Keeps on randomly popping
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It keeps making popping sounds almost like blown but its not. I’ve researched it and the advice is to not get it next to other wifi devices, like smartphones and smart televisions. Um, it’s 2024 and its a home theatre system! I can’t get it farther from the TV. Good sound when working properly.

Posted .Hello Rob,
Thank you for sharing your experience with the Bass Module 500. I am glad to hear that you like the sound of your bass module but sorry you are experiencing popping sound sometimes.
You can have the bass module near other devices such as a smartphone or smart televisions. But if you are often experiencing this audio artifact, I would recommend connecting the bass module via the interconnect cable directly to your TV.
If you need any further assistance, please feel free to contact our support team: https://bose.life/contact Best regards, Lau - Customer Support

I would recommend this to a friendBEWARE
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.VERY deceptive sales & marketing by Best Buy. They sell this Bass 500 "Wireless" subwoofer, in a "package" with a Bose TV Speaker soundbar. No mention of other itmes needed for it to work ! But when you open up the Module 500 setup instructions, it simply states that IF you are using it with a Bose TV Speaker ( not a Smart Soundbar) then you need to connect it via a 3.5mm audio cable ( not included). A WIRELESS Subwoofer - that needs a WIRE ( not included) to work with the soundbar they packaged it with. What a bunch of crap - bait n switch.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendToo little for so much
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Simple interface with Bose Smart Sound Bar 300 using interconnect wire. App and setup too difficult to use for adjusting sound of Sound Bar. App interface should be via Bluetooth not Wi-Fi.

It's a woofer, do you need it...eh?
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought it because I had one previously with a Samsung system. If I had it to do all over I am not sure I would have spent the money. The soundbar is great itself. Maybe next time I would opt for the surround speakers instead. I just don't think it adds much to the overall experience.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendAll about that bass. No treble.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not as good of bass as I expected from Bose. Just ok.

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent product with brilliant product performance
I would recommend this to a friendOkay
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Kind of misleading. Not wireless to the speaker they show, it needs to be plugged in. It’s wireless just for Bluetooth from a phone for music.

Posted .Hi Mols, I'm sorry that you feel mislead.
The Bass Module 500 can be wirelessly connected to our Smart Home soundbars. It's just our non-smart products like the Bose TV Speaker that it needs to be physically connected to with a cable.
If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us - https://bose.life/2WZOG8Z.
