Bose® Companion® 5 Multimedia Speaker System
The Bose® Companion® 5 multimedia speaker system is engineered to deliver the excitement of surround sound content right at your computer—without the clutter of five speakers. Just two small speakers and a hideaway Acoustimass® module deliver much of the audio performance you'd expect from a five-speaker surround sound system. And a single USB connection is all it takes—no special software, hardware or sound card upgrade necessary.

Now you can enjoy an enveloping sound experience without enveloping yourself in hardware. Proprietary TrueSpace® surround digital processing circuitry enables two elegant desktop speakers and a compact module to put you in the middle of the action. And the experience is developed especially for computer listening, so you're right in the middle of the music, the game, the special effects.

The Companion 5 system features a handy, all-in-one control pod to keep speaker volume control, single-touch mute, headphone jack and an auxiliary input all within easy reach. Speakers are mounted on stands enabling superb performance and more usable desktop space.
