Nice size
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Used for home theater
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Great Bose speakers!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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!

Perfect little speakers with great quality sound
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I needed small bookshelf speakers and these were the perfect ones. They sound great, fit perfectly in a small space and were reasonably priced. If you are looking for quality sound at a reasonable price for brand name speakers, these are the ones to get.

Fills the room
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wanted a set of speakers with clear sound to fill the room without cluttering the space. These replaced a pair of large floor old school Jensen speakers. These may not get as loud but they are loud enough for what I want. Movies and music in the living room. I'm not looking for dorm busters anymore.

Would buy them again and did
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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.

Excellent direct connect speakers WOW!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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!

SOUND AND STYLE ARE GREAT
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I BOUGHT THESE SPEAKERS TO COMPLETE A SET OF 4 SURROUND SPEAKERS FOR MY SYSTEM. THE BACK SPEAKERS WERE A LESSER QUALITY. NOW THE EXPERIENCE IS COMPLETE AT A RICHER LEVEL AND A GREAT PRICE! AS BOSE SPEAKERS SYSTEMS GO I CONSIDER THESE A BARGAIN!

Love the size!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Replaced big speakers and the smaller size was long overdue. Shape is great, only issue is the are designed to be hung rather than mounted. For stability. Still, they were the best choice for me in the store.

love the product
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the money you can't beat these speakers. They have excellent sound and are compact so they don't take up a lot of room but it doesn't affect the overall clarity.

Good Quality Expected from Bose
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased these speakers in store after listening to these and the Pioneer Andrew Jones speakers side by side. I am happy with that decision as these speakers give me the clear highs and midrange that I needed to accompany my 12" sub. I use these as my front speakers and I might pick up a second pair for the rears. At this price point, I have found none better.

Sweet music
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have set of 901’s so I purchased 4 of these to complete my surround sound system. Wow they are the best and was perfect for my apartment cause they don’t need a lot of room when placed on the speaker stands.

Great Bose speakers for the price

Great surround speakers
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.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!
