Ha, no not a grand... $1400 (its our dollar version remember) But I never said I was going to buy them ...

To be fair to Bose they are very conservative with RMS figures, and they use the Pink Noise generation for calculating, so 115w for Bose is probably more like 130 in other brands.

But $1400 isn't that much really. Just look at the cost of a decent 120 watt power amp...then add a mixer, cables speakers..It soon adds up to more than $1400. Thats Oz dollars, you know the Pacific Peso!!!
