Great sound for background music or surround sound...

Pros Loud & clear. Unobtrusive but produce a pleasing sound. Suited to background music...
Cons Expensive for what they are. Enclosure can rattle.
Recommended it? Yes

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 »

Pros Sleek design, will fit in any decor.
Cons Very ordinary sound.
Recommended it? No

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 »

Recommended it? Yes

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... Read full review »

Good Speakers For Surround.

9 Helpfuls 10 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Size is compact, clear Bose sound.
Cons None for what I use them for.
Recommended it? Yes

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... Read full review »

Cons Dont expect from any small sized speaker ground shaking bass.

I just bought these speakers yesterday and Iam very happy with them. This is not a normal speaker that is for sure. I use a T amp (which is an amazing little amplifier) to power these speakers and the amp is connected at the moment to my computer and Iam enjoying every moment (even as I write this...

Recommended it? Yes

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...

Cons Will never find a Bose product truly DISCOUNTED.
Recommended it? Yes

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.

These speakers are perfect for every variety of music. They hit the... Read full review »
