The Companion 20s are one of the best computer speaker systems I've ever tested, and represent a true bargain at this price. Of course, without a subwoofer they don't provide the extra deep bass to satisfy hip hop lovers, but for all other material, they're completely enjoyable.

As you'll read elsewhere, they fill a good sized room with sound. I'm more impressed with how good they sound at low volume.
There's no need for a loudness button. They sound so detailed and unusually punchy at low and medium levels that I don't feel the urge to crank them. When I do turn the volume wheel up, they remain clean and very, very loud.
There is a point where the laws of physics kick in and the Companions begin to exhibit speaker compression, cabinet noise, rear port chuffing, loss of treble detail. I just can't imagine the need to push the volume that hard, they get plenty loud before
these artifacts appear.

Any extreme design like this is going to exhibit... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome speakers!, August 16, 2011

This review is from: Bose Companion 20 Multimedia Speaker System (Personal Computers)
I have been searching for computer speakers that I would be satisfied with for some time. I was exposed, through a former job, to high end audio equipment and since then have been very particular with what I purchase. Most often speakers don't sound quite the same at home as they do in the store, so I brought home the Bose Companion 20's to try out. It didn't take long to realize they were not going back. I listened to classical, jazz, pop, c&w, etc and was pleasantly surprised. I've always had a subwoofer in the past, but found it wasn't necessary with these speakers. It was worth the wait for me.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bose Companion 20 Multimedia System, August 13, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
This review is from: Bose Companion 20 Multimedia Speaker System (Personal Computers)
First off, it is nothing less than an honor to be one of the first (if not, the first) to review this item on amazon itself. By far, these are the best computer speakers I have ever listened to. It does exactly what it is advertised to do, bring room-filling sound. Yes, the Companion 5 may bring more bass, however, these bring very warm bass for not having ANY subwofer attached. For the price, these are worth it.

Overall, this is definately 5 stars for being what it is. I keep telling my readers on amazon to judge a product for what it is, not for what you wished it could have been. If you are looking for computer speakers without a subwofer, these are for you!

Better sound through research. :)
