    I have had some nice soundbars in the past, but the Bose soundbar puts all of them to shame and other audio systems I have had, as well. The clarity of sound is unbelievable.

    Pro: Great sound. Looks gorgeous. Supports Dolby Atmos. Cons: The app is buggy and it's the only way to adjust any settings. Doesn't support DTS. It can be a pain when you have different devices connected to it via Bluetooth.

    This sound bar is powerful! It give really clear surround-sound. If you move it you need to reconfigure the settings so don’t lose the funny headset, besides that it’s worth the money.

    i love Bose products and this sound bar doesn't disappoint. every sound is clean and clear. it seems to cast sounds all around you even without the back surround speakers. whether it's action films gun shots and explosions or the moans and slaps of a grown ups only film, the smart sound bar brings them to life.

    After purchasing a new Bose system and having issues with installation, the team at my Local Best Buy was able to quickly replace it with a different one within minutes. I was able to install it with no issues and I love the sound quality.

    Let me begin by saying that bose makes outstanding speakers. When they work, they sound great. Because of how heavily bose relies on what seem to be terrible apps, the speakers rarely function as desired. It will not often connect to my slightly older revolve speaker. It never connected to both of them.. Once more bose ruined a great opportunity with a mediocre app. If it didn't sound so good when it does work, I would have returned it. Probably too late now.

    the Bose 900 Soundbar with separate sub, is an industry standard. Have had many different Bose products in my, lifetime and this one is true to form. I use it as my main audio sound system, as well theater quality sound when paired with my new Sony 55" screen. Geek Squad, came, installed, left . All good. thanks

    Amazing, set up at first was frustrating but I didn’t follow the directions, I plugged the sound bar and sub at the same time and I think it jammed it up, unplugged sub waited for bar to be setup and then it worked like a charm!!! The sound on this is unreal!!!

    This new Bose Sound bar coupled with the 500 Bass module provides better sound coverage than my previous Bose sound system. The depth of the sound is also there with great highs and lows.

    Purchased this soundbar because I like Bose speakers and this particular model supports Atmos. Also purchased the 300 base module and rear surround speakers to complete my home theater sound system. I am going to get rid of my older Yamaha receiver and use my TV as the HDMI switch to drive my home theater and listen to music.

    A bit disappointed with the output from the Bose 900. The first Soundbar I splurge on and I was left wanting more. The 900 should be priced around $500-$700, not a penny more. I had to return my first one as the adaptq headphones were not operational. After finally getting the Soundbar going, I was not impressed. Regular tv watching, isn’t great 6/10. As for movies, 7/10. I don’t get the full Dolby Experience that was advertised. I’d say it’s best for listening to music, I’d rate it 8/10 at best… overall I’d rate the Bose 900 at a 7/10. I also have it pairs with 2 Bose 700 subwoofers, and those, I have ZERO complaints

      Hi Izzy,

      It's great that you love using your Bass Module 700s with the Soundbar. While I understand the audio experience hasn't been what you were expecting. To make sure you're getting the best, please ensure that it's connected by HDMI eARC to your TV for full Dolby Atmos experience. Make sure to follow the steps here https://bose.life/3mxgu6x or reach out https://bose.life/38DNELy for help.

    Its a very good sound bar, not quite as loud as the employee had it sound at the store (not a surprise right?). Still not bad.

    Great sound. Crystal clear. Bought with 700 base module. I listen to music through Alexa, which is in integrated. Dolby sound while playing tv through sound-bar is spectacular. I have been a Bose fan for over 30 years, and this soundbar does not disappoint.
