Wave® Music System III with Multi-CD Changer - Platinum White

Sitting in Symphony Hall quality, stereo sound. Loved for classic/PBS radio. Remote control is phenom. Can't wait to use the multi-CD function for Christmas season! 💚❤️

I have a home automation system that includes a whole house audio system that plays from a docked i-Pod. My Mother enjoys listening to music but has difficulty working the complicated network controls so I bought this unit for her because it seemed simple to operate and the reviews for sound quality were good. After using it today for the first time, I wished that gotten a couple of these units for myself and saved all that money putting in a home audio system. This unit has better sound quality because the music is from the CD instead of the MP3 player, and it was very easy to install and operate. Bose did provide software to update the Multi-CD changer (see another reviewer's comments regarding the older Multi-CD changer). The instructions were so clear that we had it up and running in less than 5 minutes. It's also compact enough that it could be moved easily from room to room if desired. This was a very good purchase.

I'm familiar with Bose, but not familiar with their current advertising campaigns. There was a time when they oversold themselves and left my family disappointed.Now, we know the product and we know how good it is. The Wave Music System III is not going to fill a Great Room, but we're not asking it to do that. Therefore, the way I titled this review.CDs and radio both give robust sound and the radio tunes easily, holding its stations. We'll see if the CD base holds up. (We have an older Bose radio whose changer did not last as long as I think it should have; on the other hand, the radio continues to go strong.)I don't mean to be meager in my praise of Bose, but I think it essential that potential buyers know what they are buying. In its class this is a superior product, pricey but worth the price.I would recommend this product to family and friends.

Zero. This is piece of junk! Nine months later it is not working right. I can not return it for a refund! I am stuck with a piece of junk that cost me $800.00! Crap! Pure Crap! After three phone calls, I reached a tech person at Bose who was very helpful. However, the Amazon order number was not in their system when I talked to the first person so my purchase didn't exist to Bose. I sent the multi-changer part of the system back. It cost me $19.00 dollars to ship it back and now I will probably have to wait 2-3 weeks for the repairs to be made and the shipping time until I have the system again. Other then the tech guy, the whole message from Amazon and Bose has been "tough luck." You decide how you would feel after spending $800.00 and having road blocks all the way. Also, I had no choice in the return process. I wanted my money back. Not possible. Neither Amazon or Bose would give me that option. My advice is to purchase your system locally and be very careful about reading the information about how long the guarantee covers these kinds of incidents. Even if you are not sure if the system is working correctly--take it back and get a refund in full and go some place else and purchase another brand.It came back and two weeks later it stopped working. Both the top and bottom units do NOT work. The CD changer on the bottom unit does NOT work and about two hours into use, you are stuck with a very expensive piece of JUNK. The sound is OK but not what Bose claims it to be. You will be very sorry after you buy this product. Remember, you are NOT paying for any quality but for all the expensive advertising that Bose does to sell this junk. If you think Bose can take millions of dollars of magazine ads out in major publications and not pass that expense on to the buyer--then go ahead buy it. The net is filled with other products that are 1/3 or less the cost and have better sound. ZERO!!!

I bought this for my 94 year old mother who wanted to listen to her old cds. She is over the moon pleased as am I. Many many years ago she and my father had a BOSE surround sound system with a 5 cd changer that was awesome. A few years ago the cd changer stopped working and we couldn’t find anyone to repair it. Needless to say my mother really missed having it. Well, now, Frank Sinatra, Johnny Mathis, Ottmar Liebert, and many, many more oldies are giving my mother immense pleasure once again.New high quality CD players are not manufactured any longer so I was ecstatic to find this discontinued (BRAND NEW) pristine display model Wave III system available on Amazon. BOSE never disappointed us in the past for quality products and sound quality.The seller was very meticulous in packing and shipping the unit in a timely way and it was worth every penny!!! I highly recommend them and this product.

After several attempts, I am unable to get the 4 disc changer to work. There was a note in this order from Nick and Leo, but no phone contact or email information. Please provide that so they can address my concerns and I will then give a good review

My first Bose. I am very pleased after my first month of use. Clearly a high-quality, substantial, well-made product. I was looking for something very compact and this is. Both radio and CD sound quality are the best I've heard from a desk-top device. Why only 4 stars? I'm surprised by a few design decisions. (a) There are no controls on the unit (except for on/off), even behind a door or on the back. One must have the small remote to use. (b) The remote seems low-end compared to the rest of the system. It has worked fine, but I'm concerned that I have to know where it is, that it has good batteries, and that it doesn't wear out in a few years. It seems like the unit will outlast the remote, which may not be true at all - it just feels that way. (c) The front-panel display also seems pretty low-end and low-res for 2013. These details wouldn't matter on a $200 system, but this isn't a $200 system.

I am not a TV person and I love the Bose radio and CD player. Thanks

If it stops working...I do have 1 yr warranty if anything goes wrong. Am I right??? ()That's what I was toldIt took me few hours to get it going...but I did it! Reading owner's guide was fun...very small text ! It was a very interesting job, especially to me who doesn't know much about technology. Now I have a nice silver CD player and it sounds great! Hopefully it'll stay that way for years to come. If anything goes wrong I have a 1 year warranty until year from now??? Am I right? That's what they told me at Bose Ltd. Richmond Hill...I just like to conformed that with You, please let me know. Thank you and have a great day!Richmond Hill Ontario)

Arrived well packaged, no surprises which is good as it was listed as used and rebuilt. Seems to work fine.

Excellent

I was VERY UPSET to find the 3 disk section totally not functional

Il y a beacoup de basse mais seulement 100 watts de puissance, ce qui est pauvre pour écouter les cds. La prise à l'arrière de l'appareil n'est vraiment pas pratique pour brancher les écouteurs; cela raccourcit le fil. il ya un compteur mais pas de durée du cd au début, donc on ne sait pas combien de temps il sera. Il dégage un peu d'ambiance, bien pour la radio mais je trouve que pour écouter un cd c'est un peu pauvre, pas si incroyable que l'on disait dans la pub. On peut tout de même en mettre 4, si vous n'êtes pas difficile sur la puissance et la qualité du son.
