Customer Review: Waste of Money
Wow, I had heard Bose speakers were supposed to be cutting edge, and absolutely incredible. Maybe their other speakers are, but these computer speakers are shockingly bad.
It’s not that they are THAT bad, but the fact that they are soooo expensive and not worth even half of the price, is the part that amazes me.
The first ten seconds I plugged them in and turned them on, I knew I was in trouble: The most immediate thing you’ll notice is the shockingly poor balance between the treble/bass frequencies. Any voices you are listening to (song lyrics, video game dialogue, etc) sound muffled and muddy. If you are listening to music, the bass completely overpowers the higher frequencies and destroys the balance. And to top it ALL off, there is no treble or bass knob so you can adjust them. REALLY poor design choice, if you ask me.
I’m taking these back tomorrow and getting a pair of $30 speakers. I’m sure they’ll work just as well.
