I am more than satisfied with the Bose Companion 2 Series III. The sound is really well done and I never thought that from such small boxes so rich and deep bass, could even at higher volumes out tones. The Companion I use daily on PC for videos, movies, games, etc., but also to the sound of friends because the sound for smaller rooms perfectly adequate to have a good time. However, I realized that the correct positioning of the boxes (and the audience) improves the sound experience significantly. Thus you can experience the really good Bose sound only when you have the two boxes directly aligned to itself. For all other listeners the sound is indeed still very very good, but still not optimal; This is also not always necessary. In any case I would define my boxing again without hesitation. Maybe the hype can indeed after sometime, I am after two months of intense use but still excited! Despite the high price, the value is just great!
