So I'm looking to set my house up with some speakers (just 2 actually). My current goal is to have my computer set up in the basement with an
airport express upstairs with two small speakers plugged into it for general music listening (casual get-togethers, light parties, background music for cooking etc). I'm not really looking into having an amp as i'm trying to keep the clutter to a minimum. As the airport express has a 3.5 mm minijack for an audio input, my current search has lead me to computer/multimedia speakers.
The set I'm looking at currently is the
Bose Companion 3 System retailing for around $300. I know Bose has a rather negative reputation among audiophiles for putting more money into marketing than it's actual equipment, so I thought I'd ask if anybody has any other recommendations? Personally every bose speaker I've ever heard has sounded fine and I'd have no problem going with this set-up, I'm just curious.
A couple points:
- I know there are similar wireless speaker products out there, but as I said I'm trying to minimize clutter so I'm
just looking for 2 speakers
- In this instance, size matters. I'm looking to keep the speakers relatively hidden (behing a plant or something) which is why the small size of the Bose system interests me
Any help that could be offered would be greatly appreciated!
