Bose's best bookshelf speakers are updated to provide an even more spacious, natural listening experience. They're great for stereo, or as a front- or rear-channel solution for home theater.Learn more about Bose products and proprietary technologies in our Bose Store.

I don't use rear surround speakers so I replaced my Infinity RS2 100 watt 6.5" poly cone bass with a 1/2" horn tweeter. I figured with the Bose 301's I could get a better phantom surround effect. It did improve on that aspect. I think my Infinity speakers had a bit better mid to high sound due to the poly cone speakers but they required a subwoofer. The Bose have paper cones so some audio produces a somewhat small muffled sound at high power. I lower the bass level on my Yamaha RX-V367 100 watt per channel receiver and use my 60 watt 8" subwoofer (which is a bit underpowered for the Bose's). I adjust the receiver's subwoofer setting higher but eventually I will replace the subwoofer with a more powerful one to better match the 301's. With my Yamaha 100 watt center speaker (very nice high audio) I now have a better sound setup for movies&sports and my music still sounds great, especially smooth jazz.
What's great about it: sound effect
What's not so great: paper cone drivers
I would recommend this to a friend!

Proudly display your satellite speakers with these Sanus HTB3-B1 speaker stands, which adjust from 26" to 39" high for optimal acoustics and provide cord storage to conceal and reduce clutter. Rubber feet and carpet spikes ensure stability.

Tube barrel connectors are plastic and break easy when tightening (should be aluminum), the speakers cause the tubes to eventually slip down if the barrels aren't tight ; base should be wider (stands are easily shaken on carpet).
What's not so great: tube barrels
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.
