Great overall speaker for dedicated home use
||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been using this speaker for about six months now. Yes, it is pricey, but the audio is fantastic for a speaker this size and it is stereo. The highs and mids are very clear and nuanced, and the bass is surprisingly deep and punchy, again for a speaker its size. I personally love that artwork is displayed on the screen when using the Bose app to play music (for me this has been Amazon Music and SiriusXM through the Bose app - artwork doesn't really work when sending through Bluetooth). The Bluetooth connectivity is nice and the voice integration with Alexa is very convenient. The Bose control app works great and integrates almost perfectly with Amazon Music. The app controlling SiriusXM is a bit flawed as all of my saved favorite channels are not listed. Not sure if this is on Bose's side or SiriusXM? Meaning, not sure if SiriusXM limits the Bose app to only displaying channels that are not specific to SiriusXM's own app. This can be worked around by connecting to the speaker by Bluetooth and just using the SiriusXM app. Also, the ability to save specific SiriusXM or Amazon Music channels or playlists to the six Favorite buttons on the speaker is extremely convenient. All in all I have been very happy with the investment in this speaker.

Love the Bose 500
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought the Bose 500 for my husband for his birthday. He loves being able to ask for any song & then it is played. No fumbling through the music app & trying to search for his songs-just speak & its played. We love Alexa.

It's Bose. 'Nuff said
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.As with virtually all Bose products, this is a superb speaker. It has deep bass tones and sounds like a high-grade stereo system in a tiny package. Love the Alexa built in as this is what we run on but cannot comment on Google Assist. Have connected seamlessly to an LED smart TV as well to get much better sound. I know some challenge the superiority of Bose and have fans and detractors, but in some ways it is the same kinds of arguments people have when arguing Mercedes and BMW. There are just some great companies with great products and Bose is one. As with all Bose, expensive, but you really do get what you pay for in this world.

Awesome Sound Quality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The speaker has amazing sound with deep bass and can be connected to either 2.4 or 5 GHz Wifi. A bit expensive and wish Bose can be competitive with other speakers/brands.

Easy to use, sounds good.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The bluetooth was easy to sync up, although the app has to be opened before you can play anything from Youtube on it, for instance. Or maybe I haven't figured it out on how to bypass that. Sounds pretty good for its size.

Best sound.
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This has plenty of power and plenty of tone. Hard to believe you can get that much bass out of it. I went with the 500 model for the extra power and it was well worth the extra cost.

An upgrade worth the cost
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Out with my 2006 Sound Dock and in with a new 500 speaker-- I should have made this switch the day the 500 came out. Now, being able to move around the room and from room to room with the phone-- as opposed to having it stuck in the dock keeps me working / on task. That makes the slightly lower sound quality worth the cost. (Because let's be honest here... those Sound Docks had excellent sound.). With add on bene's of being able to pause the sound from 30 feet away while taking a call or changing the big band station to gansta rap when the daughter wanders into the room-- yeah, the 500 is a productivity and "cred" booster, for sure.
