    I gave this to my daughter and son-in-law for Christmas and they love it. They said the sound is spectacular. I trust Bose to have wonderful sound. Apparently it was easy to set up and they can finally hear the TV again clearly. Wonderful gift for Christmas!

    This speaker works well with my Sam Sung tv, also replaces the use of Bluetooth portable rechargeable speakers. Purchased an open box unit that was in excellent condition, saved a few dollars.

    We use it for our "Rear L-R" surround fill-NICE!

    I would give this unit 5 stars, except for the lack of LEDs on the front panel to monitor the status of the soundbar (read below). The sound is excellent for what I'm using it for. I didn't want to run a bunch of wire and hang satellite speakers for my 5.1 rear L-R speakers, so I'm using this soundbar for my rear L-R channels. It sits under the TV and incredibly fills in the gap between the front L-R main speakers. The dispersion is excellent -- exactly what Bose is famous for. (NOTE: This unit is amplified, so do not shoot hot amplified audio from your amp's speaker outputs unless you can pad it down! My Onkyo surround tuner lets me set each output as low as -14dB, which is perfect for not over-driving the input of the Bose.) I use the analogue AUX input jack to feed in the speaker-out signal from the amp. The "dialogue" setting really does clarify speech in shows & movies where there is a lot of background EFX or music going on. Mids & highs are crystal clear -- no sibilance. Now, about those cheesy LED's... This unit only has 2 LED's on the front to let you know what mode you're in, etc. The LED's change color, blink in various ways, stay solid, etc., for each function. I had to download the complete manual and keep the page for the LED Mode Table handy to keep track of what I was setting up. For $279, Dr. Bose should have added a few more (inexpensive) LED's to the front panel. This was a real design flaw. Simplicity is fine if it doesn't make things complicated. Lastly, when in auto power-down mode, it takes about 2 hours to power off when there is no signal present -- kinda silly. 10 minutes makes more sense. I do not use this unit with any outboard sub-woofer, as my Boston Acoustic mains give all the thump we need. If you are using this (as intended) strictly for a TV speaker, you may want to add a small sub-woofer. You can easily connect one with a patch cord, via the 1/8" sub-out jack on the back. The price of this unit is way too much, but I paid it because it's Bose and it was the best sounding bar in this size range with an analogue input.

    I was fortunate to find an open box version of this so I paid less money and the item arrived in perfect condition. The sound quality is really nice (so much better than relying on the inadequate speaker on the TV). Great Bose quality and the price was right.

    Like our soundbar. It goes well with our TV. I like that we don't need to use another controller, it works with the TV controller. The sound is great, but we're also not super picky. We got it so we wouldn't need to turn up the TV volume so high.

    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.

    Works good and sounds great on the Samsung TV but the Earc connection doesn’t work that great with the 32 inch Samsung TV. Had to switch to the optical input snd everything started to work correctly. Dont know if the problem was with tge TV or the soundbar. It was frustrating the connection would stop and the TV would switch to the tv speaker setting and would have to unplug the hdmi cable for it to switch back to the speaker. After using the optical no ptoblems.

    Very simple but very good soundbar. It doesn't have a bunch of bells and whistles like my last one but at the same time, fewer settings/options makes it much easier to setup and manage. And the sound is as good as any other mid-range bar I've tried.

    Having owned several Bose products we had high hopes for this reasonably priced product. Extremely impressed with this small bar and it’s big base sound. No separate woofer needed; this sound bar augments our LGGX in a very open living area with ease. This was our fourth attempt to find a sound device that did not sound like an auditorium speaker and render high quality sound without big bucks.

    It sounds great. Got it for a bedroom television. Great size for a limited space, and a smaller room. Would suggest getting a larger and a little more expensive sound bar for a large living room or large basement entertainment room.

    The sound bar was very easy to hook up and pretty much ready to go out of the box. I use it for my Xbox series X, and it gives great source when compared to the regular tv sound. Definitely worth the purchase.
