Customer Ratings & Reviews

*Please read full review: I have owned these surrounds for about 4 years and for most of these 4 years I have been really disappointed in these surrounds. As others have said, they produce very little sound and are not even close to the sound quality of the sound bars and the subs. For the majority of this time, my Bose set up included the SoundTouch 300 Sound Bar, the Bass Module, and these surrounds. My TV was a 55 inch Sony 900e (2017) and mostly using an Apple TV 4K, first with the 1st edition and recently with the 2nd version. When listening to music, the sub really came to life and the sound was pretty decent out of these surrounds. However, when watching a movie the sub and the surrounds were barely noticeable. In December (2021) I upgraded to the Bose Soundbar 900. The sub and surrounds were still compatable. With this upgrade, the bass module really came to life while watching movies. It was incredible the difference, with again, the only difference was the soundbar. The connection between the sub and the soundbar was clearly better. A couple of weeks ago, I upgraded our TV to a Sony 55 A80J Oled (2021), which passes through Dolby Atmos. This update brought the surrounds to a level that I have only dreamed about. The Soundbar 900 obviously includes Atmos and the sound difference out of the surrounds is night and day. They sound fantastic and much more inline with the quality of Bose. We typically have the surrounds behind curtains and I would have to raise them and uncover them while watching a movie to barely hear them. Now, we can leave them covered and they help to create a 360 sphere of sound when watching really anything, but especially in Atmos. The way this all happened leads me to believe that the sound quality of the speaker really depends on the signal from the sound bar and also the TV. For 4 years, these have been not worth the money, the last couple of weeks, they have been 100% amazing. Why 4 stars instead of 5, well, the last 4 years of mediocre have to count for something, though not all of this I believe was at the fault of the speakers. If you have a modern system, save your money and get these. If you have an older system, you may have to get the newer surrounds, I think they are called the Surrounds 700. I have not heard those yet, but currently, I am in no rush to upgrade! I would imagine, the newer tech would help with the better signal if you have an older set-up, but this is only speculation based on the improvement of the signal between the new Soundbar with the older sub.

For these speakers being so small, the sound is great. The only downside is you need brackets or stands made by Bose, you can't use universal brackets or stands. I purchased these speakers in December 2018, a month after i purchased the Bose 700 soundbar and subwoofer. At first I figured I didn't need the rear speakers, but I was wrong. It makes a huge difference having the rear speakers. You hear a lot more!!!

I spent $80 on these, had a few coupons and I found it open box. They are great, but the $299 price is just something very Bose and does not reflect the quality that good (I wouldn't have paid full retail). These should maybe be $179 at most, but overall they look good. I would suggest getting the omni jewel ones instead of these, slightly more expensive but they will look even better.

I bought the Soundtouch 300 soundbar with the acoustimass 300 bass module & virtually invisible 300 rear surround speakers to replace my 25 year old Bose acoustimass surround speaker system. This system was poorly demonstrated in the retail store alongside a top competitor's system. I chose this system based on my previous experience with Bose since the 80's. Coupled with my 4k SUHDTV, the system doesn't disappoint me with sound performance and clarity. The soundtrack isn't overriding the voice anymore. I'm experiencing true realistic surround sound that follows 3D blueprint architecture. Whereas some users experienced difficulty pairing the remote control with cable, dvr, tv, etc., I found the remote to be a great replacement. The negative side of this system is minor and major. Minor - frequently, the Connectivity Indicator of the soundbar will turn solid amber and make one think that the bass module and/or surround speakers have lost wireless connectivity. Simple to reset. Major - the HDMI ARC will drop the signal and requires resetting the dvr and/or tv by unplugging the unit(s) from the electrical outlet or power supply. I returned the 1st soundbar after the 3rd loss of signal prior to the Superbowl, but found the replacement loses the signal as well. The loss of signal occurs at least once a week. Inconvenient if recording a show or movie while watching tv or recording. I would like to think a software upgrade or patch in the near future will fix this issue.

This is the second time I bought these and both is always my two girl brand

Awesome speakers ! Makes my rear surround sound absolutely awesome

Works great so far! Installed in my den using wiring already in the wall from my previous Wired Bose speakers.

For everyone reading the reviews and notice all the negative ones regarding the low volume of these speakers please ignore them. These sound great, and will go perfect with your SoundTouch 300 bar. You can't adjust the volume on the surround speakers itself, but you can do so in the Bose SoundTouch app. Bose has updated the app so you can adjust the surround level.

Not sure if im not using them right but the sound is so low its over powered by soundbar. I have to be at least 1ft away to hear them. Feel like great quality just low volume on them for the price

Good speakers, overpriced for the sound quality. these speakers are powerful but very small, there is a lot of cable to them for good reason.

Let me start off by saying I think some reviewers here don't understand what surround actually does and what wireless means. You still need a power source, anything that's wireless needs power unless it runs on batteries, would you really wanf your speakers to run on a battery??!! As far as the sound, they sound amazing. They do what they are supposed to do, produce the background noise you wouldn't normally hear. The setup was a breeze, less then 10min. This along with my soundbar 300 is just amazing. I'm still holding off on the subwoofer as I'm not 100% convinced I need it yet.

Awesome subwoofer! Just make sure that you don’t plug it directly into wall plug if you leave in an area subject to thunderstorms & power outages because it could damage it. Trust me. Always plug into surge protectors. I learned the hard way now I’m in the process of getting it repaired because I can’t do without it lol.

Very satisfied with this surround system,easy to install with my 900 sound bar and subwoofer module 700.

Excellent addition to our surround sound Bose system on our deck at the campground!!! Not sure why we didn’t do this sooner!!!

Sounds awesome i sometimes greak out when i hear them especially during creepy movies

These are a nice add on to the sound bar and sub to complete your home theater experience. The price is a little much, but that’s what to expect from Bose because the quality is phenomenal!

These speakers are amazing. The sound is amazing. The base is good and it makes the bose soundbar sound great. I love it. Great product.I will buy Bose products again and again.

Incredible sound for something so small. Easy to conceal also

These little buggers are just as awesome as all Bose sound systems. My neighbor hates me. Ha

Go to ST Bose app and adjust the surround volume ( settings > speaker settings > Audio Settings). Increase the surround volume to 9 and bring the center volume to -1 for the best sound experience. Bose >>>>>>Sonos in sound quality. 4 star because these speakers still have to wire with receivers.
