A versatile option for both music and movie listening, these small bookshelf stereo 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, they are also included in our 301®/161 home theater package and our VCS-30® home theater package.

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 book shelf 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 bookshelf stereo speakers offer a range of placement options throughout your home or office. And if you already own our 161 speakers and a Bose® Lifestyle® system, our SA-2 amplifier is very easy to add.
