Bose - 161™ Speaker System - Black

Bought these a year ago and still love them. I shopped for speakers to fit into a new TV console that had small openings for my stereo equipment. These fit perfectly ( 4" deep X 4" high X 11" wide ) and look really nice, Sound is good, too. You can't go wrong with Bose.

I like the clear crisp sound that comes from these speakers i use two of them for my surround sound and 2 my for my mini stereo system

Im using these for my rear surround speakers for my home theater system. I have them mounted on the wall pointed downwards towards the center of the room. They look nice, feel solid and high quality. I have not tried using these and stand alone shelf speakers so I cant tell you how powerful or loud they are. For surrounds they work great, I would not use these without a sub if your looking to hear that bass given they only have 2.5" drivers. Got these for $169 at best buy so for the money I cant complain. If they were say $50 more I would take em back or pay a little more for a higher end bose model.

Greetings! So I already have a set of Accoustimass 10 speakers in my home and decided to upgrade my Home Theater system from 5.1 to 7.2. surround sound. I needed one extra set of speakers and wanted the excellent sound of BOSE! These speakers are stand alone and hook directly into the receiver and NOT to an accoustimass or sound processor. I used them as my rear set of speakers (separate) from my Accoustimass 10's. WOW the sound is fantastic. And because they are a little bit bigger they really kick the deeper sounds needed for the rear sound. They are clear and very clean sounding as you would expect from Bose. The price I thought was a little cheap for what your getting. Very nice and attractive set of speakers for the money!

I Decided to purchased these Bose speakers because of its sound, size and price. The sound is very crisp, clear and very loud for its size. They don't project a lot of bass but that didn't bother me so if you're looking for something with more bass, I recommend you buy a subwoofer. Overall, good purchased!

These Bose speakers deliver excellent sound and acoustics. They do not take up much space and can be mounted also. The price is very reasonable and one gets the benefits of Bose technology.

We already had one pair to replace some black bose 101,s. We moved up to a 7.1 surround system and these blend better with the ceiling. The sound for the size is typical Bose ..sounds very good for surround speakers... I wish there was a little more clearance between the ceiling and the speaker so the tilt could have reached the next slot on the bracket. But that is minor.

We were looking for good rear speakers for our small living room, one that is wired so we can connect to our Yamaha av receiver to improve our videoke party and movie watching. These speakers were great for the size and great for the price, more so it's the best we've found because they're powerful and they're bose. More importantly, they were so easy to mount on the wall that 2 ladies could do it by themselves. This is absolutely a good buy!
