Reviews of the Bose Companion 2 Series II (graphite)
-
CNET Review
The Good: Headphone jack and volume control on front of right speaker; dual stereo inputs; respectable bass for a 2.0 desktop speaker; attractive design; most affordable Bose PC speakers.
The Bad: Sound isn't as good as other computer speakers in this price class.
The Bottom Line: Bose's entry-level Companion 2 Series II speakers offer good bass and dual inputs--but they're not the best-sounding PC speakers in their price class.
