    I'm not an audiophile so this is for average people. I recently bought a new tv with a Bose soundbar. My salesman recommend I not get the lowend sound bar so I could upgrade to an added subwoofer. So I got the 500 model soundbar. . After I got it home I wasn't satisfied with the sound, so I got a subwoofer. I got the subwoofer and a 3.5 mm cable so I could plug it in instead go through the hassle of addig it with an app. I plugged it in to the soundbar and the subwoofer and it worked. I'm happy with the sound. I think it's a good safe buy unless you want to read The Absolute Sound for two years before making up your mind.

    Delivers on sound for a great room with a vaulted ceiling without blowing out your ear drums or disturbing the neighbors. (Room measures approximately 400sqft.). Automatically pairs with the Bose soundbars. One recommendation that I learned is that the wifi connectivity works but causes distortion... pair the sub with a 3.5mm mini-jack and the problem goes away.

    So I recently got a Bose soundbar 600(amazing atmos) and that soundbar doesn’t come with a subwoofer unfortunately. So I decided to see what this nice little sun would add to the overall great sound. And I have to say, that this little subwoofer that is actually quite light was amazing for its size. Great low frequency response deep and clean bass all the way around. I originally got this as an open box for a more reasonable price. And at first the bass wasn’t accurate and sounded off like something might have been wrong. But I know that you sometimes have to “burn in” certain speakers and subwoofers as well. This is normal. So I decided to give it a day and yes it loosened up and became super accurate with movies, tv Shows and music as well. I do recommend this if you want to take full advantage of your nice new Bose soundbar. Just know it’s pricey. But like many know it’s still worth it for sure.

    The bass is definitely bumping. I really love this. Everyone that enters my house had to hear a few somgs, and by the time I was done they said they was gonnna purchase the Boss sound set. Maybe I need to do Boss stock's?

    This is open box item in excellent condition and all the accessories and box included and i like it and easily pair of mu soundbar 550 in my bose music app and the only con is that some kind sound vibration came in the speaker box and i don't about, but overall everything works fine and very deep and loud base in my bedroom and the best part is that i saved some money buying open box comparing to new one.

    I love this bass module. Ive had my fair share of surround sound speakers with subwoofers. Everything had always sounded good but when you put it next it to this bass module 500, theres no comparison. This bass is deep, clean, precise and room filling. Now I’m no audophile by any means but Im a HUGE fan of loud music and watching my movies like I’m in an actual movie theatre. This sounds great…I highly recommend this and the soundbar 900 together. I plan on adding the bose sorround sound speakers.

    Added this to complete the sound quality of soundbar 900. Small and easy to install compare to my old AM10. Provides both wired and wireless but wireless works good too and is clean with no need for the sub to be next to sound bar

    The Bose subwoofer is a great companion to the Bose soundbar 500. This adds the extra lows that completes the soundbar, to give you a great home theater experience. The subwoofer has a premium look and feel to it, all while making it small enough as to not take up much space. It also matches the soundbar really well, in terms of design. The set up is very simple and straight forward. Once you get your soundbar set up through the Bose music app, it prompts you to add more devices. Simple push the button on the bottom of the subwoofer, and voila, connected. The bass is very clean. It maintains good lows, without distorting or bottoming out. Weather you're listening to music, or watching a movie, the subwoofer provides that extra level of bass that completes the experience. The subwoofer makes for the perfect companion to the Bose soundbar 500, which I highly recommend getting the two together. This really adds the complete package to a home theater.

    Deep Rich Bass

    Hi am using this with the bows 500 sound bar and wow old do they make up hair. Clothes that you adjust the equalizer in an app on your phone see you can turn the bass up and down as you like as well as the volume and I have to say for this thing and I know it’s close but it is incredible. I am a particular person where it comes to using my audio quality and this far surpasses any sub woofer I have ever used in the past which is quite a few. I honestly cannot see the reason for someone to not purchase both of these together.
