Product Description
Whether its a mid-day picnic or an at-home concert under the stars, the Bose® 151® SE outdoor speakers deliver the full stereo sound you want. Youll enjoy the same rich sound of music grilling on the porch or doing a little gardening around the backyard. Inside each speaker are three 2½-inch full-range environmental drivers arranged in an Articulated Array speaker design. This provides Stereo Everywhere speaker performance for consistent sound in a much wider area than conventional speakers provide. You have the freedom to listen to your music wherever you are, not just in a small sweet spot where your music sounds best. For more than ten years, Bose outdoor speakers have stood up to some of natures worst conditions. Theyve been tested against snow, rain, salt and temperature extremes of 158º F (70ºC) to -40º F (-40ºC). We even put them through 1,200 hours of salt-fog testing, which is twice the demanding Marine Industry Standard. And to further underline their toughness, we added a five-year transferable limited warranty. Outdoor speakers should reflect the same attention to detail you like throughout your home. Bose 151 SE speakers are designed to blend smoothly with horizontal eave, clapboard and roof lines. Sleek, compact cabinets accentuate your outdoor environment instead of imposing on it. New adjustable, weather-resistant brackets allow you to hang the speakers vertically or horizontally, depending on your preference.

2 out of 5 stars Not quite "all weather" (3rd pair just failed)   July 20, 2010
Ken D. Thomas (Denver, CO United States)
0 out of 1 found this review helpful

Easy to install and great sound for my patio. However, my third pair just bit the dust - the diaphragms have cracked from exposure, making the sound unbearable. The previous two pairs met the same fate.

In fairness, the speakers get 90 degree heat and Sun all summer and our Colorado winters are quite cold and dry... but that's why I bought all weather outdoor speakers.

Bose has been accommodating (the store where I bought the first pair wouldn't even replace the first pair), but this is just getting old. I'm going to try a different brand.

Bose 151 SE Environmental Speakers, elegant outdoor speakers - White

I purchased these speakers as a previous customer return at a great price. They were easy to set-up, even for me, a 54 year old widow. I bought them to replace ancient tall standing speakers and think they are great. Currently I am using them in a moderately large room, they create a BIG sound. I don't notice the tinny sound that others have complained about. It is my intent to move them to my screen porch when I install a surround sound system, for which my house was pre-wired. This, and all my previous experiences with Bose Speakers (computer speakers are also owned by me) has been great!



1 out of 5 stars Very tinny   June 15, 2007

I oculdn't believe it when I listened to these in the store. Bose speakers for famous for bass response. But, these were horrible, with almost no bass. The sound is very tinny. They certainly are not worth this price.

I am warning you. Don't buy these unless you hear them first.



1 out of 5 stars BOSE IS OVERRATED & OVERPRICED   May 17, 2007
IamKrusty (Detroit, MI)

Where's the Bass?!? BOSE is completely overrated and consistently does not live up to all the hype for their significantly overpriced speakers. I tried these speakers and was so dissappointed they were immediately returned for a much cheaper pair of Polk's. The BOSE speakers do not even compare to Polk's that have a much higher Power rating (350watts vs only 100watts), better frequency response(40-20KHZ Vs. 670-20KHz), and even higher sensitivity (94db Vs. 89db).

The specifications for BOSE products are NOT advertised prior to purchase. Geeh. . . I wonder why? The reason is, by doing a direct side-by-side comparison, the BOSE speakers just don't match up & can't hold their ground to a much cheaper speaker since they perform so poorly. After all the advertising and sales gimmicks, the bottom line is that these BOSE speakers cannot even provide the performance of a speaker that is a fraction of the cost. The Bass response was weak & non-existant even for an outdoor speaker and could probably be blown very easily.

Why Pay the outragious costs for an inferior product? BOSE is for the uneducated buyer, who falls for all the sales gimmicks and buys speakers based on their looks alone and completely ignores the performance characteristics.




5 out of 5 stars Good!   February 19, 2007

I bought these speakers for $109 on sale at my local Circuit City for my patio. I was going to buy speakers for my patio, but I wasn't intending on buying Bose because they were so expensive. When I saw these, I bought them. I think there's 3 4" drivers (speakers) in each cabinet (enclosure) The bass isn't quite suited for Nelly or any other rap artist, but it is quite suited for Kenny G. or Jewel. They aren't quit like the 251'S, but almost like them. They're better then Polk, Yamaha, or Boston Acoustics.
