About the Bose® Companion® 3 Series II multimedia speaker system
Enjoy premium stereo sound from your computer with the Bose Companion® 3 Series II multimedia speaker system. This 3-piece speaker system produces clean, spacious audio with deep, rich bass that draws you into your music and game soundtracks. The included stands angle the compact left and right speakers slightly upward for optimal listening, and the separate Acoustimass® module slips neatly under your desk.
Expansive sound from a discreet system
The key to the Companion® 3 system's wide-open sound is Bose's TrueSpace signal processing circuitry — it creates a broad soundstage from slim speakers spaced no further apart than the width of your computer monitor. The small satellites handle the upper frequencies, while the Acoustimass® module adds impressive lows. Together they give you warm, lifelike sound that most conventional computer speakers simply can't match.
Control at your fingertips
The Companion® 3 system also includes an easy-to-use control pod. It houses the volume control as well as a headphone jack and an auxiliary input for an iPod® or other MP3 player. The separate control pod means you can place the speakers out of the way and still have easy access to the system's volume control and connections for additional gear.

Satellite Speakers: Each satellite uses a 2" long-throw, wide-range driver for lifelike, spacious sound. The satellites are attached to stands. If you prefer, you can detach them from the stands and use the rubber feet that come with the package. The satellite dimensions are:
- On the stand: W=3.375", H=5.844", D=3.386"
- Satellite only: W=2.788", H=2.521", D=2.599"
Proprietary TrueSpace Technology: The proprietary TrueSpace Technology enables a wide soundstage from closely spaced speakers on your desk or on the sides of your flat panel monitor.
Compact Acoustimass Module: The compact Acoustimass Module delivers clean, deep low frequencies into the room. The module can be hidden almost anywhere in the listening area and allows for small, elegant speakers without sacrificing performance.
Control Pod: The multi-function pod houses volume control, headphone jack and connection for a second audio source such as an MP3 player.
Active Equalization: The active equalization electronically tunes the frequency response, enabling outstanding audio performance for improved speech intelligibility.

My dad had picked these up and i was like, wow, its bose. but after hearing them, the tiny speakers are great at filling a room with music and not distorting. and the sub was perfect. not to loud to drown out the speakers, but not to soft to make it seem like all it was was high notes.
