Our take on the Bose® Companion® 2 Series II multimedia speaker system

by Tara W.

Looking for better sound from your favorite music files, videos and games? Bose's Companion® 2 Series II multimedia speaker system will add depth and clarity to your computer audio sources without taking over your desk. You'll enjoy engaging sound and still have room to get your work done.

Bose's TrueSpace® circuitry is the key — it creates a broad soundstage from speakers spaced no further apart than the width of your computer monitor. You'll hear improved warmth and detail from your MP3s and streaming audio, and added punch from your computer games and DVDs. Two sets of audio inputs let you hook up an additional source, like a portable MP3 player, without having to disconnect the speakers from your computer.

Highlights:

  • multimedia stereo speakers
  • video-shielded
  • TrueSpace® stereo signal processing circuitry
  • volume control
  • dual audio inputs
  • headphone minijack
  • detachable AC power cord
  • graphite with silver trim
  • 3-1/8"W x 7-1/2"H x 7-5/8"D
  • warranty: 1 year
  • Our 60-day money-back guarantee

    Features
    Inputs and Outputs

    Features

    TrueSpace: The Bose Companion 2 speaker system features TrueSpace stereo signal processing circuitry. This proprietary technology helps maximize audio performance by widening the image of closely placed speakers, making the audio seem to come from a soundstage wider than the two speakers.

    Ported Cabinets: Each speaker features a 3/4" diameter port to provide clearer, deeper bass from a small enclosure.

    Magnetically Shielded: The Companion 2 speakers are magnetically shielded to allow you to place them in close proximity to your computer monitor without interfering with the picture quality.

    Dual Inputs: The speakers have two stereo RCA inputs. These dual analog inputs allow you keep the speakers hooked up to your computer, while you use the second input to hook up another source, such as a portable audio device.

    Automatic Tone Adjustment: The Companion 2 speakers automatically adjusts the tonal balance to give you rich audio performance at practically any listening level.

    Convenient Controls: The volume control and headphone jack are conveniently located on the front of the right speaker, giving you easy access. The dual stereo RCA inputs are located on the back of the same speaker. Note: Although the controls and inputs are on the speaker designated as the "right" speaker, you can switch the speakers if it is more convenient to have the inputs and controls on the left side.

    Inputs and Outputs

    Rear of Right Speaker:

    • Audio Inputs: Two stereo RCA inputs
    • Power Input: 12 volt AC/1.2 Amps input for supplied AC adapter
    • Left Speaker Output: Mono 3.5mm mini-jack for feeding audio to left speaker

    Rear of Left Speaker: Hardwired 6' speaker wire terminated with 3.5mm mono mini-plug

    Front of Right Speaker:

    • Volume Control: Rotary volume control
    • Headphone Output: Stereo 3.5mm mini-jack headphone output (speakers are muted when headphones are plugged in)

    Bose delivers again

    Written By Andrew, Solon, OH on Sunday, April 14, 2013
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    Crutchfield delivered these within 2 or 3 days of ordering on line. These little babies are attractive, installed in 2 minutes, and sound great for their size. My daughter has them connected to her Mac laptop. And even the base sounds good.
    Pros:
    Looks nice. Sounds great for size. Price can't be beat.
    Cons:
    Compared to my other Bose speakers, these are not as powerful. But they cost about $200 less!!

    Great computer speakers

    Written By Anonymous, Washington, DC on Wednesday, March 27, 2013
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    These computer speakers have totally spoiled my ears for computer sound. They were so good at home, I had to buy a second pair for work. I can't blast the music as loud as I'd like to (and get quality sound) at home, but just right for work.

    Stellar Sound

    Written By JH, Houston, TX on Tuesday, March 12, 2013
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    These are the Little Speakers That Can. Crystal clear Bose sound quality at a ridiculously reasonable price and compact enough to live on either side of a 21" iMac. I couldn't be happier if they cooked me dinner.
    Pros:
    They are small and mighty.
    Cons:
    I don't have some for every computer in the house.

    Disappinted

    Written By David, Puerto Rico on Tuesday, March 12, 2013
     
    I change my Logitech for this brand. I was very happy but when put it in on, my god . Not hight bass. Very expensive for the price. You buy other brand with best sound and bass. Please not waste your money. If you want waste money ok buy this speaker. The sound is not bad bud is too much money for this speaker.
    Pros:
    Compact speaker
    Cons:
    Low bass

    Great Sound!

    Written By richflores, Laguna Beach, CA on Tuesday, March 05, 2013
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    The sound coming from these speakers have great quality. There is enough bass to compliment them, no need for a subwoofer unless you want more bang for your buck.
    Pros:
    Great price. Built solid. Easy setup. Great Sound.
    Cons:
    There is a "hissing noise" in the background when the speakers are turned on and no music is coming through them. Although you don't hear it when music is coming through, it can be annoying. The only way to stop this noise is to turn off the speakers. Anyone who has suggestions to get rid of this "noise" will be appreciated.

    Outstanding speakers

    Written By SJC, Danville, Illinois on Sunday, January 27, 2013
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    Small speakers provide high quality room-filling sound. I will be using them for Keynote presentations off of a Macbook Pro. Bought a 15 foot 3.5 mm stereo male to to 2 RCA male extension cable to bring audio from the laptop headphone jack to the speakers which will be away from the podium closer to the projector/audience. I practiced in a large 2 story room and the audio is clear and undistorted.

    Smooth sounding speakers

    Written By Tubaman, Laurel, MD on Saturday, January 26, 2013
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    These speakers sound very clear and mellow. Bass is excellent but treble is understated. The lack of tone controls on the speakers is a major shortcoming.
    Pros:
    Small footprint, excellent bass and classic styling offer plenty of bang for the buck. No subwoofer is needed.
    Cons:
    No tone controls.

    Bose Companion 2 speakers

    Written By mmilversted, Phoenix, AZ on Thursday, January 17, 2013
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    The speakers are great however I purchased them to connect to an iPad. The connection cable from the main speaker does not fit into the iPad so I had to buy a different cable in order to make it work. I wish the literature had explained the connection so I was prepared to spend another $20.00 or could have ordered the separate cable with the speakers.

    What I expected

    Written By MRBM, Hilo, HI on Saturday, September 22, 2012
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    The sound quality is very good and what I expected from a "low end" Bose speaker. I've had other Bose products, and have listened to many other Bose products in store. I was buying the "name" in this instance because I believe in it's quality. Those who want more oomph will just need to buy the next model up--that one will rock your home.

    I purchased these speakers for my iMac Computer. I am pleased with the sound quality, and would recommend them because they are a good value. One minor disappointment, is they could use more volume.
    Pros:

    Not that good

    Written By thestockk, NJ on Thursday, August 02, 2012
     
    Disappointed. I thought i was upgrading my Altec Lansing speakers w/sub to these speakers, but not what i was expecting. I need my sub woofer back, good bye Bose Companion 2. The cables are way too short and it lacks base. Plus it has lots of noise. Actually hard to listen to.
    Pros:
    Hmmm, ok for desktop generic speakers, but too pricey for that.
    Cons:
    No base, short cables.

    Great desktop speakers - as long as you don't push the limits

    Written By WhatLukeSays, Richmond, VA on Saturday, June 09, 2012
     
    The Bose Companion 2 Series II Multimedia Speakers are Bose's entry level computer speakers that they claim are a performance upgrade over most conventional computer speakers.

    Pros: - Magnetically shielded casing - Shape of casing points speakers up to your head - Easy to set up - Headphone jack on front of speaker means you don't have to unplug from your computer - Dual audio inputs for mixed output - Well built and sturdy - Small enough to be portable

    Cons: - Hissing noise when no music is playing

    Sound quality: - Very crisp highs and mids - Bass is full, but will not blow you away - Impressive volume

    If you would like to see a more comprehensive review, please feel free to watch my in-depth video review that I made for my YouTube channel. I cover everything from the build quality to how these speakers actually sound.

    Thanks for reading and watching!

    the Bose elite

    Written By Tom, Greene, RI on Friday, May 18, 2012
    Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
     
    My kids wanted me to buy something I wanted, so just gave me money. I had a simple set of PC speakers but really like music and they didn't cut it. So with the wind fall, I bit the bullet and purchased these speaker. My first thought 'highly over priced'. As Bose believes they are they best, well they are good, maybe not the best. Anyway, I am very impressed with the sound these speaker produce. Placed correctly left/right and within 4 feet facing you, they are marvalous. If the price doesn't scare you, buy baby buy.
    Pros:
    fine quality for PC proximity, good base, good treble.
    Cons:
    price (maybe), no power light, PC to speaker cable is too short (had to find a longer one).
