Product Information

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".
