Bose Companion 2 Series II (graphite) Review

The good: Headphone jack and volume control on front of right speaker; dual stereo inputs; respectable bass for a 2.0 desktop speaker; attractive design; most affordable Bose PC speakers.

The bad: Sound isn't as good as other computer speakers in this price class.

The bottom line: Bose's entry-level Companion 2 Series II speakers offer good bass and dual inputs--but they're not the best-sounding PC speakers in their price class.
