I had an old pair of Bose 201's which still worked great I but needed to
consolidate after moving in with my then fiance. No, she did not tell me to
get rid of them. So, after reviewing the products on Crutchfield last
Holiday, I bought the Bose 161's and an Infinity PS28 subwoofer. We have
been extremely satisfied ever since with their performance and value. I
installed the 161's in the ceiling corners with the PS28 just past mid-room
near the TV. The components are powered by my trusty old Yamaha
receiver. Together, they fill our (we got married) 18'x14' living room with
great sound.

Bose 161 speakers |

The units look nice and sound good. I'm using them as surround speakers mounted to the ceiling, angled down. The bass may be a bit weak but they are just surround speakers, that's what the bass pounding woofer is for. There is a 2 piece bracket, one attaches to the speaker, the other to the mounting surface. Bose gives you a screw to attach the 2 brackets together to finish the installation. The screw is TOO LONG! I couldn't get it tight enough to hold in place. It's a #8 screw so I found a slightly shorter one that would make it tight but the head was to large so I had to grind down the head to fit in the plastic recessed hole. If you are just setting the speakers on a table they give you rubber feet, so you wont have this problem.

I have three sets of these and love them. Great sound for the price and they look nice. Well worth the money.
