Bose 151 SE Environmental Speakers, Elegant Outdoor Speakers - White

Did plenty of research online and the Bose 151 continuously showed up as being some of the best outdoor speakers in the market. Debated between the Bose 151 and the Bose 251 but the Bose 251 are much larger in size and overall footprint so I ended up purchasing the older Bose 151 speakers. The Bose 151 speakers arrived within a few days of placing my order. Speakers were in great condition and came with mounting brackets. The brackets allow the speakers to be rotated but not tilted. Ended up purchasing additional mounting brackets to tilt the speakers. Speakers were mounted underneath my deck and provide plenty of great sound. Sound quality is clear and has a decent amount of bass. Ordered and installed in Spring 2021.

These put out a lot of sound for the Bose price. Within the Bose ecosystem, a good value. They sound full and I really like the "Stereo Everywhere" feature since I am using them outside in my backyard. They appear to withstand the elements pretty well so far. I have them installed under my awning. You can install them vertically or horizontally which is nice -- but note for the Stereo Everywhere feature they must be installed horizontally. The actual install brace is super easy to put up, unlike other speakers I have dealt with in the past. Everything you need for installation is in the box, except the speaker wire and amp and source.

Used these speakers to complement another set of Bose that I had purchased a few years earlier in completing my outdoor sound system for around my backyard pool. After taking measurements for proper placement, able to put them up in minutes. Mounted the two (2) pairs under an eave and a small 2nd floor balcony. One is attached to Zone 2 of a Yamaha RX-760A receiver with the other connected to a SONOS AMP (Gen 1). As expected as with the prior owned set , these provide excellent sound quality and fill a large outdoor space quite well. Couldn't be happier with the purchase.

I installed these under a covered porch about 8 months ago. They sounded great until a couple of weeks ago when I noticed some crackling/distortion from one of the speakers. It appears that these are suffering a similar fate of so many others. What gets me is that 1) they were not used very much and certainly never at high volume; and 2) they are completely protected from the elements. There’s no reason a speaker made to be used outdoors should fail after 8 months of gentle use. Contacted the seller for a refund, we will see how it goes.

I bought these pair of speakers for outdoor usage. They blend in perfectly with the window / door trim of the house. Mounting them was very easy. They are up and running regardless of rain or sunshine. I love the sound, which is typical Bose. They are a statement and surely the envy of the neighborhood. I couldn't be happier with the purchase. I hooked them up to a Micro-component receiver from Yamaha, and this combination works perfectly, sound is great! I hope they don't let me down as one will be always concerned about exposing electronics to the elements. I would definitely buy them again and can recommend them.

The sound quality is good. The bass response is a bit weak, but it's better than some of the reviews indicated. Overall a good speaker for an outdoor area. Priced right..

I first purchased this pair of speakers for my back deck 14 years ago. A couple of weeks ago - there was a slight "crackle" you could hear in each speaker. I was surprised the exact same speaker was still available, same bracket - everything. I always read reviews on everything I purchase - normally the bad ones more so than good ones. I was a little hesitant - but ended up purchasing them. I installed them the day they arrived. They have the same crisp sound - even when I turn them up pretty loud. I normally don't write reviews - but after reading some of the negative ones - I felt compelled - because these are great looking and great sounding speakers

Although I have not Hooked them up outside yet, when I Hooke them up inside the house they performed very well. Great sound !!! I think they will be everything I expect out of them, besides that I know for a fact that Amazon would back these up, even if they did not I know Bose would as they have done it in the past for my 901's that they replaced. There comment on the 901's was we could have made them better in the 70's. It was in the early 90's when they replaced them for a minimal charge of $350. Equalizer and all !!

Bought these speakers for the backyard. They are connected to a receiver that supports AirPlay so we have the same music everywhere in the house and around the pool. Speakers come with mounting hardware; installation is incredibly simple and speakers are solidly affixed to the wall. Sound quality is on par with what can be expected of Bose. Very happy of this purchase. Shipping was quick as usual; thanks Amazon.

Excelente sonido claro y nítido. Las bocinas no las usé para exterior, las usé como bocinas L y R para mi home theater Pioneer VSX522 en mi sala. El resto de las bocinas (la central y las de surround) son JBL y en general el sonido es impresionante. El material de las bocinas es de muy buena calidad y el sonido es excelente sobre todo en medios y altos con buen brillo. Para los bajos tengo un subwoofer Onkyo que completa toda la instalación.

bonjour très bonne qualité et service amazone au top !!

These speakers are perfect for my current application.

do 5 stelle per la celeberrima amazon. perche le prime arrivate presentavano una rottura e x 300€ un po mi girano ma amazon impeccabile in giorno dopo ha rispedito subito un altra confezione perfettame integra.. le casse suonano pulito x uso all aperto giardino piscina ecc ovviamente nn ci si fa un concerto.. ma restano comunque ottime per il fatto che posson stare all aperto forse costano cosi anche per quel motivo
