    Great sound and bass from a smaller sound bar, has a woofer built into the back and the bass is perfect with the normal sound the sound bar puts out.

    Great sound with just a single component. Remote control synchronized well with tv and cable box. Only caveat: need to disconect optical cable to input from rca connected devices.

    I purchased this sound bar at the same time as a new TV and the combination picture/audio is amazing! I am not disappointed at all (I'm not surprised since it is a Bose product).

    The sound and Style is great. The only thing I wish it had a Bluetooth remote.. it's a pain in the butt to make sure you're aimed perfectly at it to turn the volume up or down!

    While looking for bigger sound bars I ran into this one. At the moment seemed expensive but built quality, style and specially the SOUND, got my vote. Absolutely fantastic.

    This sound bar is typical Bose quality and produces great sound. I have placed it in my master bedroom and it's perfect for the smaller surroundings and a modest size TV.

    We loved the LED TV we purchased 3 years ago, but the sound quality was lacking. So, for Christmas I purchased this Bose sound bar and wow. It makes the TV rock now.

    We were looking to replace an older Bose that took up too lucy room. This is perfect and sounds great. Think it actually sounds better than the old one.

    I was looking for a simple way to provide better sound for my flat screen TV. I cannot understand a lot of dialog on the built-in speakers on the TV. I have an receiver/amplifier with center, side, and base speakers but I have to turn on all gadgets and use different remotes for the amplifier. This is where the Bose Solo 5 is better. It connects directly to the TV and volume is controlled by the TV remote. Another thing I like is the "dialog" setting which enhances the voice so I can hear better. I would give it 5 stars but sound is not as good as a big Hi-Fi. It is probably better than cheaper sound bars and cheaper soundbars do not have the "dialog" setting.

    I moved and didn't want to hook up the old surround sound with all those wires. This fits the bill! Easy to connect and sounds great. More sub would be nice, but I'll take it!

    I paid less than $100 for this, the sound is not impressive, just for EveryDollar browsing YouTube videos and music. Basic speaker.

    My Bose mini sound bar has the best quality sound and the best looks the price that I paid. Crisp highs and tight bass. It makes watching T V much more enjoyable.

    The sound is far superior than Samsung or Visio brands. It’s compact and fits on my fireplace mantle without being bulking, plus the sound is phenomenal!
