Product Details

Bose Companion 2 Series II Multimedia Speaker System, Model COMP2II

The Companion® 2 Series II multimedia speaker system represents a significant upgrade in sound and style over original equipment computer speakers. Enjoy sharp, expansive sound for music, movies and games. These sleek and compact speakers fit easily in their surroundings to save useful desk space. Dual inputs make it a snap to connect your computer and portable audio sources at the same time. Both volume and the headphone jack reside on the front of one speaker to provide easy control over your listening experience.

Key Features:

  • Proprietary TrueSpace® stereo signal processing circuitry
    Creates a wide stereo soundstage designed for computer listening, enabling fuller enjoyment of music, movies and games.
  • Dual inputs
    Enjoy two audio sources simultaneously—one from your computer, the other a portable audio device, such as an MP3 or CD player.

Features:

  • TrueSpace® Stereo Signal Processing Circuitry
    This proprietary technology helps maximize audio performance by widening the image of closely placed speakers. You experience audio that seems to come from a soundstage wider than the two speakers, allowing for full performance beyond the computer screen.
  • Ported cabinet design
    Provides clearer, deeper low musical tones and movie/gaming special effects from a small enclosure.
  • Dual inputs
    Enjoy two audio sources simultaneously—one to your computer, the other to a portable audio device.
  • Convenient control and jack placement
    Thoughtful design provides convenient, easy access to volume, headphone jack and connection for a second source.
  • Magnetically shielded speakers
    Magnetic field is essentially confined inside the speakers and will not cause monitor interference or damage to magnetic media such as audio cassette tapes.
  • Automatic tonal balance adjustment
    Automatically adjusts tonal balance for rich, convincing audio performance at practically any listening level.

Use the product for gaming and videos projected on a screen in our living room. Great sound quality from these hidden gems. Wanted small size and quality sound and these met those expectations. A little pricey and wish it had more power but it is probably the best compact speaker system I have ever used.

BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
Use the speakers for classroom and public presentations. Some of my slides include audio and these speakers are powerful enough to fill a room without distortion. Works well for boosting sound with DVD's etc. Reproduction of classical music, folk, and jazz is excellent too. No problem with bass, since I want balance not boom. A tremendous improvement over built in computer speakers.

Reviewed by Nicolae (Frequent Traveler) from Far Rockaway,NY on Sep 02, 2007
Verified Buyer
BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
The mellow clear sound is difficult to have in two small speakers.However, this product,has the professioanl quality sound,in some degree. For this reason,I found it a good purchase,for the computer use. Well.......... Music should vibrate,has overtones,and many accustic treats.Also,the timbre of sound,and ringing soud,are the idioms of quality music.Unfortunately,the natural music sound can be produced only in the Concert Halls,in live performances. So,the technology is one thing,and the sound production another. These Bose speakers are good enough for one who works all day aroud at the computer desk. In spite of the minor cons, the pros of these speakers are remarkable.
Best Uses: At Home, Travel, Office, computer
Cons: Base is focued as themain, base is too focused

BOTTOM LINE Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.
I had no complaint with my previous computer speakers. They were fabulous for listening to music and movies, because they had a separate unit with a sub-woofer. When I discovered [...] that I could get BOSE sound without the extra box--and I could also connect an iPod, I ordered it instantly. I can't believe that the sound quality I'm enjoying now is such an improvement over the high quality sound I had before.Thanks [...]

Good price/performance. Wish I had more speakers to compare them too. My old ones came with the machine (very cheap). These sound way better. I stayed away from the ones with the additional subwoffer because I don't like overly dominate bass. So these work for me! I also purchased the Creative X-Fi Extreme Music audio card. The combo sounds great! I use them for listening to streaming music.
