Customer Ratings & Reviews

First, they sound great but are mostly for background audio or for a song that has put in surround effects. I didn’t know this at the time but your Tv has to have specific audio options for these to really work. But thankfully my tv broke & the new one had the specs. Ps: A tip when you set them up and you’re doing the ADAPTIQ thing, put dish towels or hand towels over them. It will increase the overall sound output.

I have now 3 Bose sound bars, all with Subs and surround speakers. I tried and had others, gave away or returned (like 990B). I have (each setup), all are smart, as I use Alexa on all. Bose 500 sound bar with 500 sub and surround (let’s say 500, due to Bose does not give these a number) speakers Bose Smart 700 sound bar with 700 Sub and surround (let’s say 500, due to Bose does not give these a number) speakers Bose smart 900 sound bar with 700 sub and 700 rear speakers I like all the Bose rear speakers, the 700’s are just so small, I could not believe how small they are and sound as good as the much bigger surround (500) speakers, not that the surround (500) speakers are big in any way. Do the 700 surround sound better than the other, I have to say no, definitely the same but tiny. The 500 vs 700 bass module’s …. I like the 700’s better, the 700’s have more bass, not that the 500 bass is bad, it’s just the 700 bass sounds better as expected as it is bigger. The 500 vs 700 vs 900 sound bars……. I use the 500 for our bedroom and the 500 sounds great with the 500 sub and surround speakers for the bedroom. The 700 and 900 sound great and definitely better sound than the 500 ( but the 500 does sound great for a bedroom) (in my opinion). I think Bose did such a great job on the 700 that I don’t hear much difference between the 700 and 900 sound bars. I love the glass tops of both and with the 700 sub’s and either surround speaker types, the 700 or 900 is stunning in sound quality. I have played a bunch of movies with Atmos and both sound just about identical, that’s how good the 700 is even without Atmos. I highly recommend Bose to all, you do get what you pay for.

Hi there, These speakers are extremely well built. These fit to my Bose Soundbar 900 flawlessly. To cut confusion here, these speakers are connected wirelessly to the SoundBar, however, they still need to be hard wired with their power/amp units, and those units (they are like our laptop power adapter units) are plugged into the wall adapters. Now for Sound, it's great sound which is achieved without hardwiring your soundbar to these speakers, clear the clutter, hence I do really love them. I got the OpenBox in dollars 100 less, which was a grab for me. These speakers add another dimensions to the music especially when you sit >25 feet distance from TV and SoundBar. I watched Tomorrow War and Transformers age of extinction and they sound phenomenal!! I can NOT ask for more, I am more that, definitely, more than satisfied. I am in my theater for sure. Now to note that, I don't use any kind of subwoofer to support bass, however, I am extremely satisfied. These little speakers can be turned off and can set volume level from the Bose Music App. You get them, try them, you will definitely love them! Give them some time and try different volume levels, Genres, 5.1, Dolby Atmos etc and set the volume level best to your suite, especially, when everybody sleeps at night, test when it's quiet! You will be amazed by these little speakers!!

Awesome little speakers. They are small enough to hide or look good enough to show off.

I have these as surrounds on my soundbar. In the small bedroom these are in (10ft by 8ft) these are excellent! Clear, clean audio. If you are limited on space, these are the surrounds for you. Much better than most of the competition. Setup was easy. Turned it on, it paired, I went on with my life. Easy peasy!

I am using these with a Soundbar 700 and Bass Module 700 and the sound is indistinguishable from wired systems I've used in the past. Setup was fairly easy with the iPhone app, but some assembly is required. The speakers are only sort-of wireless, in the sense that each has a unit that allows it connect to the soundbar and provides power. Each speaker needs an electric outlet, but the wires from the "receiver" unit (one for each speaker) that's in-line with the power cord are long and unobtrusive enough that placement isn't difficult.

Great product and they sound amazing, perfect size snd very easy to install.

Great pick-up. Works great with SoundTouch 300. Easy setup. Small enough to hide. Where I was able to place them, the “power brick” is hidden from view. People have to remember that you will not always have surround sound coming from your system. It will depend on the output of the tv show or movie on whether or not you’ll get the surround sound. A lot of your older tv shows or movies are mono so there will be no surround sound. Just sound from the bar. I really like it. Works for me. Sound is best with music. I would recommend product.

I bought this Open box and they are perfect. No problems so far. I will say that a pair are good for a small to medium size room & you'll need more if the room is bigger. Connected easily to my Bose soundbar 600 (although I had to go online to find directions for how to connect the two). Also I had no problems with the volume of the speakers. They were just right for me. But I have also realized that the sound will depend on what's coming out of the TV.

I have the Bose 700 sound bar. It sounds terrific. Adding these rear speakers was the perfect complement. Like others have written, I feel like I am in a theater. They were very simple to add. Use the Bose app, it walks you right through it. It took me less than 10 minutes to get them out of the box and to listening to Jurassic Park. The app allows you to adjust the volume from the speakers and the sound bar. Since I live in a condo, I won’t be getting the bass box. This set up provides plenty.

I was pondering about these for at least 2 years before making the purchase. Why ponder so long? Well couple of reasons - mixed reviews from folks where some were of the opinion that there is no sound and others saying that it is just awesome; and couple that with the price tag, then you can begin to ponder! So, ok, bought it and have been using them for a good 6 months now after pairing them with my Bose SoundTouch 300, and we have been having an amazing time! We have actually managed to watch a lot of sci-fi movies again, just to realize what we have bought and how good sound can be. These speakers added that extra dimension to the sound of a TV and have brought out the best. There are serious moments when you feel that - "Hey where did that sound come from, or hey is there someone in the back!" I'd say, when you get those kind of feelings or questions, then yes, you have got what you asked for! These speakers are small, easily blend with the stuff you might have in your shelves and get tuned to the room environment using the Bose tech of ADAPTiQ audio calibration. They fill the room with excellent sound and can be tuned even further with the Bose SoundTouch App using your mobile / mac / pc. Worth every penny if you want the surround sound experience at home!

I purchased the surround speakers to add to the Soundbar 500 and Bass Module 500 system I already had on the TV. They add a great new dimension to the sound that we never had before. Easy to assemble following the included instructions then just plug them in. Installation was easy. The Bose Music App finds them and makes the wireless connection to the rest of the system then use the App to adjust the volume to your preference. My only disappointment was trying to figure out how to attach them to a free standing speaker stand. Either a Bose stand or a third party stand. Bose sells a free standing Universal speaker stand but the information they provide is not convincing enough to me that they will work with these speakers. Bose also sells wall mounts but I didn't want them on the walls. Since the speakers have no mounting holes or slots except to accommodate the Bose wall mounts, there is no visibly easy way to attach them to a stand. Right now they are sitting on end tables and sound great.

I hesitated for a while,once you find the sweet spot to place them they really bring things to life,only con is personally i tink $250 would be the correct price but as stated before they make a great addition,running mine with the top ultra smart soundbar.

I have the Bose SoundTouch 300 soundbar and the Bose BM 500. While the system is already good, I still miss the surround sound of movies like bird chirping, flying bullets or those thrilling musical scores coming from the rear speakers of my previous HT which is a traditional 5.1 setup. Now that I got these bad boys, the Bose Wireless Surround Speakers, audio definition of my movies and TV shows are now awesomely satisfying. The Bose Wireless Surround Speaker sounds crisps and brutal when watching surround encoded movies. It picks up the thrilling audio effects and amplify it more. Sounds clearer and more detailed compared to all 5.1 systems I've owned. Its easy to pair to the soundbar, but don't just stop there during the initial setup. Download and install the soundtouch app, in my case its installed in my laptop. The app allows me to control the loudness of the surround speakers. I set mine to 60 percent of the maximum volume. I can now hear sound effects that was so vague when played on my other 5.1 home theater.

Well, these are a nice addition, if you are trying to create some surround sound with Bose. However, I do feel they are overpriced if you are paying more for the premium name of Bose. These speakers do require a wire to be connected from the speakers to a small receiver that connects wireless to the sound bar, etc.

I was very hesitant purchasing these. Figured my soundbar and subwoofer would suffice. I finally gave in to give these a try. So happy I did! The surround sound is incredible. Makes watching tv/movies a lot more pleasurable experience. Also love how small these speakers are. Was able to place them in discreet locations without interrupting my room aesthetic.

Upgraded my Bose 700 soundbar and subwoofer with these rear speakers has totally changed the way that the system sounds and once adjusting the frequency in the app you get a lot of noise out of the speakers

Great speakers and as an open box it’s a deal you can’t beat! Linked easily with the app to my Bose soundbar and sub.

The sound is very clear and perfect i like The bose brand for watch movies with my Family

Connected easily to my main speaker. Adds depth of sound when watching a movie.
