    Awesome sound and clarity... absolutely needs the the bass module 700... hits so hard and deep.. only complaint is the software update that they don't warn you about and don't give a progress bar to show you how long is left.. mine took 3 HOURS!! and i read some people took longer.. my other problem is the Bose app you need to control and adjust the settings... for something over $1k when you get the sub and Soundbar, this app is not very responsive and sometimes requires me to restart my phone to connect to.. THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE.. Bose is supposed to be a premium brand and for the app to be wonky is pretty bad...

    I am replacing a top of the line Samsung soundbar that was expensive and is huge and glitchy. It constantly lost connection. So I replaced it with the Bose Smart Ultra Soundbar and immediately was impressed with the MUCH better sound quality and the ease of setup and use. The sound is excellent of course but its also more intelligent in that it enhances the words and manages the backgrounds against them. Im really please and highly recommend this next generation soundbar.

    We had a hunt for a good surround sound after our previous Bose surround went off to the big entertainment center in the sky. We were told Sonos and Sony were better, and bought them both returning them each within hours due to flat non immersive sound, and this was the third system we bought in one day. We went back figuring we would have to settle for interpretive dance instead of sound going forward when the salesman pulled this heavenly gift from the back. It wasn't on display, we didn't know there was a bar above the 900. It was more costly, but can you put a price of peace of mind, yes. Apparently $799 during the holiday sale. It has the IQ feature, which is the headband you get to wear and sit in five different spots in the room where you will have people sit or where you want sound to be directed. Old school bose classic. By the way, for those that don't know, sonos won't allow you to calibrate unless you own an iphone. Bose says hold my beer, we treat all people equally, just wear this silly wired headband for one minute and get the best sound of your life. Then sit back and be prepared for fully immersive clear sound coming from everywhere. A lot of other companies (looking at you sonos and sony) pretend they have this 360 immersive sound but they are terrible liars, and Bose is just the king and will most likely always reign in this category. I am grateful to have sound in my living room again, and not noise. There is a HUGE difference between immersive blending sound with warm tones and voices of clarity versus noise volume from extra speakers. Bose is just the bees knees and the new app they have for this product made it seamless. Connected in just a few minutes. Paired this with the 700 bass and its perfect. Highly recommend. Its sleeker and smaller than the sony and sonos, looks 100x better, sounds 100x better and cost less than the sony and cost just above the sonos if the sonos is on sale. Bose is to sound like Kerrygold is to butter. No competition.

    Take the time to set it up and get AMAZING SOUND

    The Bose Smart Soundbar has an amazing sound and really sounds like you have a surround sound system with multiple speakers, The product right out of the box has a very nice weight to it and a solid construction feel to it as do all BOSE products. The glossy reflective finish on the top of the soundbar looks very sleek and modern but it is a fingerprint and smudge magnet plus dust shows up very easily on it ruining the sleek glossy finish. The physical setup was an issue for me, I was unable to connect the soundbar via the HDMI ARC- my video device does not have an HDMI output. I was able to use the optical output adn was able to get great sound. The setup using the BOSE APP did leave something to be desired, i got various errors when adding the speaker and it would freeze up. I was finally able to add the speaker using the app and activate some of the new features such as the enhanced audio for dialogue/spoken words. I was able to effortlessly use the included mic and use the adaptiq feature and move the mic to my 5 favorite places to sit near the speaker and the mic and app were able to optimize the sound for each location thereby giving me the best sound in each spot. I was able to listen to the same amazing sound from various spots and distance from the soundbar. The included remote was helpful and nothing is quite as quick and convenient as using a remote to raise the volume and switch modes. The APP does allow for other features when the WIFI is connected but i really didn't use the other audio features-most were music streaming services. OVERALL it is a high end device that takes a little setting up but once you are zeroed in and adjsuted your settings the sound is AMAZING! makes gaming and movies sound like you are at the theater.

    I purchased this Smart Ultra Soundbar to replace an older model (over 10 yrs old) that suddenly stopped working. I also had a Bose 10" subwoofer that was wirelessly paired so I wanted to stay with Bose. I definitely am glad that my old soundbar fried itself! The Bose SUS was easily set up, paired easily with my existing Bose subwoofer, and also paired with a wireless turntable and my phone without a glitch. The sound in my basement rec room (approx 30' X 25') is excellent, and definitely an upgrade from the old model in clarity and breadth of sound. The app on my phone is great, and easily switches between the turntable and phone for input. It sounds great with my TV also! Some may argue it's a bit expensive, but imho you get what you pay for.

    Great sound and fits nicely under the TV. Big sound improvement over base TV speakers. May add sub in the near future for that extra base.

    Bose has always been at the top of my list and this new soundbar certainly keeps the brand at the top in my book! The sound is simply amazing, and all put together in an eye-pleasing, low-profile form factor that accents other audio-video pieces, but doesn't take over with box-like "trip hazards" in a small-space, home-theater room.

    This is my third Bose Soundbar. I have the Sound touch 300 and the Bose 700. I recently purchased a new TV and I thought I'd be able to get by using the TV's built-in speakers. Sadly, (yeah right) that wasn't the case. Since my new TV is Dolby Atmos capable and the 300/700 were not, I ended up purchasing the Bose Smart Ultra Soundbar. Hookup was simple; one HDMI cable and a power cord. Alexa works great with one complaint. Alexa's volume doesn't mirror other sound levels from the soundbar like TV and music volumes. I stream a lot of music through the soundbar usually at a low to moderate level, however, if I ask Alexa a question the response is considerably louder than the volume level before the question. This can be startling at times. It comes with a remote, nothing as elaborate as the one that came with the 300/700. Actually, I very seldom have a need to use the remote. It is very small, and I can easily see it getting lost. The Bose App is ok, it gets the job done. The sound is great you will not be disappointed,

    Love this thing. If you want the best of the best sound, for movies, music, gaming, and tv watching, there is no other soundbar for you! Add the Bose 700 base module and a set of Bose 700 surround speakers and you have the ultimate home theater/ ultimate home stereo for music. I cannot stress enough how amazing this system is. You are put in the middle of whatever is happening on your screen and the sound just envelopes you and comes at you from every direction possible. Bose has changed the way I enjoy home entertainment. This soundbar is the gateway to the best movie and music sound you can experience in your own home..The bass is perfectly powerful…..you will literally be blown away. And I haven’t ( and I’m not gonna) even got started on all the features, like built in Alexa, google chromecast, etc. I haven’t because the most important thing to me about a soundbar, is the sound. I challenge anyone to find a superior system. This thing THUMPS

    Picked up the Bose soundbar and it’s been a game-changer. Movies feel like they’re in a theater now—the dialogue is crisp, the effects hit hard, and the bass adds real depth without drowning anything out. Gaming is just as impressive—directional sounds come through clean so you can actually hear footsteps, explosions, and environmental details in a way that pulls you into the action. Setup was simple, and it blends right in with the living room without being an eyesore. The sleek design matches the performance—minimalist on the outside, powerful on the inside. If you want a single upgrade that makes both movies and gaming come alive, this soundbar is absolutely worth it.

    upgraded our current soundbar to the Bose Ultra. What a difference! Sound is amazing, clear, crisp. And with the Bose Music app, you can adjust settings. We prefer a heavier bass & found that we didn’t even need the separate bass module. Setup was a breeze too. Ditch whatever soundbar you have & get this one ASAP!

    The Bose Smart Ultra Dolby Atmos Soundbar is an impressive piece of audio equipment. Its sleek, minimalist design blends well with any decor, and it feels sturdy and well-made. The sound quality is outstanding. Dolby Atmos creates a truly immersive experience, with clear dialogue and powerful bass. It’s perfect for movies, music, and gaming, making you feel like you’re right in the middle of the action. Setting it up is straightforward, and it integrates smoothly with smart home systems, allowing easy control via voice commands or an app. While it’s on the pricier side, the audio performance and smart features make it a worthwhile investment for any home theater enthusiast.

    Works great. Produces so much bass for its size. I like that it has adjustable levels so you don’t get too boomy of a sound the space. You can customize your sound setting
