    The Bose TV Speaker Bluetooth Soundbar is an excellent choice for anyone wanting simple setup and rich sound quality. The audio is clear and well-balanced, making both TV shows and music enjoyable. Connections are very straightforward — I used the optical fiber input for sound and it worked flawlessly right out of the box. The design is sleek, and the Bluetooth pairing makes it easy to switch over to streaming from a phone. Overall, a great value with impressive performance for its size.

    Although I’ve only been using it for a couple days, I’m already so in love with it. I was looking for a soundbar that would enhance my TV experience in my bedroom as well as a good bluetooth sound system to listen to music. I was very impressed by the bass and the sound this little machine can produce. So easy to set up, literally 3 steps! Very sleek design and fits perfect under my TV. I’ve purchased headphones and speakers from Bose in the past and have never been disappointed. If you’re looking for more bass heavy sound or using this for a bigger room, I would recommend getting a subwoofer to accompany it. It’s perfect for what I wanted!

    I read a lot of online reviews for budget soundbars and eventually narrowed my options down to the Bose TV Speaker and the Sonos Ray. I listened to both on the floor at Best Buy, but honestly, that didn’t help much with the decision. In the end, I chose the Bose after doing more research on bass output. After installing it and using it for a few months, here’s my take: Simply put, the Bose TV Speaker is a really nice upgrade from a TV’s internal speakers. The bass has a nice little punch, and the overall sound clarity is very good. This speaker won’t rattle the room or blast the neighborhood, but that’s not really its purpose. If you have a small room or a space that isn’t meant to be a full home theater, you’ll likely be very satisfied with this upgrade. Shows and movies have clearer dialogue, and when the moment calls for it, you get nice bass that simply wasn’t there before. In addition, I used the HDMI eARC connection to integrate with the TV remote. It works, but seems a bit finicky at times.

    Bose is sound king

    Bose does it again. Crisp detailed sound. Great for at home movie nights. And perfect for gaming. I can hear the enemy's footsteps and my team talking with out having to use my headset. Love the sleak design. Fits under my tv if I want it to sit flushed. Not this bulky speaker that takes up space and seems to be all you see. Most tv speakers can be bulky but not thse. Love the bluetooth capabilities. Makes life easier. Easy setup. Even packaging was done well. No bulky boxes so I'm able to save the box for when I move. Remote is perfect medium size. I have lost and stepped on and broken other brand speakers made so cheaply. So I appreciate this remotes size yet not the size. Bose has been my favorite brands for headphones so I'm glad I gave speaker a change. It's worth every penny. And this company is amaze with their customer service if needed. I highly recommend it.

    Better sound really helps improve TV watching

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

    This Bose TV Speaker dramatically improves the sound from my TV. Speech and mid frequencies are much easier to hear and discern. With the built-in speakers speech was sometimes indistinguishable and I had to increase the volume to occasional uncomfortable levels. There is now bass and some rumble where there was previously none. The highs are also improved from the built-in TV speakers, there is some sparkle and increased clarity there as well. This improvement is noticed most dramatically when watching movies or concerts, but regular everyday, casual watching benefits as well. Once you get use to the better sound it is difficult to go without a soundbar for your television. Setup was easy and straight-forward, I tried both optical and HDMI-ARC connections and settled with HDMI-ARC due to preferring the volume control integration with the original TV remote. The speakers are thin and blend in well with the television and stand.

    I've enjoyed using the new Bose TV speaker. It's a nice size as to not take up too much space, discrete enough to not clash with any decor and works supremely well. Features that I really like are the bass control to really dial a nice level of base to fit what's being played or watched. Additionally, I enjoy the feature that boosts dialogue to make it easier to decipher. Overall, it's a great piece of tech and will be enjoying it for years to come.

    I bought this for a travel trailer. It does what I need it to. When using it for listening to talking, it reproduces bass a little too much. But for music and movies it does very well in my opinion for the size, and money. When I was running the ac I could barely hear the tv at max volume, and now the problem is solved, so I’m happy.

Setup is quick and easy, and the sleek design fits well in any living room. For the price, it’s a fantastic upgrade from standard TV speakers — powerful, reliable, and worth it.

    Better than other reviews say

    For a simple, small speaker; this does pack a decent punch. While this will never compete with a home theater setup, or even a standard 2.1 setup; it does elevate the TV speakers while also adding in some bass. Its small size makes it easy to place anywhere, mine is under my TV (which is on the standard legs that came with the TV, not wall mounted). I would recommend this for someone who wants better sound quality than the TV speakers provides, but doesn't want to deal with the hassle of a full A/V Receiver setup. I would not go in expecting this to sound like a movie theater, as you will be disappointed. Well worth the money and I strongly recommend for anyone who is not happy with just the TV speakers.

    Bose-TV Speaker Soundbar

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

    I bought the Bose Soundbar for our TV that has a speaker rattle. The size of the soundbar is good and fits easily in front of the TV base. With the TV speaker turned off, the Bose unit works well. The Dialog switch is nice for programs with a lot of dialog, as it boosts the treble for clearer speech. The normal setting has more bass which is good for movie soundtracks. The one thing I don't like is that you can set it to turn on with your TV but you can't set it to turn off with your TV, which makes no sense. You have to remember to turn it off separately from your TV. Bose needs to change this. Otherwise, I am happy with its performance.

    Small in design and great in sound. Doesn't take up too much room and is definitely an upgrade in terms of sound quality from previous entry level bose soundbars. Very easy to setup as well. You can easily add a bass module from Bose with an 3.5 aux cable. No HDMI eARC connection though, if that is what you need. A little steep at $280, but open box is more worth it.

    Great sound bar, sounds incredibly loud for it size. Only problem I’ve been having is every time I turn on my TV have to go into tv speakers and again into hdmi port. But will leave it on a maybe since might be the tv and not the bar itself.
