Just as the title says. I got this speaker set back in Aug 2008 as a gift, and noticed Bose's warranty is only 1yr in the USA I guess.


The speaker that sounds (still works though) blow is the right channel. I have no idea what's in the speaker container, as I haven't taken it apart yet, like if there are one or two etc. speakers in there.


I am highly capable of fixing it myself, but don't really know where to get a replacement speaker from as I can't find anything..

I'm also willing to buy the entire speaker container itself if need be..


Is this normal for Bose quality? I rarely use the speakers, so it is sorta shocking to me for $250 computer speakers to break already..


Any suggestions?

Bo$e and "quality" are not to be used in the same sentence.


The only source of parts or repair is Bo$e - it is a totally proprietary and closed system.


Call their customer service department and see what they will do - it's your only option if you want to keep the Bose system.

Since when did Bose only have 1 year warranties on their speakers? This is news to me. You pay high prices AND only get a one year warranty? That's not good.

You may want to look into another set of computer speakers that cost a whole lot less and work a whole lot better, such as something from Logitech, which would run you no more than $50.
