The sound of the game you play is one of most important aspects. You might lose or you might win what really matters, is the fun you get while playing! In order to have fun, one must immerse into the environment of the game. Just try to imagine a horror film and its fullest part of suspense.
Would you be able to feel that suspense in the absence of the background music? Probably not and the same goes for your favorite game. What good quality does is help you enjoy better the movie, the TV show, the game! One of the desktop speaker systems that can make you feel that way is the Bose Companion 20 Multimedia Speaker System. Every producer presumes with his products; let’s see if the Bose Company has got it right this time!
The Bose Companion 20 Multimedia Speaker System is one of the surround sound systems that offer digital sound experience. What we are basically talking about is two speakers and a control pad. The first thought of any of us goes like this: two speakers and no subwoofer, it is not worth any attention! Tempting thought, but the trick is this particular one: built two speakers that sound like twenty! And the Bose Company did it!
Bose Companion 20: elegant and effectiveThe looks of the two speakers, as well as the appearance of the pod control is not at all amazing. For those of you that still remember the old computer speakers, these one will seem familiar. The pod control allows you to adjust the volume and set it on mute (and there is a touch button for that).
The performances that the Bose Companion 20 Multimedia Speaker System can reach are pretty amazing, considering its size and the lack of the subwoofer. Actually, it is nice to know that you can always plug the headsets or that you can connect the speakers to your tablet or IPod. All these are things that I consider nice.
Bose Companion 20: Back ViewShould you buy the Bose Companion 20 Multimedia Speaker System? They are, indeed, very suitable for intermediate gaming level, but I would not recommend this system for a professional gamer since there’s no 5.1 surround sound and you might need a higher volume to ‘feel’ the games you’re playing.
The price of the Bose Companion 20 Multimedia Speaker System is listed on at around 250 US dollars. What you get for this money is a set of louder and more refined speakers (in terms of sound quality), but I do not find that they provide good money value since you can purchase a more powerful THX certified 5.1 surround sound system for the same amount of cash.
