Product Description
Whether its a mid-day picnic or an at-home concert under the stars, the Bose® 151® SE outdoor speakers deliver the full stereo sound you want. 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.

BOSE IS OVERRATED & OVERPROCED.......2007-05-18
BOSE is completely overrated and consistently does not live up to all the hype for their significantly overpriced speakers. I tried these speakers and was so dissappointed they were immediately returned for a much cheaper pair of Pyle's (@ only $84 compared to $279). The BOSE speakers do not even compare to the cheap Pyles that have a much higher Power rating (350watts vs only 100watts), better frequency response(40-20KHZ Vs. 670-20KHz), and even higher sensitivity (94db Vs. 89db).
The specifications for BOSE products are NOT advertised prior to purchase. Geeh. . . I wonder why? The reason is, by doing a direct side-by-side comparison, the BOSE speakers just don't match up & can't hold their ground to a much cheaper speaker since they perform so poorly. After all the advertising and sales gimmicks, the bottom line is that these BOSE speakers cannot even provide the performance of a speaker that is a fraction of the cost. The Bass response was weak & non-existant even for an outdoor speaker and could probably be blown very easily.
Why Pay the outragious costs for an inferior product? BOSE is for the uneducated buyer, who falls for all the sales gimmicks and buys speakers based on their looks alone and completely ignores the performance characteristics.
Bose, always more than you expect.......2007-02-08
I don't know how Bose technology works, but I certainly can HEAR it and it's the Best!.

Very tinny.......2007-06-16
I oculdn't believe it when I listened to these in the store. Bose speakers for famous for bass response. But, these were horrible, with almost no bass. The sound is very tinny. They certainly are not worth this price.
I am warning you. Don't buy these unless you hear them first.

Good!.......2007-02-20
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.
Bose 151 SE Outdoor Speakers.......2006-11-09
These speakers are being used on a large screened porch. I purchased them primarily based on the Bose reputation and their size. They fit very nicely on a shelf at the end of the porch and most people do not notice them. I was very surprised by their great "indoor" sound.
Satisfied!.......2006-05-08
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.

My Favorite Thing.......2006-12-09
I found out about hend held scanners shaped like markers from an airport catalogue. I showed it to my husband and said, "Could it have been true, it would have been the best thing since sliced bread, but there is no way it would work without a glitch!"
Well, the result of these words, hasty and untrue (as for the second part, I still can back up the first one!), was one of the best Christmas gifts I have ever received. My first scanned words were the ones from the manual. I read the manual over, changed the hand preferences (I am left-handed, and I definitely like using the C Pen better the left-handed way), and I was good to go. By the end of the holidays I was scanning passages from books I was reading (an overjoyed compulsive quoter!) -- in two languages.
Somewhere in the manual it said that you are not supposed to expose the tip to stress and banging -- made sense to me since that's where's the scanner is. The manual suggested carrying it in a pouch, and so I did.
It's been almost a year since I was using my C Pen, mainly for quoting from the books (helped IMMENSLY with preparing quotes for my classes and academic writing) and translating while reading. I would not like to use it to copy an entire page but it works great for a specific quote. I use the dictionary feature a lot as well. It is great to read in a second language, highlight a word and have a translation immediately.
The only problem I have ever encountered was with long quote files. Sometimes the C Pen just would not scan one more line into a file that is already rather long. Starting a new file solves this problem.
I would definitely recommend the product to anyone who needs to work with books and likes to quote. I would recommend Russian-English-Russian dictionary that comes with it -- it's a good dictionary. it's been my favorite thing. My husband certainly has a challenge to meet this Christmas.
Wonderful Little Gadget & 21st Century Dictionary.......2006-01-02
I primarily use my C-Pen 600C for two tasks: (1) reliably scan short snippets of text, and (2) carry a full dictionary and instantly look up words. The best I can say about this gadget is that it just works. In this sense, it is just like an iPod, a piece of technology that solves a very concrete need using common-sense design principles and the right level of technology. C-Pen's interface is extremely intuitive thanks to its rolling button and pervasive use of contextual menus. The scanning of regular text with regular fonts is flawless. Finally, I cannot overstate the usefulness of the dictionary. I do a lot of reading in random places, like in bed before going to sleep, and using a regular dictionary takes too much effort. Using my 3-ounce C-Pen is a different story. I can carry it in my pocket and look up any word with 2 clicks and one pass of the scanning tip. It takes 3 seconds. I highly recommend this gadget.
A Great Value Growth Device!.......2005-04-26
I bought it on Amazon 3 years ago for about $60. Later we found it's not that useful. Then I came back to Amazon and noticed that it's used unit selling for $150.
Wow! I ended up make almost $70(after Amazon fee) by keeping/using it for 2 years. I never seen such a value growing product. I should have invested my money in this. Amazon should be renamed Amazing!
Cool gadget.......2005-02-12
I really like this pen. I am a college student and find it useful to alleviate highlighting and marking in text books. All key info is easily stored and reviewed for tests.
The software that comes with the pen is not Mac compat. and I find it to be really buggy in windows. Terrible software.
Battery life is pretty good. And pen works very well. I can really capture what I want with ease - it is pretty accurate too.
Not very cool looking design, but people do stare and wonder what in the world I am doing when I use it. I have found increased efficiency with the pen. I have owned it for two months.
Never got it to dependably synch.......2004-11-02
Boy, what a great idea. I bought the pen because I do a lot of research and wanted to be able to take notes which could then be downloaded into my computer for editing. That way, I could quickly find and incorporate source material into my own work.
As one reviewer mentioned earlier, my scanned material was messy after transfering it. I didn't mind that too much. It's still one heck of a lot faster than retyping handwritten notes.
It's my inability to consistently synch that caused me to give up on the CPen. I was only able to get the pen to synch once using infrared. This was after spending way too much time holding the pen at various angles and distances from my infrared port.
I was able to synch using the cable but I only attempted to do this once.
When I bought a new notebook computer (a Dell Inspiron 300m) I first downloaded and installed CPen's XP update. I had zero luck getting an IRR connection. I was able to connect via the serial cable exactly once. After that I was never again able to successfully connect.
I communicated by email with CPen's support. Their replies were prompt and friendly but ultimately their advice was pretty basic...the tech equivalent to "take two aspirins and call me in the morning."
I suspect the problem is XP systems based (aren't they all) and because I have minimal knowledge of MS operating systems, this means hiring a rather expensive tech support person to help. There have to be some less expensive alternatives to transfering notes to the computer.
Bottom line: A terrific concept but CPen doesn't deliver. Some folks can tolerate quirky products, I'm not one of them. Reliable, affordable OCR just is not a reality yet. Or if it is, I haven't yet found that product.
