Customer Ratings & Reviews

I'm not an audiophile so I can't go over any technical specifics, but I've heard enough music over headphones and speakers to know what sounds right for me. Initially I felt like I could live with adequate sound since I didn't want to spend to much on desktop speakers. I did come across this set and at $100.00 dollars, it was more then I was willing to spend. However after listening to some sample music and hearing such strong bass and precise full range from the speakers, I caved and got it. I don't regret it. Not surprisingly, it performed very well during gaming. Although the speakers are not that wide apart from my monitor, the speakers were able to create space and distance giving me a sense of audio depth needed for these quick action games.

I bought these speakers to replace my aging JBL Duet speakers and what an impressive upgrade these are. For being a small set of speakers without a subwoofer the sound is very impressive. Bass is good, response is fantastic and the higher volumes doesn't distort the sound like a cheaper set of speakers would. The design is elegant and goes with any type of computer and looks great on my desk along with my MacBook Pro and iMac G4. I love Bose products and would have no problem recommending these to a friend.

These aren't perfect speakers but they function very well, the sound quality is better than expected. This product was easy and ready to be used out of the box. My only complaint is that the wires are shorter than I would like which is why its a 4 not a 5

The best quality, Clarity and multi room filling superb sound! These speakers should be twice the cost for what you receive! I can't imagine anything in comparison to these speakers! I rarely write reviews but hands down, there are no reason to look further! I swear as much as I enjoy Bass in my sound systems, these come with more then enough without the cost of anything comparable! Without a doubt, BOSE has Polk, Beats and Monster Audio in its shadow as I have tried all others! Awesome job BOSE!

Really, more like 4.5 stars. I'm using these speakers on my PC, replacing an old, inexpensive Altec-Lansing 3-piece system with subwoofer. That system's bass was rather flabby and boomy, unless I turned down the bass with the remote... Then it'd be non-existent, even when I turned the bass down just the tiniest bit I could manage. No happy medium at all, and I decided to try a new set of speakers. The Boses sound crisp and clean with little or no noticeable distortion, much more musical than the old speakers. Bass is a little bit shy, but not that much. Better than boomy and thumpy any day. Just a teeny bit more bass, and they'd be 5-stars... But for a hundred bucks, whaddaya want?

Gorgeous sound. Perfect volume, range and bass for a desktop set up. I wanted a sleek, low profile set up for my Mac-oriented home office and these were the perfect choice. You could get more bass with Logitech but I hated the cheap, clunky, plastic look and I don't need bass to blow out my windows with a sub. The bass and lows in these speakers surprised me and the acoustics are clear and crisp, these speakers perform the way you's expect with Bose. Ultimately these were the perfect choice, very happy with my purchase

I love this product, it was a birthday gift. for about an hour and knew right away I would need something better. Excellent sound quality... especially at the price point. I'll probably graduate to something else in 3 to 5 years, but I love having the Bluetooth feature and having fully automatic functionality. Now if only there was better quality control on the vinyl end (you never know what you're gonna get). I have no regrets over this purchase. You can't go wrong with the Audio-technica brand.

Sounds great, which I expect from Bose. We own a few Bose speakers and they’ve never disappointed. This particular one worries me at first but the sound is clear, treble is pure, and the bass is rich.

I've used this product for over 2 years now and it hasn't broken a sweat since. It still works exactly as the first day I bought it. The sound is great, the defice itself has a minimal design anddoesn't take much space on the desk. Do not expect to much base for this. The sound is crisp and I have played many music genres and movies, I have no complaints about the sound.

I was looking for quality small portable speakers for my laptop to increase volume and sound quality for music and movies. After buying and returning another brand for low volume and sound quality, I purchased these Bose speakers for under $100. They are everything I was looking for. Simple to hook up, portable, and they sound great with plenty of volume and balance between highs, midrange and bottom. A great buy for the money.

I purchased these for my Apple Mac Mini M2. They look great on my desk and sound even better. I listen to Spotify on my desktop while I am working, and the sound that comes out of these speakers is very nice, with a nice bass response.

Upgraded to these speakers from a 2.1 setup. Excellent highs and still get some bass sound from these speakers. Takes up less space than my old ones and better sound. Well worth the upgrade!

Great sound! I was a little concerned because there wasn't a sub woofer. There is great sound without it. The cables are short, that would be the only negative. I called Bose to get a 6 foot extension cable for the left speaker and they shipped it out at no cost. I picked up 6 foot jack extension from Best Best and that solved my cable problem. Overall great quality speakers for the price.

I use the Bose Companion 2 series III speakers with my all in one computer. Good stereo separation, excellent clarity, and somewhat weak bass, although , like many other speakers, increasing the volume also increases the bass. Set up took less than five minutes (it took longer to remove the speakers from the hard plastic protective covering). Connect the two speakers to each other, connect to your computer, plug in and turn on. That's it. Like other Bose products, solidly built and sleek looking.

I love these. The whole office can hear on medium volume and they asked if I had a subwoofer because the base is so clean. They also look really clean. I usually like to keep it clean and these do that.

Primary use: Watching movies or videos, music, and just wanting to hear what's going on, on my PC. I have long abstained from buying any speakers for a really long time and stuck to cheap earbuds because the weakest link in all speakers are the wires. When a short develops in the wire from even careful handling, it can cause one speaker to not work, and with really cheap speakers manufactured these days, all connections even power are soldered in the speaker housing and this means the wires aren't easily replaced and the whole speakers are just thrown away (along with your money as well). After reading a lot of reviews, I decided to buy these speakers and after watching a few movies I realized I made the right choice. Usually I connected my GFX card to my TV with HDMI (that also provided audio) to watch movies without being chained to earbuds. Coming from that, the sound from these speakers seemed 'strange' at first and I realized I was hearing things I haven't before (subtle things, like paper shuffling) and the sound seemed overall richer and vibrant than what came from the T.V.. These speakers are excellent for this price range but they do suffer the same design flaw for all speakers in this price range and decided to deduct a star for that reason: the cable connection in the left speaker (that goes to the right speaker) is hardwired into the housing which means *IF* that cable goes bad then it isn't easily replaced with an off the shelf 3.5mm cable. If you are looking for quality 2.0 PC speakers around $100, I definitely recommend these.

These are excellent speakers for using with your computer on your desk. When you don't want to have them loud just to get full rich sound. The size is nice and small for the desk and produces deceptively good sound for their size and they look good too. I would recomend them to using the in this way.

We bought these to use with our turntable and absolutely love them! They sound amazing and get really loud for how small they are!

I bought these for a livestream hoping they'd pick up on the mics and they certainly did. Clear audio, good volume, solid build, and overall nice speakers.

My old all-in-one computer died and we had to purchase a new computer. We decided not to go with another all-in-one but get a desktop instead. That meant that we needed to purchase speakers as well. These were recommended by the sales associate and, at first, I balked at spending another hundred dollars for speakers. I am glad that I did. These speakers have a full, rich sound, and the volume can get cranked up pretty high without any distortion. I would purchase this item again, and would recommend it to others.
