    The Bose subwoofer is perfect as expected. Makes watching movies sound like you're in the theater.

    Well, this base module is really good overall. Of course you will pay a bit more b/c you are paying for the bose name, but I really like this device. It's small, compact and looks premium. Definitely adds on to completing a nice experience when watching a movie.

    It was a quick setup and sync to my Bose soundbar. This subwoofer adds the low-end boost I wasn’t getting with the soundbar alone, and its compact size helped win approval from my wife.

    Paired this with the smart ultra soundbar. Was putting it in a small room so wanted a small unit. Puts out a great sound in the small space. For a large room may lack power to pack a punch.

    Absolutely an amazing sub for its size. It fills the room well, not overwhelming but extremely surprising. If placed in the correct space/corner you will be happy you purchased it.

    Bose 500 Series Subwoofer Gives you a Big Bang

    I was going to purchase the 700 subwoofer which cots much more, but I'm glad I didn't. This 500 series is more than enough to to get great bass in my room. I still think that the Bose subwoofers are way overpriced at their regular price. I was lucky to get this one during a real good sale. I would have never bought one at regular price.

    I purchased this bow 600 Soundbar along with 500 subwoofer from Best Buy directly via an open box item. I had heard this sound bar at that Daytona store and was very impressed. The sound it emits is incredible. It does lack in some days but trebles and mids are fantastic with the height speakers. And voices are clear. This Soundbar also surprised me because it also has two side shooting speakers along with the two height speakers so the surround sound it can produce just by itself is incredible. The subwoofer along with the soundbar creates more bass and it has widen the Sound Stage and sounds very immersive. I also just bought the two Satellite rear speakers to go with it and this is a complete Dolby Atmos experience for me I am very impressed and I've always thought those was the best but never could afford them before. Now that I can I don't feel like I wasted any money. Sonos is close but I was still prefer Bose. Is some of this doesn't make any sense, understand that I voice text this and try my best to quickly proofread it

    I am impressed with the power this unit provides for its size. Excellent sound quality and it pairs perfectly with my Bose Ultimate Sound Bar. The unit is easily sat to the side out of the way but the sound is big.

    Amazing performance for such a compact unit. I paired mine with a Bose Soundbar 700. All worked great with each other in blue tooth. Fast forward 2 years this month and my subwoofer just stopped working. Won't power up. Called Best Buy and have an appointment to have Service look at it. I am keeping my fingers crossed. Hard to believe Bose quality would only last just 2 years. I will circle back with the results of my problem.
