    If you have money to blow, go ahead and purchase this. Within a year of purchase, there was crackling in the bass module. I called Bose and unfortunately my product had just finished the warranty year. So I paid $160 to have it serviced, but they said they couldn’t service it. They could only offer me 30% off another system. I asked the guy, why would I buy another system from you guys just to face the same problem. He didn’t have an answer. So, he said we’ll just send you back this broken speaker. I wish I had bought another Sonos system. So disappointing with Bose

      Hi Gibson! I'm very sorry to hear your Bass Module 700 stopped working after a year, due to a crackling noise. If troubleshooting doesn't help and your bass module can't be repaired either, an upgrade option is usually offered. In some cases, it may be possible to put the $160 towards this, so please give our support team another try and we'll see what Bose might be able to offer you here: https://support.bose.com/s/get-help-landing-page?language=en_US.

    Very disappointed with this product. Popping noise every time you are trying to listen to music or watch a movie. I bought the sound bar 700 and the module 700 and never again. For a product that cost this much, this obnoxious popping noise is not acceptable. Don't even think about reaching out to Bose because they don't even know how to fix their own products. STAY AWAY YOU ARE WARNED

      Hello, thanks for leaving your thoughts on the Bass Module 700. I am sorry to hear that you have experienced some popping issues with the bass module. A popping noise can be caused by interference from nearby Bluetooth or WiFi products. Moving the position off the bass module can prevent this, or using an AUX cord to connect the module to the soundbar.

    Years ago I had a Bose surround sound system and loved it. I purchased this just over the phone because of Covid and was very disappointed that the surround sound speakers wouldn't output any sound. So I risked going in and was introduced to the Definitive Speakers and wow they blow away the Bose system in my opinion.

    Would not buy another Bose product. Was extremely difficult to set up and would not connect to TV, so had to re-set each time I turned on the TV. Returned to Best Buy and purchased Definitive Technology unit. Much Better! Would not buy another Bose product.

    At first this was a great bass speaker. Now there's this annoying popping sound that never stops. For the money i paid i shouldn't be experiencing this problem. The speaker quality looks nice but can't enjoy watching a movie due to the annoying sound. Crazy part is many are complaining about the same issue. Boss needs to replace these with a working speaker.

    After multiple issues with the Soundbar 700 and Surround Speakers I am returning those and this base module. 1. Remote does not properly control non Bose products. 2. Soundbar loses connection with surrounds daily even though the status light is white indicating they are connected. Requires disabling the surround in the app, unplugging the sound bar to power cycle and then enabling in the app again to restore surround output. 3. Sound bar lost HDMI arc audio on multiple days forcing TV to take over. Power cycle required to restore. 4. Sound is good but not great, could be better. Overall too many frustrating issues and poor quality for the given price point of the system. I like Bose products generally but this is my first and last Bose Soundbar combo.
