The Klipsch Promedia 2.1 speakers offer the truest audio reproduction within a large margin of their price range, and they blow the pants off any Bose system.
If you are battling between this system and any of the Bose Companion sets, take into consideration that none of the Bose sets have tweeters, only full-range speakers and a woofer. What do tweeters do? Sizzle, cymbal splash, open-air sounds, and sparkle. Hearing the Klipsch set is like hearing real instruments.
Not that Bose sets are bad, but most consumers tend to think they are the cream of the crop, while audiophiles have known for years they are only the most cleverly marketed speakers.
The Bose low-end reproduction has nothing on Klipsch either, which will render some of the richest bass sounds you have ever FELT.
You cannot go wrong with these speakers for music, movies, home theater, or any consumer application.
What's great about it: Absurdly incredible sound for this price range, and audio reproduction at a level most people have never heard.
