Hello everyone,

I want to buy a good 2.1 system for my computer. I found 2 speakers that could suit me, the Bose Companion 5 or the Bose Companion 50 (bought used). What do you think? Is there a real difference? Which one is the "better"?

Best regards,

    Hello,
    Two tests that can help you make your choice:
    https://www.lesnumeriques.com/enceintes-pc/bose-companion-5-p17699/test.html
    And:
    https://www.lesnumeriques.com/enceintes-pc/bose-companion-50-p37825/test.html
    Know that the 5 is replaced by the 50 and there are few differences, the price will determine your choice

      Thank you for your response. I saw this test and indeed the 5 is rated better than the 50, but then what is there in addition in the 50? Better sound quality? Just a space-saving advantage because the subwoofer is a bit smaller?

      But you're welcome, and you understood everything, and not so sure that the 50 is better... ;)

      ok I think I'll take the 5 then, I saw some for 240 euros with a 3-year warranty (second-hand), I think it's a good deal
