    This is my second Bose sound bar and I bought them both for the same reason, Mario hearing is not what it used to be and I’ve had difficulty picking up audio, especially on British programs. The new televisions, while sporting an amazing picture, come up short on sound. This sound bar has a setting which accentuates the mid range so I can hear the spoken word decidedly better and that has made all the difference in my enjoyment of programming

    This Bose is for making your tv speakers sound a lot better. It is not made to shake the room. In fact you can't even add a floor base. But it does have enough base to make a movie sound very good. The only thing I did not like is it does not come with a HDMI input, so you have to use the remote that comes with it. You can set your TV and cable box to the Bose remote, but if you have to have your remote then you will have to use the Bose remote.

    The sound quality is excellent but it's not too loud. I guess you have to find the higher end models if you want all the qualities.

    Bose, in my opinion is vastly over rated!. Sound is fair at best. Little or no bass on low end. Also, hard to sync with remote. It has to be lined perfect with tv & remote to not get out of sync.

With this system, you can adjust the amount of bass to your liking. You may see information on how to do so here: https://bose.life/2tuQgRX. Regarding the connection with the remote, this is not a typical issue, and we would like the opportunity to take a further look at what you are experiencing.

    Finally! There are many sound bar/woofer combinations available for improving and enhancing TV sounds. They are large, bulky, have many pieces and are in general too cumbersome. BOSE Solo 5 incorporates the bass into a single piece that connects easily, doesn't take much space, and provides the highest quality sounds, dialog, music that you can ask for! Simplicity is best!
