Outstanding when placed correctly
The more I listen the more I am amazed. I must say that at first I disregarded all instructions when setting this system up. I placed the satellites too far from each other, and not at ear level. Plus I tried to tweak them using the windows audio settings. I was crushed.
Pros:
- Great Sound Quality
- Surround sound emulation
Cons:
- Exactness of placement
- Price

Companion 5 speakers create an incredible sound experience.
In my opinion, the sound quality of the Bose Companion 5 speaker is absolutely amazing. If you're playing music from your computer, it actually sounds like it is live at a concert. Blu-Ray movies sound incredible and the Bose speaker deliver the true surround-sound experience.
Pros:
- Incredible sound quality.
Cons:
- Very expensive
- Bass box takes up a lot of space
- This is only one AUX input socket

BOSE COMPANION 5: Good for a desktop user but WAY too expensive
The Companion 5's work well enough for the small desktop environment, but, their huge price tag and only moderate preformance stop me from recommending them.
Pros:
- Attractive
- high quality design
Cons:
- Doesn't truly give surround sound
- Bypasses sound cards
- Sound range

Excellent speaker system with brilliantly powerful and clear music. Easy to control.
I debated for a long time whether to purchase the companion 3 or 5 speakers, as it was a ￡50 price difference and from what I could see all you got was a USB connection and a claim the companion 5s can reproduce 5.1 surround sound. I eventually gave in to the companion 5s and I was not disappointed!

Great Sound from Bose
Once again Bose does it well, but does it at a price that most cannot afford. The sound is great and the very small size of the desktop speakers are a big plus. The speakers should not be placed more than 24 inches apart when lisitening to 5.1 thru the decoder.

Bose Companion 5 Multimedia Speaker System
At 64 years old I have owned just about every type of sound system and brands on the market to date "and I love my music". I didn't want to spend the asking price for this system "but" I am so glad I did. I have owned Bose products in the past and I still do, besides the Bose 5 system.

Good Value for the Price
Its simply superb product and worth for the price.The Bose system in my llving room (about a 14 x 18 foot room) is remarkable. Across all ranges, from highs to lows, the Bose system delivers sharp, clean sound. I am impressed.

Sounds excellent
Sound is excellent, I was thinking of going for the Companion 3 but shelled out the $ for the 5. I am completely happy with the sound quality, high end is crisp, bass is solid, design is done right.
