    The Bose tv soundbar is easy to install and operate. It is the perfect solution for a small space that you want to fill with sound. The bass speaker and the Omni directional Bose design show why Bose is the best sound system engineering company in the world. The bang for the buck is extreme and this is a perfect purchase for anyone wanting to fill the room with sound for a minimal amount of space taken.

    Great Solution for Hearing TV Dialogue

    I was having difficulty hearing the dialogue from our TV speakers or our older Samsung sound bar. After struggling for years with this, adding close captioning, and even with hearing aids. I gave up. Some shows with accents and some dialects were almost impossible for me. After reading reviews I decided to try this speaker from Bose. It is wonderful. I can turn off close captions and hear with the volume low. The speaker is very compact so it doesn't cover the bottom of the TV and block out the screen. It was so easy to install and came packaged so well. It reminds me of Apple products which I love. All I had to do is connect 2 cords. I was also able to connect my phone very easily to use the speaker for music. I can't say enough good about it. Now if you want surround sound with the subwoofers this isn't it. I think you may be able to add more but if you just want clear dialogue it's wonderful

    This is a great soundbar when you want something very simple and better than your tv. Has pretty good bass and impressive sound stage for its size. Dialog comes in clear and has Dialog boost of need be. Only has one tweeter but it does the job.

    Absolutely Amazing

    I am absolutely delighted with this soundbar. We bought a new 65" 4K UHD TV late summer along with a new Insignia cabinet and this speaker is the last component to complete the new set-up. I cannot adequately describe to you the subtle depth of audio clarity that this little guy brings to the viewing experience; you don't have to play it loud, it just immerses the whole room. Our living room is average to smallish in size and the unit is perfect for our set-up. The set-up was amazingly simple using the included cable along with a quick perusal of the manual. Bass and dialog settings were simple and I was done in 10 minutes. I've always heard that Bose audio was 'top-of-the-line' and I'm here to tell you, it is. So, if you're thinking about purchasing this Bose soundbar, go ahead and do it. You won't be sorry!

    For its size it definitely packs a decent amount of sound. The added center channel tweeter/mid range definitely helps with sound clarity verse the cheaper Bose Solo models that just have the two 30° angled mid-range. This one also includes those as well so you get an overall decent dispersion of sound and the sound field. Plus it gives you the ability to run a 3.5 mm cable to a bass source. Buying it at the $200 sales price I would say is well worth it. At the 279 price point, the lines start to blur of whether or not you should just go with a Bose soundbar that's one step up or another equivalent. The sound bars above this include a HDMI ARC support which allows you to use the TV remote to control volume. As well as app support to adjust and control everything

    Typical (non 901) BOSE sound... good amount of bass, clear mids, slightly dark highs. Sounds great for its tiny footprint. Fits neatly under the TV. And HDMI auto sets up when you plug it in.

    Great sound for such a small soundbar. The Bose TV speaker has substantially more base and mid than a built in tv speaker but cant match the base of a subwoofer. Overall it provides a very good sound for a compact soundbar.

    Improved Speech Clarity, Good Sound

    Provides clarity to speech for those of us with hearing impairment. Sound is good overall. Easy to connect to my Samsung TV using HDMI. I don't like that the volume indicator on the screen doesn't indicate a volume level, just a plus or minus. I like to see if I'm at 50%, or a 12, or something like that so I can have a reference point.

    We’ve replaced our bedroom speakers with the Bose soundbar. The sound is more clear, even when we have to lower the volume at night. We can still understand the conversations. The bass is really good for its size. Highly recommend if you are looking for a low budget upgrade but also want the best sound quality.

    Good for a small bedroom

    Bought this for my 14 year old daughter’s bedroom tv. For this purpose it’s really good sound. It’s clear, and crisp. For being a small Soundbar without a subwoofer (you can add on) it has good bass. She can play music from her iPhone with any music app. Movies, tv shows, music all sound very good. The size is perfect for a teenager’s bedroom. It’s not too long, it’s not too tall, it really is a good size for a small bedroom. The remote is good quality, simple and maybe a bit small for some. Negatives are not major, but more annoying. There’s no way to know the volume because there’s just two led lights. There’s a bass boost button, but there’s no way to know when it’s on or off. My daughter’s tv is Dolby ATMOS ready, unfortunately Bose doesn’t work with ATMOS. Basically that’s a feature the tv offers but with Bose you can’t utilize it.

    Bose TV Soundbar is the best soundbar I have purchased yet. This soundbar is small & powerful for the price. The clear voice is great! Good job Bose, it's about time somebody makes a soundbar where you can understand the voices and also have great sound.

    Not as awesome as I had hoped for. Only has bass adjustment. But you can’t go wrong with Bose. It is significantly better than tv audio. I am pleased with the item for the price.

    Bose always lives up to its name. The Bose tv sound bar was very easy to set up. Made a remarkable difference in the sound of the tv. The sound bar because of its size does not interfere with the looks or picture on the TV. The pricing was very good as well.
