Bose are a household name in the UK, just like Bang & Olufsen, Sony, Panasonic, LG, Philips, <insert your brand here>, etc.
I guess it's because their systems are marketed as a complete solution with a lifestyle choice angle thrown in.
Note that Meridian and Cyrus have engaged in the above in ABC/123-pitched mags/supplements.
You know, I don't think I have ever seen an ad for a hi-fi separate component outside of the specialist press, with the exception of Bose phones, which have become the "defacto" standard for frequent flyers and are known to the general public by word-of-mouth osmosis. This is very effective marketing - the products sell themselves.
