From the Manufacturer
Odds are, your computer is a primary source of entertainment. So why rely on standard computer speakers when so much rich content resides at your fingertips? Step up to Bose's Companion 2 speakers and unleash your computer's true potential with powerful, full-range sound for CDs, DVDs, MP3s, streaming videos, games, and more. Companion 2 speakers enhance the subtleties in your music while also enriching the rousing resonance of movie and game sound effects. Think of them as giving new voice to your computer. And with Bose TrueSpace stereo signal processing, that voice really has some reach. Whether you set the speakers next to your monitor or place them farther apart, you'll enjoy a spacious, dramatic soundstage that seems to extend beyond the desktop.
The sleek and compact speakers fit easily in their surroundings to save useful desk space, while the dual inputs connect to both your computer and portable audio sources at the same time. The system also features a volume control and headphone jack on the front of one speaker to provide easy control over your listening experience. And users won't have to worry about video interference, as the speakers are magnetically shielded to ensure a crisp, uninterrupted picture.

HOWEVER, there is one thing that annoys me GREATLY about these speakers!
I have VERY LIMITED space, so I have to keep the speakers together on my very small desk. Luckily, the music masks the sound while in use, but when I'm not online - I have to unplug them so I don't hear that obnoxious sound!
It may seem like a tiny thing, but when you have a quiet room and that's all you hear, it gets to you!
I wish they'd warn you about that kinda stuff, but then again, these speakers work AMAZINGLY with clear, crisp sound and AWESOME bass despite the fact they lack a woofer!
To start with, I bought these for my wife to use with her iPod. There are no incompatibility problems and they work fine. I do find the lack of a way to turn them off, short of unplugging them a bit of a shortcoming. The range of response seems a little limited to me (changing the EQ setting on the iPod produces a definite change in the sound, but I would expect a little more richness in the changes). The size is a bit more than I expected from Bose, a company that excels at putting good sound in small packages. Lastly, I feel that the speakers were over priced for what I got (unless there is some inherent benefit in the Bose label that I don't know of).
Bottom line, I have a better set of speakers, in the Creative Labs I-Trigue 2200 2.0 Speakers, on my computer (at least to my ears), for less than half the cost. So think hard and shop around before you jump on the Bose name, or better yet, if you can, try them out first.

Super recommended!
I didn't want to spend an arm and a leg on speakers.These speakers make it seem like we have an expensive stereo in our room at a VERY reasonable price.
Thanks again, Bose!
