Used Bose Lifestyle 20 vs. basic modern 5.1 for background music

[dim]

A small cafe (600 sqft) requires an installation for a background music via AUX cable from an iPad. How sound performance of an old used top-of-range system compares to a basic modern system? Bose Lifestyle 20 Music System (???W RMS) vs. Philips HTB5510D 1000W RMS (166W sub), Panasonic SCBTT405EGK 600W RMS (100 W sub) or Sony BDVE2100 1000W RMS (250W sub).
Maybe some other solution for the budget? Please help.

Hello Dim,

Welcome to the Forum. If you are looking for only 5.1 Then check with Yamaha HT which comes within your Budget. But personally i would suggest an Entry Level amp and 4 Book shelf speakers and add Sub in case you need later.

So what is your Budget? If you are open for Preowned then, NAD should be best choice for Cafe with warm sound.
