send a sample to a lab that could do a more elaborate test of the oil. The issue with too little oil in the diff may not be the lack of lubrication of the diff bearings and gears themselves ( although a lack of oil volume for cooling ) but the wheel bearings because at some point the oil would be too low to properly get onto the spinning axle or fed along the axle tube. That was the claim by the local dealer from a couple of trucks in recent years that had the wheel bearings fail and they figured from lack of sufficient oil due to a severe underfilled diff and some of the bearing material made its way to the diff and it got damaged as well so the axle housings were just replaced on warranty. But your right that if the diff is over filled by whatever margin that it causes more churning of the oil than is desirable and that is no good either and can cause a pinion seal to leak. Also old oil I believe can tend to loose some of its properties like antifoaming and another good reason to change the diff oil every so often.

      I would be surprised if the diff's were not filled (with the cheapest gear lube) at the axle factory before being shipped to GM.  If you ever watched them building trucks they install the axles and all suspension parts with the frame upside down and then turn it over before its time to install the engine.     Too much gear lube in a axle can be worse than not enough especially with a lower quality GL where is get whipped up with entrained air (foam)  weakening its ability to lubricate.

      This is the 6.6 gasser section of the forum, you should either delete or modify your previous post as it is misleading for anyone looking for factual information on their 6.6 gas engine.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      Well....I've done my first intake gasket. Probably wrong, but...we'll see?   Ultra black on the china walls and 1/4" up onto the sides of the intake gaskets. Permatex High Tack (couldn't find Gaskachinch) on the head side of the intake gasket. I read wrong and it says you're supposed to put it on the mating surface of the head, not the gasket. Hoping it's like a PB&J sandwich where it doesn't matter what side the PB goes on so long as there's jelly. That crap is messy/sticky and I got a dab or two on the intake port openings, tried to wipe it off. Hopefully it won't be a big deal and will only aid in sealing.   Per instructions I left the intake (top side) of the gasket dry except for a light smear of RTV around the coolant ports. Wiggling the intake in there was a bear but I had help to free me of surrounding wiring/stuff but I was basically able to set it straight down lined up with the bolt holes.   I did not think to wait until the RTV skinned over but there probably was 5-10 minutes while it sat before installing the intake.   Bolts finger tight first. Then, followed the Chilton's manual pattern to snug them to 15 lb-ft.   Waited a little over an hour, and then did the final torque in sequence again to 35 lb-ft.   Yesterday I replaced the fuel pressure regulator and got my new "nut and bolt kit" (fuel lines) installed. Damn GM used security torx on the spider, which I don't have, so I got scammed at the local HW store for an off-brand security Torx bit set.   The new driver's door mirror arrived yesterday, so, there's a chance this thing could be running and road legal tomorrow? I don't want to get my hopes up.   This will be my first time stabbing a distributor, too. Although, lucky me, someone else marked the old distributor for removal previously, I did see that. (Someone's been here before!!). Engine is still at TDC so it *should* be just a matter of transferring the mark to the new dizzy and rotating it into place.
