    We purchased this on the promise from out Best Buy associate that I would be able to pair this system with my IPad . This was just as important as wanting to use it with our new 70" TV. Unless I am missing something, we have not been able to pair this with any devices. Really disappointed with out purchase for this reason. It idols out out very nice quality sound.

    I really love this Bose CineMate 15 Home Theater Speaker Symtem. The clarity is amazing. I wanted a simple system, rather than a complete surround sound system to go with our new 65" Sony TV. I first purchased a different brand 2 speaker system from another store, but was not happy with it and returned it after one day. I then looked into the different Bose systems and decided on this one. You cannot go wrong with a Bose product. I would highly recommend it.

    You just can't beat Bose I really love the sound from this system. One of the best features is the adjustable sub you can increase or decrease the bass to no base at all for everyday TV

    Great system. Clean/clear/crisp. Simple install. Remote setup was easy and controls everything well. Only thing missing is Bluetooth connectivity, but the sound is worth not having it.

    I purchased this system instead of a sound bar alone and it sounds great. The Speaker fills the room with great sound and the bass making watching movies a theater experience. We also use it when playing video games, just makes the gaming experience even better. We love it.

    Despite not having the latest technology in this Bose sound bar. Bose has produced some of the deepest room filled bass sounds and reproduced great surround sound with its sound bar!

    Bose is always on top of the line with it's related products. With CineMate 15, you get best sound in a small size. Wish provided digital optical cable has bit more length!

    Good acoustics. Mediocre subwoofer

    Bought this unit from bestbuy and was thrilled initially. Connection was easy. The way the speaker connects to the subwoofer is rather awkward. The thicknessmakes it a bit difficult to hide the extra wire. Sound from the speaker was crystal clear. But the main downside is the subwoofer. It lacks the punch. A big remote control, no HDMI connectivity is another flaw. Only connects through optical cable. Remote is sturdy but rather useless and there is no display to let you know the volume level. Movies sound better than music mainly due to a mediocre subwoofer. If I were to upgrade to a better product, the next in line is almost double the price and that's without the sub woofer. Bose really needs to get things right.

      Thank you for taking the time to write your review. We are glad that you found the system easy to setup. We are happy to clarify that because the system doesn't process a video signal, there is no need for an HDMI connection.

      There is a bass adjustment knob on the back of the Acoustimass module to allow you to tailor the sound to your preference. If you would like us to help take a look at your setup or would like help programming the remote to control other devices, we'd be happy to assist. You can reach us at 1-800-379-2073. We are open from Mon. – Fri., 9 AM – 9 PM EST. Bose

    Not a room filling sound that I was expecting. We do have a very open floor plan where the TV and speaker unit is placed, so that may be the issue. Was able to sync up the remote to one other device but not the others so this adds yet another remote laying around. For the price you should be able to sync wirelessly, but I knew that going in!

    Great sound from a soundbar that's only 2 feet wide. My only complaint is that it turns off automatically, thus requiring the remote to turn it on each time. Frustrating... and as far as I can tell, there isn't a way to disable the auto turn off feature.
