Not happy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.After hooking this sound bar up, my 350 dollar bose head phones wont connect with it. Priced too high and not easy to hook up. Still have wires everywhere and 5 remotes. Ready to return.

Very nice sound
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This sound bar is incredible.I paired this with Bose subwoofer and the sound is perfect.Also the dialogue mode is the reason I purchased which works great.You have to access the mode from Bose app which for me is easy.

Another quaility product from Bose
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bose has a strong support team, in my opinion, one the best in the industry? They will not stop until your questions or problems are 100% resolved. I require that level of backup due to my somewhat limited knowledge of sound systems.

Bose does it again!
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We bought this Bose Soundbar 500 to use with our home projector and wow, we were not disappointed! Vocals are very crisp and bass is excellent even without the bass attachment which is sold separately. Highly recommend!

Excellent Sound Quality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased the Bose 500 soundbar to replace internal speakers on an LG OLED TV. It definitely is a big improvement with full range and clear voice. We have a Sonos Playbar on a second TV. The two soundbars compare favorably.

Great soundbar!
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Don’t let its size fool you. This Bose Soundbar 500 brings it. Great for home theaters. Combined with the Bose Subwoofer 500, sounds great for movies, regular tv programming, and music listening.

Sounds Wonderful
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It really is to bad this soundbar is discontinued, because it really had outstanding sound. It sounds even better when paired with the Bass 700 subwoofer. Outstanding product!

Best Buy sells Bose products produced 2 yrs ago
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound bar was produced by Bose in 2018. Best Buy sold it to full price and without disclosing that they received it from Bose 2 years ago. I only found this out because I-called Bose directly Because of difficulty installing and updating. I called Best Buy Corp and spoke to a supervisor to report. However they refused any responsibility or accommodation. BUYER BEWARE.

Great sound from a small package.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Best thing about adding this speaker we can now hear the voices. When just using the TV speaker, we had a difficult time hearing the dialog over the background sound on a movie or TV show.

Just enough
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This sound bar is perfect for our bedroom TV. It has just enough definition to do the job. The headset setup fine tunes it so you get the proper Bose definition they are famous for. Highly recommend.

Pretty decent Soundbar
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a pretty decent soundbar, would have loved to see support for DTS, thus one star less. Also, a little more bass would have been good. Otherwise vocals are definitely very sharp and clear, even at low volume.

Great sound bar
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The soundbar itself is great! Excelent lows mids and highs. I also purchased the Bose 500 sub to go with it and it's pretty good, not as good as I was expecting. But there is a noticeable difference with it connected.

Good sound and clarity
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We like the sound bar, but it doesn't always stay on. It reverts back to the tv sound. This necessitates turning the sound bar back on when it is supposed to on all the time.
