My bad. I was thinking of the 201's. Sorry. So much for my Forte' lol. I would like to say though that another thing to consider to get the best sound out of your speakers is an amplifier. It used to be that bose never listed their speakers power ratings but I would check and see if the ones of your choice has a rating. Speakers are listed with RMS power ratings (continuous). Mobile stereos are listed in Peak power ratings which are much higher than their actual RMS power. A stereo that is rated at say 45 watts per channel will actually only really produce about 10 to 15 watts RMS. This may be too low to get the best sound out of your speakers and underpower is often the actual cause of a speaker to blow due to the distortion caused when you turn your stereo up and the speaker moves irregularly.
