Written By chengbin Date Written Jun 29 2007 Summary I'm writing this review because I'm sick and tired of telling people at Best Buy(where I work) that Bose is a brand that steals your money and it sounds terrible. I can't believe what Best Buy sacrificed so much to be able to sell Bose computer... Strength nothing, except that it looked great Weakness TERRIBLE sound quality, weak,boomy,muffled bass, tinny highs, inaccurate midrange, excessively overpriced Bottom Line Don't buy it,it's a terrible buy. Terrible bang for the buck ratio. Absolutely actrocious performance. If you can still return it, return it. Avoid Bose at ALL cost!! Overall.... Great speakers but pricy..

Convincing Virual 5.1! Weakness Expensive, very expensive... _ few niggles. Bottom Line Excellent speakers for the customer who needs a set of 2.1 speakers that will look good, and have minimal footprint but offer a close to 5.1 sound. Sounds great, occasional issues. Should be more magical for the money.

It took a week and a weekend, renting movies, going through the iTunes library, etc to see if the C5 would impress me. I have to say that I am happy. It is a little pricy although I opted for the monthly... Strength Great sound, Good looking, easy connectivity, small and easy to hide the accoustimas.
