The advent of high-end, affordable home theater entertainment is at your fingertips with the Bose 3-2-1 GS Series III DVD Home Theater System. It features an integrated A/V receiver/multi-format progressive scan DVD player, Gemstone speaker arrays with TrueSpace digital processing, Acoustimass bass module, and Videostage 5 Audio Decoding Circuitry. In addition, it features coaxial/optical digital audio connectivity, active electronic equalization, and an HDMI output. Your current DVD library will look and sound better than ever before, because this system offers backward-compatible multi-format DVD playback, capable of upconverting your DVDs to a full 1080p high-definition experience.
The 3-2-1 GS III combines superb functionality with an impressive 24-bit digital media center that utilizes an advanced DSP technology to create independent sound fields that envelop you in an unmatched 5.1-channel Dolby Digital surround-sound experience.
Moreover, multi-room expansion is possible with an optional Bose Link adapter. This powerful option enables distribution of your favorite audio selections to up to 14 additional areas throughout your home, with independent volume control for each area. The 3-2-1 GS III also includes a built-in AM/FM tuner, full-function remote control, and all cabling for system connectivity.
- Videostage 5 Decoding Circuitry
- With this proprietary Bose technology, you can enjoy five-channel surround sound from everything you play, including older TV programs and VHS tapes originally recorded in mono.
- TrueSpace Digital Processing Circuitry
- Bose technology that delivers a spacious, multi-channel sound experience with strong center imaging from just two visible speakers and a hideaway Acoustimass module.
- Gemstone Speaker Arrays
- With a very small footprint, the two Gemstone speakers are capable of delivering breathtaking headroom, with an outstanding audio signal-to-noise. Its unique configuration eliminates the need to install multiple speakers in your home theater set-up, by combining TrueSpace digital processing and acoustical geometry. They are designed to work with home theater systems to create a larger, fuller multi-channel listening area without distorting the sound.
- Acoustimass Module
- The module delivers the clarity of pure low-frequency reproduction down to the lowest frequencies, even at the loudest levels.
- High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) w/1080p Upconversion
- If you're looking to pump HD video into your HDTV plasma or LCD display, this system will do the job. It features an HDMI output, capable of upconverting standard video signals to 1080p HD resolution. This technology enables the Bose 3-2-1 GS III to carry high-definition video information through a single cable and achieving the highest quality picture available.
- Bose Link
- An optional Bose Link (model AL8) allows other Bose speakers and systems to seamlessly connect to a Lifestyle system. So your system becomes the center of a whole-home solution that lets you enjoy sound throughout your home, wherever sound is important.
- Progressive Scan
- It features progressive scan playback, capable of scanning an entire video frame at once; scan-lines commonly associated with interlaced video are drastically reduced. The result is a spectacularly clear image with no motion artifacts (stair-stepping), and details so sharp they seem as if they're etched onto the screen.
- Multi-Format Playback Capability
- It offers a full-range of playback capabilities for enjoying movies, music and images. It can playback DVD-Audio/Video, DVD-R/W, DVD+R/W, CD, CD-R/RW, VCD, MP3.
- 5.1-Channel Digital Decoding
- Improved surround sound realism from 5.1-encoded DVDs, DBS or HDTV. It has built-in processors to handle the multi-channel decoders for Dolby Digital surround-sound, capable of advanced 24-bit processing with an outstanding sampling frequency range.
- Active Electronic Equalization
- Balances output of all frequencies to provide natural tonal balance and clarity throughout the audio spectrum.
- Built-In AM/FM
- Enjoy your favorite radio broadcasts with surround sound processing, with the built-in AM/FM wide-band tuner.
- Magnetically Shielded
- The speakers magnetically shielded to prevent picture interference when placed near your TV or display.
- Parental Control
- For parents who want full control of media content played back through player, the unit's menu features a parental control and rating system (1-8) adjustment.
- Full-Feature Remote Control
- Included with this package is a full-feature remote control capable of executing every command on the system.

Comments about Bose 3-2-1 GS Series III DVD Home Entertainment System (Graphite):
It's an ok system. I bought it for the small design and clean setup. Sound quality was not the main priority for me as I have other stereo speakers and a dedicated sub. I needed an all-in-one entertainment system for movies that wasn't bulky but still sounded ok. Sound quality is average as far as dynamics. Bass is better than older acoustimass systems and is deep but midrange and highs could be better. I still have no idea why Bose does not use dedicated tweeters. The system is surprisingly loud for something so small. I can crank the volume and there is no distortion and it easily fills a nice size living room with sound. Volume is not an issue as this system will deliver. I would actually recommend this for a mid-size living room or a bedroom or a room without tall ceilings as the sound might get lost in a really big room. Build quality is average. The entertainment unit looked a little cheap to me. Older Bose systems used to use brushed aluminum panels. This unit is made of plastic. It still feels substantial but for the price, I expected more considering average AV receivers are made from metal today. I bought this for movies and the surround sound simulation effect does work with newer movies or older movies like Star Wars. I wasn't really impressed with the sound reproduction from older mono shows which were transferred to DVD. If you plan on using it for music exclusively, skip it and go with a regular stereo setup with a sub. Home theater systems cannot play stereo music properly and likewise stereo speakers cannot recreate theater sound without a 5.1 setup. I wish there were more inputs on the entertainment unit, An extra HDMI would be nice as well as another optical input. The remote is excellent though, it fits well in your hands, it is made very well, and it is easy to use. Adjusting the entertainment unit settings is a pain because you have to adjust bass, treble, and other dynamics via your TV screen. Bass and treble controls should be on the front panel on all systems as those are what you will be changing the most. Also for a unit this size, I wish Bose included a night-time feature that automatically adjusted the dynamics for low-volume listening. Onkyo has it, I don't know why Bose doesn't do it. With this system, you have to really turn the volume up to get the effect, listening to it at a lower volume is useless. I like this system because it fits my needs. If I could only buy one system for my music and movies, I would skip this and probably go with something from NHT or Klipsch, or any other big name brand. I recommend listening to the 321 system first before you buy it. Bose is like the Apple or Rolex or audio speakers. It's a trendy name and it has status but you might not necessarily need the product. On a positive note, it does upscale to 1080p and includes an HDMI cable. For the price, I would expect a DVD changer or at least blu-ray in this day and age. Overall I have no regrets but if money was tight, I would be looking elsewhere for my sound needs.

Comments about Bose 3-2-1 GS Series III DVD Home Entertainment System (Graphite):
I was getting tired of having a complex system with different components (and remotes) for AM/FM Receiver, DVD Player, and CD Player.
Enter the comprehensive solution of the Bose 3-2-1 GS Series III Entertainment system. By using it I was able to replace three components and four remotes with a single component and one remote. This greatly simplified and de-cluttered my entertainment center.
The remote is pretty good although I would've liked it better if it was lighted so that controlling the DVD player in a darkened room would be easier. The sound is pretty good out of the box, but you can significantly improve it to match your room by making adjustments to it.
