    Below average for the price you're paying. It's a smaller producing box compared to the older samsung bar and seperate bass I had before. Had high hopes for the brand.

    Good at stabilizing sound when commercials come on. Sound is good. The bass is severely lacking even with the bass boost activated, little disappointed considering that it had good quality bass. Also disappointed because I was expecting so much more quality from a name like Bose.

    I know it was a refurbished item but I thought it would sound better than it does. Voices are distorted and it was a little disappointing. It took me to long to set up my TV and went past the return date. Otherwise I would have either returned it or exchanged it.

    I purchased Bose sound bar for my tv and I was very disappointed with sound quality. I tried optical, Hdmi and bluetooth connections but sound quality was average.

      Hello!

      You'll be happy to know you can adjust the sound of the soundbar to suit your tastes. You can do this by using dialogue mode, to enhance the dialogue from your TV. You can enable this by pressing the dialogue button in the bottom right of the remote.

      You can also adjust the bass/treble balance using the bass button. You can find a guide on how to do this here: https://bose.life/2YSDQF2

    Very disappointed for a $230 Bose Unit. My TV speakers produce more sound than this does. No difference whether I send the audio thru HDMI arc or Bluetooth. Need to crank it all the way up to hear shows clearly.

    Purchased based on brand name but disappointed with performance. Barely better than my Sony tv output. Unless you have an inexpensive tv with poor sound pass on this item. Returned

    Worthless. You pay for the NAME

    No better if not weaker than the TV speakers. There is absolutely NO bass control and too, it cannot be used in sync with the TV speakers because you get a reverb delay making the sound like in an echo chamber. I have a Bose tabletop radio, circa 2008, the produces wonderful bass in NO comparison to the weak Bose sound bar. Not only disappointing but money grab. You pay for a name and a nice box that produces nothing in respect to what the Bose name supposedly represents. Shop elsewhere.
