I really like Bose. When I am listening to music it is a really enjoyable experience.If I were to have an issue, and mainly the reason I couldn't give 5 stars, was that the low tones seem to be only picking up in the sub, and are really distinguishable from the rest of the sound being produced. I like the company, and I like the products they release. I was building my new PC system and saved enough cash to spring for some Bose speakers, although I couldn't bring myself to go for the Companion 5's so I settled with the 3's.I really like these speakers, they sound great. This separation of sound was noticeable to me and enough for me to mention it here.I would recommend any Bose product to people who can afford them, they are excellently made, and Bose is a great company that sinks 100% of its money back into research and development of new sound technologies. They will always be a leader in the field, and always be on the cutting edge of sound.
For some reason, the sound quality when I used it was very poor. The two speakers are incredibly small, as Bose products usually are. It is a small disc you can place almost anywhere. The weird thing, however, is that the subwoofer is absolutely enormous.
There is also a plug-in for headphones there, but, as I mentioned earlier, I wouldn't recommend them. It is, in fact, too deep for my shelf on my desk, so it hangs over an inch or two. I bought Bose because I wanted a small footprint; instead a got two tiny footprints and a Sasquatch.2) The controller has a plug-in point for headphones. Since this is a largely positive review, I am going to start with the negatives, and get them out of the way.1) Size. Truth be told, however, I don't know too many people who have 5.1 speakers attached to their computer. 2) The controller is a stroke of genius.
You turn it to adjust the volume, and tap the top to mute. Absolute simplicity.
If I need surround sound, I plug in my headphones. This is wonderful.
Overall, an excellent choice. Now I stick the headphones in the main computer, where they belong.Now the positives:1) Sound quality is excellent.
I use my computer for gaming and occasionally Netflix movies, and I have been very pleased with both. As other reviews have mentioned, this is a 2.1 speaker system, and you definitely lose some sound quality from a 5.1.
For everything else, these speakers absolutely do the job.
herd at a store , gave as gift. I assume they arrived in good working order.
I have used Lansing speakers for a few years now. How can Bose even charge $100.00 for the system. When I turned on the system for the first time though I actually got mad.
So when I got a new computer in my other office, I thought I would get the $249.00 Bose speaker system and hook it up in my main room. Thinking it was just me though I asked not less that 5 other people their impression and it was the same. I play soft jazz during my eye examinations, and get a lot of compliments from my patients on the music I play.
How can Bose justify their $249.00 cost when to be honest with you the Lansing system actually had a better sound. This would really sound great. When I set up the system I was very impressed at the quality of the product and couldn't wait to hear the music.
Tinny sound and not as rich as the Lansing system. Sorry Bose but I do not think you have a good valus here.
Great to have it.Its more than just computer speaker, you can enjoy the movie with same sound experience as of any good home theater.Loud and crisp sound at full intensity also, you will not miss a single beat of music.
