    Bose always delivers. This soundbar doesn't have alexa in it so it's plug and play. Easy to set up and standard bose quality sound delivery. Got an open box item so the discount on the quality helped decide my purchase :)

    This product truly enhanced my home theatre experience, I really didn’t have much knowledge or experience with sound enhancing tech but this made a big difference in my mind. Connected seamlessly with my TCL tv

    Samsung TV is fabulous! We also bought the Bose sound bar also. Both are a great buy. TV picture is bright and clear. Sound bar has clear annunciation of words. I suggest buying the wall bracket from Amazon.

    Bose Sound Bar Review

    The product puts out nice sound for the size that it is, although being a Bose product I was perhaps expecting a bit more for the price. Altogether it is a nice product though.

    This is a quality sound bar that we purchased for an .onn tv that didn't have decent sound. The sound is much richer now, and it's nice that we can also use it with other devices over bluetooth. I also like that I don't have to have a large sub woofer in order to get quality sound. It was also very easy to set up.

    Worked Good for an Hour

    Bought this on Black Friday and returned the very next day. The sound was amazing and so much better then my TV speakers. Voices were clear and easy to hear. I read so many positive reviews on how this works great for a TV in a small room, which is what I was getting it for, that the few negative ones I saw never even cross my mind. Low in behold I happened to be one of those people who got disappointed in the product. It worked great for an hour then, it just shut off, got it working again to finish the show but then it shut off again. Tried all the different trouble shooting to get it to work and nothing. Never overheated, just decided to shut off. My first Bose product and got let down.

    just needed something simple for the Westinghouse 32" TV we bought for our camper. This speaker was perfect, and it definitely sounds much better than the stock tv speakers. I'm a big fan of Bose as it is.

    Great sound bar. Used it on a Samsung TV that had poor sound quality when playing movies through a DVD/Blu-ray Player. It worked perfectly, Plays phones through Blue-Tooth as well with great sound quality. Lots of bass if that is what you are after. This is the second time we have bought an electronic device under Best Buy's used program and have come out with a quality device for a reasonable price.

    It’s a good soundbar I have no complaints other than the fact that it is not compatible with the Bose app.

    The soundbar offers impressive sound quality with clear dialogue, balanced mids, and punchy bass, making it a standout in its price range. Its sleek, durable build feels premium and fits well in any setup. While bass enthusiasts might prefer adding a subwoofer, the performance is solid overall. At its regular price, it’s a good buy, but on sale, it becomes an outstanding value. If you want great sound and build quality without breaking the bank, this sound bar is a smart choice—especially during a discount.

    The salesperson was nice, but not fully informed. He told me everything I needed was in the box so I didn't need to purchase a hdmi cable. This was not the case. Sound bar sounds nice and was simple to setup.

    Sound is great, and the size is perfect for the mantle. Only complaint is that when go to the cable guide, it decreases the volume automatically. It doesn’t increase when we go back to live TV, and we can’t find which setting to change to fix this.

    Soundbar that works with turntable!

    I usually don't write reviews but am offering this one as I could find very little insight into my own search for a soundbar that works with a turntable. I was skeptical that this little soundbar would do the job for me but it really exceeded my expectations. Going into this purchase I was looking to drastically simplify and minimize my audio setup. After years of lugging around a component system and never really using it to its capacity I wanted simple and minimal. A soundbar was appealing but it needed to handle both my flatscreen Roku TV and a record player. This immediately cut down the soundbars available as most did not have any aux ports. My internet research showed that the Bose TV Speaker was highly recommended for a turntable. The only thing I wasn't crazy about this was that it could not be expanded to full surround sound with satellite speakers, only a bass module. I also felt some shame going with a bottom of the line soundbar (even though it is a Bose) withy my turntable. What would my vinyl collecting friends think of me?? I talked with a Best Buy associate in-store (who seemed unsure about how exactly to connect a record player) and I decided to test a work around with a RCA to HDMI adapter for my turntable and the Bose 600 soundbar, which could be expanded to full surround. Unfortunately this did not work! Reluctantly I unboxed the Bose TV Speaker, plugged in my RCA to 3.5mm adapter to the Aux port and it worked like a charm. And it sounds really good, even without the bass module. I even compared it with my old component system and it sounded better. And it works great for TV audio too - deep low end and clear speaking. Worked seamlessly with the Roku TV interface and I like that I can control all of it with My RokuTV remote. Also good for bluetooth audio from my phone. In the end I am very pleased with this as it has drastically cleaned up my AV equipment and meets my listening needs. As I said, exceeded my expectations and reinforced Bose audio quality. I'll also note that Best Buy accepted the return on the 600 and adapter no questions asked.

    Very simple unit, great sound for both television and bluetooth devices. This is a basic entry level sound bar, but because its a Bose product, it will not disappoint. Takes bland factory TV sound to a professional level with great dynamics, solid bass and simple adjustments to optimize your listening experience. Five starts all day long!
