The only way Klipsch would be a better choice for games (if that's your primary interest) than DigiTheatre DTS is:
a) You're planning on using the speakers on a computer, not a DVD player, PS2, or Xbox, AND...
b) You don't have an nForce motherboard

The DDTS don't have rear analog inputs, so they don't get 5.1 channel in games unless they have Dolby Digital sound (like xbox, ps2, and some upcoming computer games, i.e. doom III, etc.). nForce boards encode audio on the fly into Dolby Digital sound.

If your focus isn't gaming, the DDTS will blow Klipsch out of the water for sound clarity and features.

Bose use paper cones, the cheapest type of speaker material they could come up with, and horrible for good sound reproduction.

Last time I checked, you bought speakers to listen to them, not admire how small they look on your wall.

if boses only concern was loud, and mids and highs and lows...they would made some big fat ugly tower speakers. these are awesome if you want very small speakers = less clutter.

Good thing Bose isn't concerned about mids, highs, and lows...otherwise, they would have made speakers that were listenable. Problem is, there are plenty of sub/sat combinations that sound excellent and are only slightly larger yet cost a lot less. This is why Bose is suck.

.....i have bose speakers, and 2 sets of towers....for the size/sound comparison the boses are good.

Well, that pretty much sums it up.
