Bose Companion 5 Multimedia Speaker System
The Bose Companion 5 multimedia speaker system is a sleek black-and-gray 2.1 setup promising "surround-like" performance. Though it's aimed at the desktop-computer crowd (it connects via USB), it could easily fill a living room with sound.
Pros:
- The subwoofer delivers nice rumble

- Wired control has volume and mute button
Cons:
- "Surround-like" is NOT real surround sound
- The satellites are lacking in the mid-high frequencies
- Control is wired
