Breaking out the Bose speakers...

About nine years ago, my husband and I made an impulse purchase of Bose companion speakers for my PC.  They were damn good speakers and they didn't even cost that much.  Back then, we were pretty broke... I doubt we paid more than $100 for them.  I put them away, though, when I got my Mac because I erroneously believed they wouldn't work with my new computer.

Since I have rediscovered singing, I suddenly realized how much I missed having good speakers on my computer.  I often watch videos, play games, and listen to music on my computer.  While the internal speakers are good enough for a lot of that stuff, they have limitations when it comes to listening critically to music.  So last night, I pulled out the old Bose speakers and managed to hook them up to my machine...  and whoa!  They made a big difference.

Later today, maybe I'll play around with them and try recording with new speakers, which will hopefully amplify things a bit.  Should be interesting to see how it all turns out!
