This speakers are so awesome. I got these with the amp for the backyard. Two are literally enough for great sound and loud enough to be heard through out the yard. The setup was easy and the phone app was simple enough. I would definitely recommend these.

I purchased these to replace some older Yamaha speakers in our garage, that still worked but wanted to upgrade. These are no exception to the Bose standard, beautiful speakers with an awesome sound!! I was leery after reading some of the reviews but having a set of am10's in the house for many years, I knew they had to sound great. I was surprised at how large these are, they look massive hanging on the wall, but I am not complaining!! I also bought a new Onkyo receiver to power them and what a difference. They have a very sturdy mounting bracket that holds the speakers securely to the wall. The highs are very clear no matter what power level, it's like standing in a sound stage. They have plenty of bass also for the size of the speakers, overall, a very rich sounding set of speakers. I can only imagine how they would sound outside; in fact, I may purchase another set just for that. I wanted to get the black ones but weren't available at the time, no regrets with the white ones though. Very happy with the build quality and sound of the 251's, I would recommend them to anyone looking for an outdoor/rugged speaker with great sound!!

I have two sets of Yamaha speakers (Model:NS-AW390WH) and then added these to my backyard. What a difference they made. Brought a bunch of low end to the yard and can handle everything the receiver has to offer. The Yamaha's break up but the Bose just get louder. Might have to look into getting one more set of these to complete the sound system.
I'm running the system in 7 channel stereo, with the two Bose as the main fronts, pair of Yamaha's as the high front channel with the remaining Yamaha's as the rear set.

Bose quality lives up to its brand as extended to outdoors. But, also with the typical Bose price tag. For those that don't want to leave their listening experience to doubt that price definitely provides assurances. ...Not exorbitant, just a premium for quality.

This is my third pair of Bose speakers that I use in our outdoor garden. First pair was twelve years ago, second pair six years ago and now the third pair. We expanded the garden and needed the music. All of the speakers are still working and are left outside all year. It is a delight for us to work and enjoy the garden all year around even in the harsh Ohio winters. Who knows, the fourth pair may come next year.

This was an upgrade to my outdoor speaker setup. I originally had a soundbar with subwoofer, then a 5.1 htib but once I got those two installed, nothing else compares. Easy setup, came with brackets all I had to get was speaker wire. I also installed a volume control knob and they do not crackle during adjustment. Thank you boose!

This is my second pair of awesome speakers. Can’t go wrong with these. Great for patio and outdoor music. I added a small woofer to my patio and the sound is great.
Expensive but can’t go wrong.

These speakers are a great value for what they are. Great sound at a reasonable price. I looked at alternatives like Yamaha, Polk, Sonos, Sonance & Definitive and the Bose were the best balance of sound vs price.

I bought these speakers for my outside deck for my business. Bose speakers have been second to none for years. I’ve owned other Bose speakers for years. that’s why when I think of speakers, I think of Bose.

Initially got the 151s for a new patio installed and sounded very tinny with minimal bass. I exchanged for the 251s and noticed a huge difference. 251s have substantially more bass with a very full sound!!!

Had the 151se speakers for a few year and they started sounding tingy. What a difference! Sound is amazing and bass is good enough for the amount sound we need to play music around. Definitely recommend these. Enjoy!

I have upgraded my old Yamaha Outdoor Speakers in my patio area with these ones Bose Speakers; and altough the Yamaha Speakers sounds great; these ones are in a superior level by far; the bass are loud and free of any distorsion along with a best treble.

Have had them a few weeks out on a 35’x30’ deck facing a windy marsh, about 12’ high. The sound is phenomenal- what I expected from Bose and a bit more. Great frequency range for all types of music! Easy to mount on siding, easy to connect and disconnect with banana plugs. One flaw - the mounts allow for vertical adjustments only, can not direct them left or right so you have to fanagle your mount to set up a sweet spot on non-square spaces. If you think you need two pairs like I thought, you should try one pair first!

The 251's have been installed on the ceiling of my patio and are accompanied by a pair of Bose Freespace speakers around the pool. I have it all driven by the Bose amp and fed by the Soundtouch bluetooth integrated devices for a total Bose outdoor solution. Words just cannot express the sound quality and listening pleasure as an audiophile that my family and i are experiencing!
