Bose MediaMate® 2 Speakers

Pros: Versatile, put out great sound, relatively inexpensive.
Cons: Boxy, volume controls can be hard to maneuver.

This past weekend, my husband Bill and I were at the Fort Belvoir post exchange (PX). I had a bad case of cabin fever and desperately wanted to get out of the house. I needed a new watch, a new CD wallet to accommodate my expanding karaoke CDG ...

Pros: None
Cons: Poor quality sound, Ugly, Poor configuration

The Bose MediaMate are the entry-level computer speakers offered by Bose. Bose spends a lot of time marketing their products, and tries to make people think that Bose speakers are the best in the world. The Bose MediaMate are some of the ...

Pros: everything, including sound quality, packaging, sound quality, aesthetics, and did I mention SOUND QUALITY
Cons: none

I have been impressed with Bose sound products before, but I was not aware that Bose actually made a sound product I could afford! When I saw these speakers at Sam's Club for around $60, I didn't need anyone to convince me to get those and replace my ...

Pros: Lower price, Great sound, Two inputs, and they look nice, too!
Cons: None

More and more people, myself included, are using their computers as entertainment centers. A modern home computer combined the functions of a CD player, DVD player, and MP3 player. Not to mention computer games! So why do most people have their...

Pros: Great sound, compact size, no need for sub-woofer
Cons: Difficult to turn volume control, no on-off switch

For their size, these speakers sound fantastic, and unless you need to rattle (or break) window panes - their bass output is just fine for PC use. If you need more power or bass, then you might as well just go the full route and buy a stereo system with...

Pros: good low frequency response for such a small enclosure
Cons: lack frequencies below 50 hz, cuts out at high volumes but protects speakers

I have listened to most computer speakers available to the average consumer (Klipsch, Harmon Kardon, Altec Lansing, Creative Labs, Logitech, etc.) and the Bose Mediamates are the best if you want stereo sound that presents a clear image and relatively...

Pros: Crystal clear sound, every nuance of the recording is captured
Cons: A bit expensive

I have to say, I've been a Bose fan since 1970 or so when my big brother used to blast his 901's until the windows shook in our house! I've never actually owned any Bose product myself though, until yesterday when my MediaMates finally arrived!

Pros: Excellent sound, tasteful design -- very clear and crisp, especially for computer speakers.
Cons: No subwoofer, so not-so-great bass response

I've owned several pairs of computer speakers in my life -- a cheap pair of Altec Lansings, a subwoofered pair of Monsoon MM-700s, and this pair of Bose Mediamates. I would recommend these speakers more than any of the others, primarily because they are...

Pros: Great looking, Great Sounding, Affordable, Easy Setup
Cons: Short cables included

I worked at Best Buy last year and wanted to get some new computer speakers. They carry a lot of basic logitech stuff and other apparently weak sounding speakers. I noticed the Bose and tested them out. I found the sound to be incredible for the size ...

Pros: Great quality sound. Dual inputs for more than one audio source.
Cons: A bit pricey

I am very picky about sound. For example, I returned my TV after I had bought it just because the sound sucked and bought a different more expensive TV just for the sound. For most people they wouldn't have cared. But for me, it's important, in order to ...

Pros: INCREDIBLE Sound. Great Build Quality. Excellent Design.
Cons: No 'off switch' - But that's it!

I heard these when I went to the Bose Factory Shop to buy my Wave CD (See my other review on this) and was impressed - a few weeks later I bought them!

The design is great and allows for two separate inputs, which you can mix via a 'fader' on...

Pros: Compact, excellent sound
Cons: Price, but you get the best

Well, I bought these speakers at Best Buy, so I was able to test multiple systems. I always had my eyes on the Bose, since I have a Lifestyle system and have found it to be bulletproof.
The price range is a little steep for some, but all medium...

Pros: Stylish choice of colors, deep bass, easy set up, headphone jack in front.
Cons: Too many cords, not portable, sound quality, is it really a Bose product?

I bought these speakers to compliment my new Dell Laptop. I usually use headphones for computer use, but sometimes, such as for DVD movies, I like to use speakers. I listened to these in the Bose store, and they sounded good. I decided to get them, and...

Pros: Everything Kicks a$$
Cons: Price is a bit steep, but your paying for the best.

History:

Very Recently my current multimedia speaker set was not enough for the games and mp3's that I have been playing on my pc. As a result I decided to use the pass down theory and give them to another family member in need and grab a new...

Pros: Great sound, and price. Sleek and stylish on your desktop.
Cons: No on/off button. No big deal turn volume all the way down

I bought these based on the name only and knowledge of their other great sounding Bose products, and ...
