Bose ® Computer Music Monitor ® Speaker Silver Metallic (Electronics)

Customer Review

Once there is no practical review here, I feel called, time to write something to the Bose Music Monitor.
I have the speakers since 12/2011, while they are almost daily use. I use it primarily at your desk as a PC speaker for music mixed genres (from classical to hip hop to metal of different directions) and video games.

I have plus the matching nylon bag. Since I like to professionally than a month at a time working somewhere outside, which is a big advantage - the things are packed within minutes and perfectly protected. In the hotel / accommodation they are then built up again just as quickly. In apartments they have already often proved.

I am not a specialist when it comes to Sound - the purely subjective sound impression is surprisingly good and is somewhere far beyond 'normal' 2.1 system and a bit under good headphones (Sennheiser HD558) and my standing speakers at the amplifier (Jamo 608 on Harman Kardon AVR170) , The sound has no equal in this size of the speakers. I have not heard anything better in PC speakers. The sound is also quite balanced - not like in these low bass monsters from Logitech and his associates in the red / blue power market ... Those things are a little smaller than the satellite on average 2.1 Set and sound bombastic. They come complete without a subwoofer out - at the desk no matter traveling super. Also, the maximum level without appreciable loss of sound surprised - especially in terms of size.

The speakers are well made and make a quality impression. The remote control is the typical foil card in such sets - I have not unpacked and needs. On the right speakers are an on / off button and volume up / down keys attached. Connection is via a standard 3.5mm jack / jack cable.
Only downside is obviously the purchase price. At most, the cable of the power supply is a bit short. Bose are in my opinion the masters when it comes to big sound in a compact design. Unfortunately you pay still very strong with the name ...

My subjective impression of the set are 4-5 stars. The value fluctuates somewhere a 2-3 stars.

PS: I've written, like me the Schnabel has grown. I answer questions like, but literary masterpieces are generally not to be expected with me :)
