Does the Infinity Basslink fix the Bose "boominess"? Anyone have one that they like?

Sorry, I changed my response above when I realized what you were saying.

Default OK. The problem is that it's not very predictable how it will all sound like together.

I guess you could try it, and if it still sounds "odd", you could then replace the amp, and "deBose" the radio head, and then you can be assured of being able to get decent sound.

Yeah, that's why I was hoping someone on the forum who's done it could comment on the sound

Default I put a Basslink in my Bose system wired upstream.......

from the Bose sub amp, turned off the bose sub, and it sounded like crap. I found the Basslink to be a boomy muddy turd and couldn't believe the favorable posts in AW archives.

I took it back, bought a Boston pro 10"sealed box sub and outboard amp, and now have the tight clean bass I was seeking. I am very happy with the system.

I use a Boston 12.5 sub for my bass. Great sound, very tight.
