Q: QuestionIs this speaker. Bluetooth. Connectable to any device(4 answers)
A: AnswerI tried to connect it to my smart TV and was unable to do so. I read that Bose does this on purpose so that you have to buy their entertainment system, which is pretty pricey, sounds good, but not good enough for the price. I believe you are able to pair this speaker with other Bose speaker though.Answered by Techdad

Bose home speaker 500
am rarely disappointed by Bose, and this is definitely no exception. This compact speaker is crisp and clear and has the added ability to connect to Alexa and my Prime Music account and Pandora. I have it connected to my phone via Bluetooth. The volume range is amazing, filling the room with great clear sound. I have been looking for a high end speaker to use as music therapy, so the ability for high volume with clear reproduction was essential. True Bose sound in a ver compact design with true stereo reproduction

ONE OF THE BEST “SMART SPEAKER”
This speaker is very easy to set-up, is a little “pricey” but i promise you is worthy. The sound on this beauty is amazing, plus you can adjust it how ever you like; (less bass, more treble, etc). The look is very professional, but that’s nothing new when it comes to BOSS SPEAKERS right ?, the front display presenting the album cover for the song you’re playing makes it even better !! On top of that, now you can have “ALEXA” play your favorite song from “APPLE MUSIC” before you could’nt do that, and since i’m an Iphone owner, that makes me very happy !!! In defition, [SOUND : 5 out of 5] - [LOOK : 4 OUT OF 5] - [ EASE OF USE : 5 out of 5] can’t wait to buy a soundbar for my Tv now!!!
