    BOSE TV Speaker is a keeper!

    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!

    Great little speaker for any TV. These are a must these days with the terrible quality of TV speakers. Easy to use and a quick and easy connection to the TV to have it up and running in only a few minutes. Bluetooth capability is a nice add-on, but won't be used a ton. Great Bose sound.

    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.

    Recently bought this Bose soundbar and it has completely transformed my TV experience. The audio is crisp, dialogue is incredibly clear, and the bass adds depth without being overwhelming. Movies and shows sound so much more immersive now. Setup was quick and straightforward; it connected smoothly and worked with my TV right away. The design is sleek and modern, and it blends perfectly into my living room setup. If you’re looking for a soundbar that delivers rich, room-filling sound with zero hassle, this Bose model is absolutely worth it. Highly recommend!

    I purchased the Bose - TV Speaker Bluetooth Soundbar to get better room filling sound. This review is based on 1 month of ownership. I own a 65” Sony Bravia 4k TV and like most large screen TVs the speakers are not very powerful. I am rating this Bose Soundbar 5 stars because: 1) The sound is worlds better than my TV’s speakers. I can hear all the voices clearly and I get good room filling sound. My TV room is 12’ x 18’ and this soundbar is perfect. 2) This soundbar is smaller and fits in my entertainment center nicely. Many sound bars are very wide and do not fit in my entertainment center. 3) I have this soundbar connected to my TV’s HDMI “ARC” port. When I turn my TV on/off the soundbar turns on/off. When I turn the TV volume up/down the soundbar volume goes up/down. I only need to use the TV remote which simplifies things.

    Use it all the time. Works great for both watching tv or connecting to Bluetooth to listen to Spotify. It’s small & fits just about anywhere. It’s loud given its size. Easy to setup & easy to switch back and forth between the tv & phone to play music.

    Great Solution for Hearing TV Dialogue

    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    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

    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!

    The Bose speaker was a vast improvement over the sound that was coming out of my Samsung tv. Voices are crisp and clear. This is a speaker not a surround sound unit. For the price it can't be beat.

    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.

    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 bar has good sound. It however has no physical controls on the bar itself so the f you misplace the remote there is no way to control it. It has multiple kinds of signal input thus making very versátil.

    Looks and sounds great. So far the only issue was connecting it to my Fire TV. I wanted it to power on with the Fire TV remote. I couldn’t get it to work but the Bose has the option to power on if there is a sound signal. With the power on by signal, there is a 1-2 second delay. Not an issue for me. There is plenty of bass for movies and music. I was looking for clear voice frequencies which this speaker delivers. This was on sale when I got it, so i think it was a good deal.

    I just want to say the sound is great on this soundbar. It was easy to set up and it does have an HDMI ARC and an optical output. The reason I returned it was because you can only have one of them plugged in at anytime to utilize it. Since I was connecting this to a monitor and a tv I did not like that I had to connect and disconnect the cables. For a small room the sound is great! It is a simple speaker so you can't connect to the Bose App to control other features. For that you would need to upgrade to the Bose 600 or 900 and those are pricier speakers.
