    The sound bar was not difficult to install. It gives a good sound quality. The dialog mode does help. However, even when I turn the volume up, it's not loud enough for my elderly father. If you need a sound system loud enough to rattle the windows, this isn't it.

      Hello GamerWeasel,

      Thank you for providing your review of the Solo 5 TV soundbar. We're glad to hear that you enjoyed the sound quality and that you found it simple to use! We apologize however if it did not quite work out for your father. If you are looking for something for your father, we might also recommend our Hearphones listed here: https://www.bestbuy.com/site/bose-hearphones-conversation-enhancing-headphones-black/5886100.p?skuId=5886100

      These are conversion enhancing headphones that will let him amplify the dialog from the TV, let's him turn down the distractions in noisy environments and focus on what he wants to hear.

      Feel free to give it a try and let us know how it goes! Additionally, please reach out to us if you have any further questions or concerns by clicking here: https://bose.life/2LXQA9c

    Got this for my dad, who's hard of hearing. We were very impressed with the dialog button which enhances sound when he's listening to conversations on television. I would recommend this sound bar for HD televisions which may need an additional boost for sound quality.

    I was very excited to purchase this product. It sounded very good in the store, but when I got it home, I was disappointed. The sound was lacking bass. Hooking it up to my TV was easy. I returned it as it was not the Bose quality i had hoped for.

      Hello Annie,

      It's great to hear that you were excited to purchase the Soundbar and that you thought it sounded good in the store! It's a shame that on this occasion you felt that you did not get the same level of bass as you did in store, this would usually be solved by running AdaptIQ. We are sorry to hear that you took the product back, we will miss you!

      Thank you for taking the time to review the Solo 5 Soundbar, we really appreciate your feedback.

      Kindest regards,
      Zoe - Bose Customer Support bose

    It is what it is and that is a great little soundbar especially helpful to better understand dialogue. Has a dialogue setting which allows me to better understand the spoken word. Perfect in my "older" age. Improves the TV sound greatly for such an inexpensive unit.
