Are you a confirmed movie buff? Do you own a 6.1-channel surround sound receiver? Is a premium-quality TV in your future? Then why not take your dream home theater system to the next level, with speakers that deliver the ultimate Bose(R) home theater experience. The Acoustimass(R) 16 Series II home entertainment speaker system - with 6.1 channels of audio - works with your components to deliver superior, lifelike sound from small speakers that blend easily into your décor. And the new sleek horizontal center channel speaker complements the look of today`s flat panel displays. The powered Acoustimass module delivers our deepest, most potent low-note performance, while six Direct/Reflecting(R) cube speaker arrays provide lifelike, dramatic surround sound - with added realism from the sixth channel directly behind you. From thunderous special effects you can feel as well as hear, to the subtle drama of whispered dialogue, to "you-are-there" excitement of the big game, these Bose speakers bring visuals to life. Switch to music, and the sound remains full and natural. Great video deserves great audio. Complete the picture with this high-performance, 6.1-channel home entertainment speaker system from Bose.

Acoustimass(R) speaker technology reproduces low notes clearly down to the very low frequencies for dramatic movie special effects and lifelike musical performance. Hide the module almost anywhere - the deep, low notes appear to come from the compact cube speaker arrays.

Direct/Reflecting(R) speaker technology delivers more open, spacious sound throughout the listening area. You hear enhanced surround sound
and exceptionally lifelike stereo with a larger soundstage. New horizontal center channel speaker complements the design of the latest flatpanel
televisions.

Bose(R) patented signal processing circuitry compensates for the human ear`s reduced sensitivity to low frequencies at low volumes. You hear
the proper balance of deep low notes, even at very low, late-night listening levels, while dialogue and speech sound natural.

6.1-channel surround sound This speaker system takes five-speaker solutions a step further by including a rear center surround speaker for even more realistic, cinema-like experience. Connect them to your receiver and enjoy dramatic special effects from six small cube speaker arrays and a hideaway module that blend effortlessly into your decor.
Direct/Reflecting(R) cube speaker arrays Experience rich sound almost anywhere in the room, not just in one small "sweet spot" with this proprietary Bose technology. The cube speaker arrays blend reflected and direct sound to re-create much of a live concert`s natural spaciousness.
Acoustimass(R) module This Bose breakthrough works in concert with the small speakers to deliver the full range of sound. The module delivers the clarity of pure, low-frequency reproduction down to the lowest frequencies, even at the loudest levels. When the module is tucked behind a curtain or chair, all of the sound seems to come directly from the small cube speakers.

Looking for HI FI? Stay away from these speakers!!

"I guess I did not enough research before buying these speakers, do NOT make the same mistake. I have these speakers conected to a DENON 2808CI and have tested with with bluray discs, super audio cds and DVDs. You will NOT find any frequency response, output power, impedance or any performance data in the product manual, just the weight and dimensions. Now that I have them I understand why, if people were able to..." Read Full Review »

"Use for Home theater, playstation3 gaming, classical music (radio and CD). Acoustimass 16 is a superior HT speaker system with clear, powerful sound and aesthetic design. But then again, I own many Bose products, from aviation (pilot) headsets to wave radios, I didn't expect anything less. "
