[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I really like this new TV Speaker by Bose. The sound quality on this speaker is great. Compared to the tv on its own, the sound bar outshines the sound by a mile. This was extremely easy to setup as all I had to do was plug the speaker in the wall and one cord to my tv and it worked.
I liked the bluetooth aspect of this as well as it was very easy to connect the speaker to my phone and play music through it. The speakers worked just a good with my phone as it did going through the tv.
The remote is a little small and might be easy to loose if you don't put it in a specific place, but is not a deal breaker. I really like that it has space on the back to add more bass later on if I so choose. Overall I really like this TV Speaker!

Great sound quality!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This Bose TV Speaker adds such a depth of sound to our entertainment experience! The setup could not have been easier or gone more smoothly! The TV sound bar is slightly bulkier than some but it definitely provides the sound quality that you know and love from Bose. The small remote makes for a very easy user experience and allows you to adjust settings from your seat. You can not only hook your TV and speaker system in one but you can also Bluetooth your mobile device to the speaker. The base adds such a professional sound to our usual movies. I highly recommend this Bose TV Speaker to ANYONE & EVERYONE!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This has been a great sound addition to my t.v. This speaker was very easy to setup and very fast. It gives the extra boost to the sound functions. You can set your preference level of base and treble to give you more of a theater effect. Sound is very clear. There is also a wake option so the speaker turns on with your t.v. another option is connecting your devices bluetooth. This has been great for streaming music and movies. I'm finally getting the sound I was looking for.

Full, rich sound from a small soundbar

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have had this soundbar for one week and have been nothing but happy with its performance and sound quality. The clear, rich sound, even at louder volume, shows the superior design and use of high quality components. The bass levels are also very good on its own, with the ability to adjust the bass level from the remote. The TV dialogue was also very clear using this soundbar, even without enabling the dialogue mode. I have also used the Bluetooth connection from my phone and it sounds great. I have only used the optical connection to connect to my TV and the setup was very easy. My only concern is that the remote is very small and could be easy to misplace. Overall, I would recommend this soundbar.

Easy set up, excellent sound quality

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I got this Bose TV Speaker for my TV as the sound was not very loud on it's own. I was happily surprised by how easy it was to set up. Just literally plug in and use. It came with different cords including the actual plug in adaptor and an optical cord. I plugged it in, connected the optical cord to my TV. I followed the directions in the manual for proper set up. Then turned it on and turned it up. The sound quality is very good. The sound is crisp and clear and can get really loud without the static sound like my TV would have if I had it turned up without the speaker. The look is simple and sleek and the speaker runs the whole length of it. It gives it a good surround sound and doesn't take up too much space. You could even probably put this on a shelf or hang on the wall.
I did receive this for testing purposes but the opinions here are based on my own experiences.

Have the Solo 5. Was really excited to get this new soundbar. Hooked it up via HDMI ARC as soon as it was delivered. It turned on fine with the cable remote but would take as little as 1 minuet to 5-6 minutes for the sound to kick in thru the soundbar. And yes, the TV was set to bypass TV speakers. I also cleared data & cache as well as power reset the TV & nothing worked. When the sound was on, it sounded amazing in our master bedroom. A big improvement compared to the Solo 5. The dialogue is much more in the forefront. Would've been great if it worked properly. Returning it & going back to the Solo 5 we had which works fine.

Hi Pete! I'm pleased to hear you loved the sound quality of the Bose TV speaker. I'm disappointed to hear you had some difficulties connecting it to your TV - the issue you described is very unusual. Were you able to test the speaker with another TV for reference? Also, I would've advised trying to connect using the optical cable to see if this acted any differently. We'd love to answer any queries and assist you further so you can use this speaker with your TV. Please reach out to us directly at https://bose.life/38Q1vZs.
