Bose Tv Speaker
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great sound, just what I needed. Easy set up! If I had to change one thing it would be the remote range, you have to point it directly at the light on the base.

Soundbar
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent Soundbar – Big Sound in a Sleek Design This soundbar completely transformed my TV and music experience. The sound is clear, rich, and powerful, with deep bass that really brings movies, shows, and music to life without overwhelming dialogue. Voices are crisp, action scenes feel immersive, and even at higher volumes there’s no distortion. Setup was quick and easy, and it connected seamlessly to my TV and other devices. I also love the sleek, modern design—it looks great in any room and doesn’t take up much space. Overall, this soundbar offers outstanding performance for the price and is a huge upgrade from built-in TV speakers. Highly recommend!

Sounds very good
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The overall sound quality is very good. Being able to adjust the bass level is a nice feature. The unit fits nicely in front of our flat pane TV, the height around 3 inch’s tall, and black color doesn’t subtract anything from the TV. The little green power on light doesn’t distract you, as it’s not bright. I’m going to update a older flat panel next month and will be buying another unit for the new TV.

Saving a Loyal Best Buy Customer
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I am going to jump forward to a Best Buy transaction on December 14, 2025 where I tried to move my November 25 purchase from my Visa to my Best Buy Credit Card. On November 25. 2025 I attempted to purchase two Bose Soundbars on my Best Buy Credit Card, and was told it wasn’t working. Unable to find out why this occurred, I was left with the only option to purchase the soundbars with my Visa. After spending hours on the phone for several days afterwards to find out why, I was instructed to return the items to the Best Buy store. You can imagine how surprised I was when I was told by Citi Bank at the store on Decembet 14th that they could not verify it was me, when they had just done that the day before on the phone. In other words, I could not move the purchase of the soundbars from my Visa to my Best Buy Credit Card while the items were temporarily on sale. Trey, I believe a geek squad member, could see how frustrated my wife and I were. He advocated for us by calling Citi Bank a second time, and stated our predicament. He was able to get the Citi Bank representative to ok our use of our Best Buy Credit Card. I have been a loyal Best Buy customer that has purchased countless items in the last 15 years. I research items for purchase and come to Best Buy to “try out” the items. This is the advantage Best Buy has over Amazon, Bose, and other online competitors. Best Buy also allows me to pay off the items over time which is another advantage. However, I was extremely frustrated that I could not use my Best Buy Credit Card, and no one could tell me why, until Trey advocated for us. I was ready to no longer be a loyal Best Buy customer. Trey changed all that by listening to his customer, spending a great deal of time explaining our predicament to Citi Bank, and getting Citi Bank to approve the use of our Best Buy Credit Card. I have always paid our credit card off in a timely basis, and later found that the reason Citi Bank did not want to approve our purchase using the Best But Credit card was that they had a phone number other than our Best Buy approved phone number. A day earlier, on the phone, Citi Bank was able to verify it was me, without the use of my phone number. Trey was friendly, attentive, knowledgeable, and results oriented. I cannot thank him enough for what he did for us. Working in quality and customer service in healthcare for over 36 years, I appreciate Trey, and will continue to shop at Best Buy because of him. Another item you may want to consider, relates to the other reason Best Buy stands out in relation to their competitors. The ability to try products in the store. On November 25th, I came in to purchase 2 soundbars by comparing the Bose to the Sonos soundbars. The Sonos exhibit did not work. Although I was in the DeKalb store 2 more times within 19 days, it still did not work. The very advantage your stores have over the online competitors is not being supported. I hope this is something corporate can remedy.

THE BEST BUY
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a lot of problems trying to hear the voices in a movie, they became low and difficult to understand and this was the biggest motivation for buying the Bose sound bar. After purchasing, this problem is over because the equalization of it is prepared to raise the tones of her voices and be able to be heard more easily. The sound bar is very easy to install because it fits in one of the HDMI slots and you don't have to worry about turning it on or off, because despite having a small remote control, it turns on and off automatically when I turn the television on or off, Its sound is spectacular and to my taste, I don't need anything else to listen to movies or music very well. For this price it is much more benefit than you get from the cost of this sound bar

Great for Moms
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My mother wanted a simpler set up then the Sony receiver and wanted less bulk in her TV set up. Paired with an Apple TV, this fits the bill and very good sound. Might add the Bose subwoofer later for movies.

Amazing Sound Quality

The speaker is connected via HDMI ARC and works perfectly with the TV and love the 'Enable Dialogue mode' which improves the clarity of dialogue and vocals in movies and programs.

Basic bar
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fine. That’s it, just fine. It is better sound than the TV but it’s not compatible with the app and therefore can’t be linked with surround speakers or a bass module. Easy to install and use.

Big bass for small room
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this particular speaker. Easy connect via BT, no need to turn it on manually. It turns off automatically, on standby if you need it. Sounds great, bass is more than enough for a small room. Planning of connecting it to my car as BT speaker on the go. Try it!

||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sounds great, looks great everything you want from a sound bar. Would recommend for sure. Instillation was easy as well. It looks very sleek on the wall and takes up little space for such a great sound. Bose has always had good sound and quality! Their durability has never been an issue.

Better Than Anticipated
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was in need of a soundbar to enhance the tv speakers on my 1 yr old Samsung TV. The speakers are on the back side of the tv and would find myself turning up the volume to sometimes at least 17 or 18 in order to hear conversations at a comfortable level. It doesn't help the tv sits in a cabinet either. The first bar I purchased was the Roku soundbar but after a week of use found the sound not to my liking. Read a few reviews or the Bose which of course were mixed. Living in an apartment of roughly over 1K sq ft, I just needed something to project sound in the front without sounding like a tin can. Connection was simple, bar started up as soon as the power was connected. Using the optical cord instead of a HDMI cable, the sound is perfect to my ears once the tv spearkers were turned off. The base to me is great without having to utilize Base Adjust button on the remote. I wasn't looking to have a movie theater effect of loud base. The only negative I can find is I wish the volume could be controlled by my Samsung remote and also it would be nice to have a visual of the volume level output on the tv. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for something simple. Pricey but worth it.

BOSE TV Speaker is a keeper!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Very impressed! I returned a small JBL 2.1 sound bar and subwoofer setup and picked the BOSE TV Speaker on the advice of a family member. The JBL was great but I was not able to detune the subwoofer enough to keep from bothering my neighbors (apartment living). This is where the BOSE TV Speaker really shines. Without the external wired subwoofer, it is powerful enough to deliver some impressive bass response without becoming overpowering. Now I realize that this is subjective, but in an apartment, your neighbors have their subjectivity to weigh in with as well. We have plans to move to a house once we have saved some more money and then we can add the subwoofer if we need more bass at that time. Pros: Remote is small, but not too tiny. Indicator LED's on the bar are not overpowering. Voice enhancement lets you increase voices in the audio without sacrificing the additional audio. Compact and deceptively powerful. Bluetooth (if you want to listen to your Bluetooth audio device. Cons: Single HDMI port (ARC) Expensive optional mounting brackets (optional and if needed) A little pricy - it's BOSE. Overall, a definite keeper!
