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. | | | Features: | |
• 2-1/2 full-range, glass-filled speaker cone delivers reliable, high-quality sound reproduction across all audible frequencies even under extreme temperature and weather conditions
• Glass-filled polypropylene cabinet provides added yearlong protection against weather extremes
• Adjustable weather-resistant brackets provide secure installation to most surfaces, and allow the user to direct the speaker for optimum coverage outdoors, indoors and in marine environments horizontal or vertical
• Engineered and tested to withstand snow, rain, salt and temperature extremes of -40? F (-40? C) to 158? F (70? C)
• Withstands humidity and fog

 Satisfied!May 08, 2006
By Ronald A. Luycx
I bought these speakers for my deck area last year. They were super-simple to install and worked great out of the box. They have a great sound and push good volume to my entire back yard. I could even disturb the neighbors if I wished to do so. :)
These speakers have survived the weather quite nicely. One of the speakers gets pretty wet by the gutters overflowing when we have heavy rain, and they have both had snow on top of them, and they still work fine this Spring.
I am considering buying another set for my screened porch area. The only reason they don't get a "five star" rating from me is that the ease of installation also equals ease of deinstallation. I have yet to find an outdoor speaker that has locks or a special tool to keep them from being easily stolen. At this price I would like a little extra security.

Good speakers, great warrantyNov 23, 2005
By D. C Frezza
Short and sweat.... speakers sound very good. As with any pair of Bose speakers not the most bass or treble, but lots of mids. I'm sure there are better/less exspensive speakers for outside, but I've not found any with a 5 year warrany. And that's the only reason I bought them.

 Lasted 3 summersJun 19, 2011
By Jason
Bought these after having a very positive experience with the Bose Wave stereo. I set them up in my backyard every summer and brought them indoors every winter. The sound was OK and I did receive a few compliments from people - then all of a sudden the sound got distorted. I thought it was my receiver (as it was small, cheap and under-powered) so I changed it. Still distorted. Then I thought it was my speaker wire - so I changed that too - still distorted. So the the only answer is the speakers. So the sum of my experience is this: Paid over $300 - treated them with care - got 3 summers of OK sound - now I have to shop for new speakers. Definitely not a quality product and I won't be buying Bose again.

 Good!Feb 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.

Love These Speakers!Dec 20, 2008

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!
