    The sound bar is definitely better than sound coming from the TV.

    I am surprised at how poor this speaker is, especially from Bose. It sounds about the same as, or maybe a little worse, than the stock speakers in my 7 year old television (which is on the cheaper end of TVs they sold at the time). I think you'd be better off to plug in an Alexa or something - it sounds like a cheap portable USB speaker. And it has a white light on it that will not go off, facing the person looking at the TV. The only way to get it off is to hide it by covering with electric tape. It may work okay in a very small room, but you're better off saving your money here.

    Noticeable improvement in dialogue. I had an older tv that did not have good audio. A higher end newer tv would likely not benefit as much.

    Bose sound bar worked for approximately 1.5 hours before it shut itself off. I tried turning the sound bar back on but it would not work properly. I tried the troubleshooting from the Bose website but nothing worked. Sound bar was very hot where the power cable plugged into the sound bar. I will be sending this sound bar back and purchasing another sound bar from a different company.

    This is not a game changer for clearing in an external speaker It helps during speaking parts. If you don’t have any external speakers and lack space for a surround bar and woofer This does a good job.
