I am thinking of buying one in the future. The sound is great. Thing is, our room is not a usual shape and the sound will have to bounce quite far on the one wall. The T.V. system will be in a 10X16 area (t.v. and speaker being on the 10 foot wide wall) but one side wall (16 foot) is a knee wall and there will be a games room area beside it and it too is approximately 10X16. Does anyone know how well the sound bounces and if it would be good stereo sound in the T.V. area?

The bose system can not be calibrated for a person's room. You can simply rotate the speakers around a bit. There are no calibrations in the menu for individual speaker level either.
What you are asking about is the Yamaha YSP system. I own one and it is fantastic. The new systems come with a calibration microphone and will calibrate each channel INDIVIDUALLY for your room, and you can even change individual channel levels, tone, and angles of sound.
The larger model (YSP-1000) can handle up to a 40x40 room, the smaller (YSP-800) will work for a 20x30 room. Go take a listen, I love mine.

The callibration of the unit allows you to adjust it for your particlular room. The callibration fairly easy to do if you read the instructions and the system is very flexible in its ability to simulate surround sound in the situation that you described.

I think that you need to look at the Bose 3.2.1 system it has 2 front speaker and one sub this will work like 5.1 and you can do sound calibration with it to fit your room ...

I am a Yamaha dealer and I have two in inventory that I will sell you for cost. They were ordered for two customers who later upgraded to full 5.1. Please contact me if your interested. And yeah they work great, not as good as 5.1 seperate but alot less $ and WAY easier and less hectic to set-up. Make sure you run it digitally from whatever sources you are able to (DVD, digital cable etc) It makes a big difference.
