Product Description

 
Bose 161 speakers offer outstanding performance in a design that blends into your decor. Engineered to reproduce sound over a large area, they bring you spacious stereo almost anywhere in the room - with a fullness and impact you might expect from much larger speakers. And all that performance from a slim, elegant design means 161 speakers work equally well in a music or surround sound system.They fill your room with crisp, full sound. You can't help but notice Bose 161 speakers - for their looks and their performance. An Articulated Array speaker design features two 2 1 D2 " Twiddler drivers that are angled to reproduce lifelike stereo over a larger listening area - instead of one small "sweet spot".

Review: 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 this speaker really from Bose?

Date of Review:  Jun 4, 2003
The Bottom Line: Kindly compare these speakers at this price range with others at the store itself and you will know what i mean.
Review: 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...
