Bose Speakers
We put in these Bose speakers over the original speakers.  Of course they are amazing speakers and the sound quality is great.

Model 161 Bookcase Speakers

The installation is not prefect because I was in a hurry and only had a piece of 3/4 inch thick oak to use as a spacer from the wall.

The wall paneling is only about 1/8 of an inch thick and these speakers are a little heavy.  I put a piece of oak (a backing plate) on the inside of the paneling wall and bolted the Bose mounting bracket through the spacer and through the oak backing plate.  Because I was using bolts and not screws I have to have the original speakers out in order to get my hand inside the wall to hold the nut.  
The 3/4 insch spacer on the outside of the wall didn't allow me to put the original speaker cover on the original speakers.  I'll have to figure this one out later.

Anyway I got these speakers installed and they are GREAT.
