Which is the best bose surround sound system?

I need advise on a bose system
lifestyle 48 vs v120. which is better? I know that I cant judge by price alone. a bose rep told my wife the lifestyle 48 was the best(no hdmi connections). the circuit city guy told me that the v120 was a better system....

please if anybody can help me decide?

Hi,

Do you mean the 48 v. 35 (which comes with v120)? I can't find any stats for Bose 120 on it's own...either way, the 48 looks pretty fierce. I'd get that one. The ADAPTiQ system, found only in Lifestyle® DVD systems, was developed to analyze your room and then adjust the Lifestyle® system for a consistent, high-quality performance each time you listen.

Also, the speakers look nice and small-not too clunky.
