What's great about it: Sounds really good
What's not so great: Difficult to get a perfect setup
Bose 301s are awesome speakers when setup correctly. I've heard many people knock Bose, but typically they've not heard them setup correctly. These speakers are backward reflecting, meaning they need a wall behind them to sound correct, and they can't be put flush against the wall. Once setup correctly, and balanced properly with a subwoofer for movies, the sound is pretty awesome.
Two issues I have with Bose: First is the push button connections. At the price of 301s, I really feel a better connection should be available. Second is the lack of a matching center channel. The Bose center channel would match the 161s well, but not so much the 301, neither acoustically nor visually.
This product has... Right size for my space, Good build quality
About me... practical, Tech savvy
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have 301 bose speakers with 161 bose speakers in rear, what would be a good center speaker?

My parents (who have 301s front and rear) went with a Polk center channel. It blends fairly well with the 301s, since the Bose center would not fit in the space available, nor did it sound correct with 301s.
