The Creative Gigaworks T20 that we earlier had with us provided quite a sound experience even though it was just a 2.0. The BOSE speakers we have today are built to do just the same. It's just a pair of tiny speakers which look not too large compared to the home theatre satellite speakers we get from BOSE. Could these speakers be ones that you'd pick or rather want to pick if you had the money? If you think so, read on and find out for yourself.

A very rich relative has purchased these from Delhi- ,more for show off- but one has to be crazy to spend 20k on these speakers, i think my Altec Lansing ATP-3 is much better & only 3k. Anyways the best computer 2.0 speakers i have heard are the M-Audio Studiophile AV 40 Powered Speakers- just 8k and far far superior to these Ivy league Bose speakers.

I hope my relatives don't think I bought these merely to "show off." Honestly, I paid the premium price (for exceptionally good sound) mostly because of their minuscule size. I have searched and searched for speakers small enough to fit the space where I need to place them, and no others are even near this small with such a big sound.

Frazier: This was an excellent review written by you. Its very honest and totally unbiased. Must say - you have surpassed Ameya dalvi in that skill :) Keep up the good work ! Being a speaker enthusiast, i'll certainly buy that gigaworks T20 someday, thanks to your adice.

I guess Mute button is really not required. ON / OFF switch should be sufficient for that purpose. If could turn it off completely if you want to put it on Mute. That way you end up saving precious energy. :)

...This comment is really outrageous and hillarious....like saying that cars dont really require brakes...the ignition key should suffice..that way one can end up saving precious (and expensive) fuel

ha ha ha... you guys crack me up!!! Although i have to agree that a mute switch is very different from an on/off switch, that "car without brakes" comparison was a little too much dont ya think?

Bang-on mate ... the mute button would have somehow the same function, that it does not produce any more sound. And to the even clearer analogy of the Brakes, please check the purpose of the ignition on an Automobile and for what the Brakes are used. In that sense even these speakers have the brakes and accelerators with the volume up and down buttons.

You can get a Altec Lansing MX5021 THX Certified system for 6.5K, rather then spending for such expensive product. The Remote on MX5021 has all the controls for terible, bass, volume & suspend/on-off.

Please check spellings before posting a review. It is "BASS" and not "BASE" which means low frequency sound. throughout this review it is spelled "base" !!
