Bose 161 Speaker System - 27027 (Sold As Pair)

A versatile option for both music and movie listening, these small speakers provide balanced stereo sound in an elegant design. They work with both your stereo and your home theater components and blend easily into practically any décor. Available as a pair.

Technology drives the performance

Beneath the sleek exterior of each 161™ speaker resides the technology that makes these speakers so versatile. Two proprietary Twiddler™ drivers in each enclosure help the 161 speaker rival speakers of much larger size. Articulated Array® speaker design positions those drivers to provide a large, consistent sound field so you can enjoy Stereo Everywhere® speaker performance from almost anywhere in the room.

Performance and versatility

In your dorm, office or living room, you'll enjoy the rich, full musical performance these small speakers can provide. And they are also an ideal choice for home theater applications. Connect them to your existing home theater system and enjoy Bose sound from your favorite movies.

When you add the 161 speakers/SA-2 amplifier package to your Lifestyle® system, you can enjoy Bose quality sound in any room in your house. Easy to set up. Simple to use. With select Lifestyle® systems and the SA-2 amplifier, you can even have music in one room, while the kids enjoy movies in another, at the same time, from the same system. With custom mounting brackets, these elegant speakers offer a range of placement options throughout your home or office. And if you already own Bose 161 speakers and a Bose® Lifestyle® system, Bose SA-2 amplifier is very easy to add.

Product highlights:

  • Articulated Array® speaker design reproduces lifelike stereo sound over a large listening area.
    • By precisely positioning the drivers inside the speaker cabinet, an Articulated Array speaker design can provide a large, consistent sound field. This allows for a more cinema-like experience with Bose VCS-10® center channel speaker and 161™ speakers, and for more even sound coverage with Bose 251® environmental speakers.
  • Twiddler drivers These proprietary drivers generate more air movement from a small enclosure to deliver the kind of performance you'd expect from much larger speakers. Enjoy rich, full music from sleek, easy-to-place speakers.
  • Stereo Everywhere® speaker performance gives you rich stereo almost anywhere in the room.
    • Because many conventional speakers radiate sound directly into the room, you hear balanced stereo sound only in one small "sweet spot."
    • Using patented Bose® Direct/Reflecting® speaker technology, Bose Direct/Reflecting® speakers deliver a natural balance of reflected and direct sound. You hear balanced stereo sound almost anywhere in the room.
  • Custom brackets provide easy mounting for stereo or surround sound use.

Outstanding sound from elegant speakers.

The Bose® 161™ speaker system offers the ideal combination of outstanding performance and elegant, unobtrusive design. You hear rich, full music from speakers designed to blend easily into any room décor.

Two key technologies allow 161 speakers to bring you such high-performance sound from a small enclosure. Two proprietary Twiddler™ drivers in each speaker help deliver the kind of performance you'd expect from much larger speakers. And Bose Articulated Array® speaker design enables Stereo Everywhere® speaker performance for lifelike stereo sound almost anywhere in the room, not just in one "sweet spot."

The performance you want. The versatility you need.

The 161 speaker system can be used as stereo speakers or as surround sound speakers, making them a nice option for home theater applications.
And with their slim, elegant appearance and custom wall mounting brackets, 161 speakers provide a number of placement possibilities throughout your home.
