I ended up buying all 3 and hooking them up so I could test drive them. Then returned the ones I didn't keep. Hopefully someone in the same situation I was in will benefit from my review. If you can't decide I recommend buying the ones you can't decide between and test them yourself. SPEAKERS: Klipsch Promedia 2.1, Logitech z-2300, Bose Companion 3 BACKGROUND: Previous Speakers- Creative 6.1, think they were the original inspires. Sound Card- Creative x-fi Primary use- Gaming with limited music Volume- maybe max out around 10%. Live in multifamily complex and don't need a lease breaker to live up to its name. Ear quality- I'm no sound engineer so all references to quality of sound are just what MY ears heard. 6.1 V 2.1: You will...

Depending on your listening preferences, these could either be the best speakers in the world, or (as was the case for me) lacking and not worth the price. Aesthetically these speakers are unmatched. Elegant in appearance, I can't imagine an environment in which they wouldn't fit from a visual perspective. The satellite speakers have small footprints, and the included "puck" controller is slick and functional. When you actually start listening to these speakers things get problematic. In the high and mid-high frequency range the sound is quite amazing. You can hear things you can't hear with lesser speakers, like the "finger sound" of a guitar strum or the sound of a bow moving across a violin string. However, the low-midrange frequencies are plainly lacking. The deficient low-midrange output means that the bass sounds disconnected from the...

Since I was getting a great deal, I wanted the best/most expensive they had. It came down the bose companion 3 series II and the klipsch pro media 2.1 system. The bose would come out to $160 and the klipsch $110, both before CA tax. Now as you can tell, all bose products have a crazy mark up on them. I was able to get 90 bucks off, thats more than 35%! 35% off any electronic item is a lot. The klipsch on the other hand was about the same price amazon is selling it and was $145 regular best buy price- not much of a markup if you ask me. Anyway, long story short, I went with the bose. I brought it home and set it up very easily. Immediately I wasn't impressed. But after an hour of listening to them I began to appreciate them. For most music (classical, rock, r&b, etc.) they do a pretty good... Read more |
