    I bought it to add some bottom to my sound touch 300 bar. Set up was a breeze and the look is nice. Unfortunately, my open floor plan was too much for it. Although you could tell it was there, the difference was negligible. I tried it against the wall in multiple places, off the wall, behind the couch, under the couch, in the tv stand...almost everywhere I could think. I tried it in my bedroom just to see, and it was a huge difference. There is no need in that room because we do not watch movies there. I returned it about a week after buying it.

    Incredible sound for such a small subwoofer, the fact that there are no unsightly wires is a great bonus!

    The Bose subwoofer definitely complements their soundbar 500 and 600 Atmos model for small rooms. The app needs to be updated big time but their products are amazing and easy to use

    Great bass, paring with my Bose 900 sound bar took a few attempts, though. Bought it on sale from Best Buy for $100 off list price. I wasn’t sure if it was the right choice since the sound bar is the top of the line and the sub is an “entry” level. But it sounds fantastic and is easily fine tuned with the Bose app.

    I’ll start by saying I got an open box model for about 45% off. It was labeled excelled condition so I jumped on it. I give it 5 starts considering I did pay the full price. Overall very pleased. It will NOT blow your socks off and make the house shake. But that’s not what I want it. I feel like it’s a great sub to have on all the time. Not over the top to bother anyone still sleeping in the mornings and loud enough to make music and moves more enjoyable.

    I was never a real fan of Bose subs in the past. I bought this to accompany a sound bar. I have to say this generation of Bose subs are awesome! This really brings out the bass and has made the best sound bar experience I have had yet. I own Yamaha, Samsung, and Harmon which all have a good sound experience, but this goes from good to great!

    If you want the really deep bass and depth of sound, especially for movies, then this is necessary in a good entertainment system. Its worth the investment, even if it costs just as much as the soundbar.

    Wireless bass? Well, I was skeptical. But after setting this up with the Bose 600 soundbar, pleasantly satisfied. Follow the app and it connects pretty easy. So far so good! (Reminder to reset your Soundbar before you try connecting after an update, found that to be less hassle)

    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.
