I know this is a macbook pro forum but I guess I've seen them at the apple store and I'm thinking about replacing my $30 speakers from altec lansing they sound awesome for the price but I want something better on the desk.

So I was looking at the bose companion 3 or the 5 but they are priced at $299 and $399 which is a bit steep for computer speakers.

I know Bose is just over hyped but are they actually good? I usually like altec lansing for the price and might stick with that but anyone here have the bose and like them?
 
I have the Bose Companion 3 and really like them. They are mainly connected to my iMac, but I use them with my MBP also. I think I paid $249 for mine. I also got 2-$100 gift cards from Apple for Xmas so ended up paying only $49. For that I couldn't pass them up.
