First I had the Bose Companion 20 Bose Companion 3 and viewed in various markets and extensively consulted. And I was fascinated by the sound and the reproduction of Bose. Well, since I did not want a sub (dark black box), I opted for Bose Companion 20th
With Amazon purchases, unpacked and connected. Sound was good until I heard Helene Fischer with "Breathless". Here the bass was very boomy, so I was disappointed from the speakers. Sound of Sting and the Eagles (California) exceptionally well reproduced. Toll !!! I found myself and had decided to keep them. I thought it is up to the song of Breathless. Recording and so ...
When I came into the office the next day, I heard a high-pitched tone, then when I went about this whistle, it was the power of the new Bose Companion 20 Well I thought e-mail to Bose and that should NEN new Send Netztel and well is - to date no response to my email; Bose called yesterday (a week later), I should like to address Amazon; Amazon called Speaker discontinued, solution: purchase price refund. Amazon has this date no longer available !!!
For this reason, I had to re-look. Bose I no longer wanted. After researching on the Internet and Amazon I found the Logitech Z 323 and the Harman Kardon Sound Sticks III. So reappointed at Amazon speakers - unpacked and installed.
Logitech packed right back and back. The sound is tinny and bland. I am aware that these are priced much cheaper. Nevertheless, I wanted to try this. Then I have the Harman Kardon connected and am amazed. When ordering, I found the speakers ugly, but as I had in the hands - great. Sonically absolutely clear, eye-catcher on the desk, tired and forcefully (in particular the height), the deep sounds can be controlled on the sub. The volume can be adjusted on a Stick by touch.
What bothers me and that's why only 4 stars, that the regulation of the bass and the switching should be to regulate on the stick. This can be in this model only on the sub. Otherwise, top speakers; and cheaper as Bose :-). The Sub I have set up on the desk, and lo and behold, even looks good.
If this Harman Kardon hold now 10 years, I'm totally satisfied. Bose I will no longer buy. The support is bad and also the information on the power consumption are very deficient. I had planned 2 years ago to create the Bose Lifestyle series for the living room. Again, I had to ask at Bose, in particular power consumption and so on. The feedback on my emails came after about 6 weeks. No, not so! So no more Bose !!!
Harman Kardon contrast here makes clear and unambiguous information on the power consumption, which convinces ...
