Logitech G560
Score: 83/100Rankings

The Logitech G560 is a 2.1 PC gaming speaker system delivering 240 W peak power and immersive LIGHTSYNC RGB lighting. Its heavy subwoofer and older Bluetooth 4.1 limit flexibility. Ideal for desk-bound gamers who prioritize powerful sound and visual effects.

The Bose Companion 2 Series III is a compact 2.0 desktop speaker system delivering clear mids and highs with TrueSpace processing. Its main trade-off is the lack of Bluetooth and modest bass performance. Best suited for budget-conscious PC users who prioritize simplicity and sound clarity.

Professional reviewers commend the Companion 2 Series III for delivering a surprisingly wide and clear soundstage for its size, thanks to Bose's TrueSpace digital processing. They acknowledge its solid value for desktop audio but note the modest bass and lack of Bluetooth as drawbacks compared to newer multi-channel or wireless offerings.
Consumers consistently highlight the speaker's straightforward plug-and-play setup, clear mids and highs, and compact desk-friendly design. The most common complaints revolve around the limited bass depth and the perception that the maximum volume can be restrictive for louder media.

Professional reviewers praise the G560 for its thunderous bass, crystal-clear drivers, and immersive LIGHTSYNC RGB that reacts to in-game events. They highlight DTS:X Ultra's accurate positional audio and the convenience of Easy-Switch multi-source handling, while noting the system's PC-centric focus, occasional software hiccups, and a subwoofer that can be overly loud at full tilt.
Everyday users love the powerful bass that shakes their desks and the eye-catching RGB lighting that syncs with games, finding Bluetooth pairing easy for music playback. Common complaints revolve around the subwoofer's excessive volume or humming, the lack of individual satellite volume controls, software setup issues, and the bulky weight of the subwoofer limiting placement options.
