Great sound for background music or surround sound...
These speakers are more for the places like the kitchen, or the den room.. Where you need to fill a small to large space with good sound and wide soundstage. In other words, wherever you walk you hear a loud, consistent sound from the Bose – in which is referred to as Stereo Everywhere speaker... Read full review »
Is this speaker really from Bose?
I got these speakers at circuit city from a friend as a gift. I connected it to my Denon AVR-1803 receiver with monster cables. I tried connecting to the front channels for testing the tonal quality of these speakers. I tried a few music cd's first and was really disappointed from the kind of sound... Read full review »
Great Value By Bose
I have been putting together my home theater system for quite awhile. I am a deal hunter. I am like those "weather chasers" that spend months tracking tornadoes... I have eternal patience to wait for the right deal to come along.
After I tested the Bose 161s at the Bose Store near me in...

Good Speakers For Surround.
I have these as my surround sound speakers and not as mains. One may think they are a bit over rated for that purpose, but with the rest of my system they are good for that purpose.
I have 2 PSB towers for my L/R, I use Infinity for my Front and Back Centers, and the Bose for my surround...

BOSE 161 review by Zeev from Israel.
I just bought these speakers yesterday and Iam very happy with them. This is not a normal speaker that is for sure.

Fulfills expectations.
We've been viewing our DVD collection on Bose Acoustimass Series II, meaning as stereo audio sound only. I finally convinced my wife that we could replace theater sound right at home with the purchase of these speakers. It took some time to properly install, about two days by one person, but, it...

Clean, Crisp, & Elegant Sound
The Bose 161 bookshelf speakers have provided me perfectly. Originally I has the Bose 141's, which are a step down from this speaker. The difference between the two: a stylish design and louder more proficient sound.

Bose 161 Bookshelf Speaker System (Black)
Enjoy rich, full sound from music or movies with this compact pair of sleek Bose speakers. Whether placed on a desk or bookshelf or mounted on a wall for use as surround speakers, these speakers are designed to deliver balanced, spacious sound with minimal or moderate amplifier power (10 to 100 watts per channel). Automatic protection circuitry keeps the speaker drivers from being overdriven, heightening the speakers' reliability without interfering with your listening. Bose 161 speakers in black If you'll be using them in a home-theater capacity, keep in mind that they're designed to blend seamlessly with the Bose VCS-10 center-channel speaker and any Direct/Reflecting Bose speaker system. Unlike conventional speakers, which radiate sound in a single direction, these speakers use Articulated Array driver positioning and Stereo Everywhere technology to deliver balanced sound throughout your listening area. Further, Bose's two 2.5-inch proprietary Twiddler drivers per speaker move more air from their small enclosures than similarly sized conventional drivers, creating a sound you'd expect from much larger speakers. Be sure to use the proper gauge (or thickness) of wire or speaker cable for the length required to run the distance between your amplifier and your speakers. If the length is 30 feet, use a minimum of 18 gauge (.75 mm), use 16 gauge (1.5 mm) for 45 feet or 14 gauge (2 mm) for 70 feet. Supplied custom mounting brackets offer a range of placement options. What's in the Box - Left speaker, right speaker, mounting brackets, self-adhesive rubber feet, user's manual.
