Jewish World Review Oct. 26, 2007 / 14 Mar-Cheshvan 5768 Bose speakers worth the cost By Mark Kellner http://www.JewishWorldReview.com | You can get a pretty good desktop computer and monitor for just under $1,000 these days. Why then should anyone spend another $399 for a pair of small desktop speakers? "The sound, my dear Watson," as Sherlock Holmes might have said after hearing the Bose Computer MusicMonitor, a product introduced this month by a firm whose name is rightly synonymous with high-quality audio. The first word that came to mind during a demonstration of the speakers at Bose's headquarters in Framingham, Mass., was "astonishing," particularly when it was revealed that two, not three, speakers were involved. To explain, I entered a room with a computer and what looked like two desktop speakers and a floor-placed subwoofer. That's not atypical for high-end computer sound systems. But in the Bose demo, it turned out the subwoofer was a hoax, just a box with lights and wires, no speakers or amplifier. The deep bass sounds I heard came from the small desktop speakers alone. True, deep, resonant bass, after all, comes from subwoofers and nowhere else in a speaker system, right? Well, right up until a few weeks back when the MusicMonitor system made its debut. The bass is as deep and resonant as anything I've heard from any computer speakers. It is a joy to behold. It is also a wonder to behold: the speakers, after all, are just shy of 5 inches high by 5 inches deep and 2.5 inches wide. The left speaker weighs 1.2 pounds, and the right speaker, housing some extra electronics, is 1.3 pounds. There's a small remote, and a carrying case is an option. Bose says the system can deliver high-volume output because of the way the speakers were engineered: "Thin but powerful neodymium transducers have 10 times the magnetic energy density of conventional speaker magnets," is the official explanation. That works for me. The sound is awesome. During our demonstration, Bose officials pointed out the speakers were engineered to complement today's desktop computer designs, which are tending more toward brushed metal than plastic cases. The speakers also won't damage a CD or DVD disc placed on top of them, another sign of careful planning and design. The unit can work with portable audio players and portable DVD players as well as desktop and notebook computers. With their small size and relatively light weight, they could go on the road as part of a traveling presentation setup, particularly with a 17- or 20-inch notebook computer. Although this normally doesn't come up in evaluating a product, the morning I spent at the Bose headquarters, which included hearing from company founder Amar Bose, helped convince me of the verities of this product — and any other — that the firm offers. A Massachusetts Institute of Technology engineering graduate and a professor of engineering there, Mr. Bose is that rare man whose curiosity and commitment to his craft seem to outweigh the mere pursuit of profit. His original work in audio grew out of an unsatisfactory purchase of an early "hi-fi" set from Radio Shack. Today, Bose speakers and headphones are the favorites of purists, and of many of the rest of us.
