Reviews around product (5.00 of 5)

  • I love Bose products and cherish my Wave and the Bose sterero in my car
  • I have to say, that This is the best product out there, for such a reasonable price you get the most clear sound you cannot ever get form any other supplier
  • Inexpensive for a bose system, I must recommend this product
  • While I praise this product's unique virtues, I cannot say I recommend it given Bose's notorious "bigger idiot theory" of product pricing (i.e. "with enough info-mercials and slick ad campaigns, and pricing through the nose to increase 'perceived value,' there will be enough 'bigger idiots' to make us rich!").If you listen to this speaker at Best Buy or Circuit City and like it, look for a low-miles used one on ebay
  • It's also worth it to mention they are easily the most sylish speakers out there and one of the few brands of comupter speakers that also make other top-notch audio products

Reviews around look (5.00 of 5)

  • If you are getting:-Tiny great looking speakers that show their quality-Clear, Lifelike, undistorted spacious sound <B>UNSURPASSED</B> by ANY other
  • and you won't be able to help but be impressed by their good looks, excellent sound from any source, and rock solid reliability.
  • I have these great looking speakers plugged in to my Mac with the system volume turned all the way and the Bose speaker volume all the down and they sound great for listening to music.
  • I dunno if they are the sexiest speakers i've ever seen, but are modern looking and suprisingly small for all the sound they produce
  • And I am talking about loud and CLEAR sound from the tiny speakers that are just so cool looking on my desk.

Reviews around touch (5.00 of 5)

  • All i do Is just hit the snazzy mute (touch sensitive) and its the hissing is gone, nothing to not buy them over.
  • The other complaint is that the touch sensitive mute on top of the "hockey puck" control is a bit too sensitive for me
  • The volume/headphone jack/second audio source/mute control disc is a really nice touch too
  • The volume is very smooth, although the mute can be somewhat sensitive at times (it has a touch sensor like in some lamps, etc.)

Reviews around use (5.00 of 5)

  • I've been using ADCOM components to run my PC sounds to my Snell J2 bookshelf speakers, but wanted something more immediate to my desk -- an in-your-face type of sound, not so much a room-filler, and, well, I got it
  • Many "macaholics" say it is because Macs are just more sophisticated, slicker, smoother, "cooler" and more pleasant to use than the average generic Windoze beige box, and this makes Macs worth their premium cost
  • The volume control system is just great, with one touch you get on-off, and volume using the wheel around it, easy and convenient

Reviews around bose lover (5.00 of 5)

  • Hi all, firstly, I am a Bose lover and after reading some reviews from some people who posted negative reviews, I also would like to say something fair.
  • Whenever I read something like the following oft-repeated mantra from Dallas Electronics Fan:"No highs, no lows (must be Bose!)"I am reminded that there is a cadre of Bose haters out there possessed with as fervent a religious fanaticism as the Bose lovers

Reviews around bass (4.10 of 5)

  • The speakers provide ample bass but other frequencies sound cheap.
  • WEll the bass was great but the satelites weren't "heavenly".
  • The bass is awesome but the sattelites leave much to be desired
  • But over the period of time maybe due to the curing of the bass module it delivers an excessive bass taking over lot of mid range and highs
  • These Bose speakers immediately captured my attention with their clarity and solid bass.

Reviews around volume (4.03 of 5)

  • The control pad is handy -- volume is easy to control and you can instantly mute the system with a touch on the pad.
  • so be careful and remember to listen to music at a safe volume and only loudly for a short period and never let your ears ring
  • The volume is very smooth, although the mute can be somewhat sensitive at times (it has a touch sensor like in some lamps, etc.)
  • I abused the volume too much
  • The volume control system is just great, with one touch you get on-off, and volume using the wheel around it, easy and convenient

Reviews around price (3.92 of 5)

  • Makes photo editing and slide show making more enjoyable and the price was better than a new program or more memory or any other advancement.
  • Secondly I think that the price was actually pretty good.
  • These things are ridiculously overpriced, maybe 150 would be a fair price for these but not 250, thats insane
  • High price should be considered (kind of like a Mercedes/MBW selling for more than it's worth because of the name
  • I have to say, that This is the best product out there, for such a reasonable price you get the most clear sound you cannot ever get form any other supplier

Reviews around system (3.71 of 5)

  • The system is very compact, and can be placed anywhere.
  • The system looks good and the mouse-type volume control/mute/headphone jack/input jack is a good idea.
  • and after seeing the logitech z-5500, they don't even look that good. if you're spending this much on computer speakers, you may as well get a digital 5.1 system
  • I love the system but it failed six months after my warranty expired.

Reviews around quality (3.42 of 5)

  • I assumed -- unwisely -- that given the Bose brand and high price tag, that the sound quality would be wonderful, or at least average
  • Bose definitely is the best quality brand for all systems sound
  • It isn't though and the sound quality is shockingly bad
  • I was looking for something to use in my flat for my ipod, and wanted something loud and good quality
  • We're a little incredulous that BOSE, for all its famed style and sound quality, wouldn't have noted this deal-killing flaw

Reviews around speaker (3.33 of 5)

  • These are great little speakers, but they are way overpriced
  • , The sattelite speakers hiss a little when no music is on but nothing nerve racking.
  • As for now it is company who sells crappy speakers for reach guys
  • Then i went online and found out that you need to break in new speakers for 20 hours to get best performance.
  • If you are looking for loud speakers with rich highs and lows .

Reviews around bose (3.12 of 5)

  • I've owned the Klipsch Pro-Media set and a high end Altec-Lansing set, however this Bose is easily my favorite because it sounds great at the low volumes I usually listen at.
  • I liked the sound from the Klipsch nearly as much as the Bose, but the Klipsch speakers began to crackle after only a few
  • speakers(the klipsch 2.1 were considered the best 2.1 setup, the bose kills them in spaciousness and
  • The Logitech Z-2300 are capable of playing a bit louder, but unless you are a college kid just looking for loud boomy output, the Logitechs are clearly not as good overall as the Bose Companion 3 speakers
  • We're a little incredulous that BOSE, for all its famed style and sound quality, wouldn't have noted this deal-killing flaw
