“do you need special speaker connectors on back of 161's?”

1-4 of 4 Answers

• No. The only port on the speakers is for standard speaker wire. You cannot use banana connectors on these. The standard is to simply input the bare wire.

• No you do not. These speakers are very easy to connect to the back and to a receiver or sound system. I suggest you go to the Bose Web sight to see a complete set of pictures that show the connections to the speakers. Its a very nice set of speakers for sure. Especially for the money. I use them for the rears on my 7.2 Surround sound home theater system. I hope that helps.

  I would recommend:

• The Bose 161 speakers offer a bare wire connection point on the back of the speaker.

• No, these speakers use standard speaker wire using the bare ends that connect into the rear of the speakers. An upgraded speaker wire is recommended, but no special connectors are required.
