Good but not Great

I’ve had this soundbar for a couple weeks now and for the most part really like it. For the price point during the Labor Day sale it’s pretty impressive. Would not recommend paying full price. The bass is fairly weak even when put to full base mode. The bluetooth works with my phone, but the changeover back to TV is cumbersome. It also doesn’t come on when the tv is turned on even with an HDMI cable plugged into the ARC port. And THAT feature is one of the reasons I bought it so I wouldn’t have to use 2 remotes all the time. All in all - not a bad product.

I bought this Bose TV Speaker to connect it to my 100" TV, and I could not be happier with the purchase. The crisp sound really makes my room an ultimate "movie experience!" And the one-touch dialogue enhancement button is so clutch!! As someone with tinnitus, it is always difficult to watch TV or movies and catch everything the characters are saying, but that dialogue enhancement puts me "in the action!"

Great Sound and a Decision I'm Glad I Made

I bought this a month ago and I’m very happy with my decision to purchase the Bose TV Speaker. There are so many mixed reviews online that I was honestly a little confused and hesitant at first, but I’m glad I took the step and bought it.
I have an older flat-screen TV without HDMI audio options, but even using an optical cable, the sound quality is impressive. The audio is clear, powerful, and makes watching TV much more enjoyable. Overall, I’m very satisfied with my purchase and would definitely recommend it, for those seeking an entry-level, standalone soundbar...

Dissapointed

I was disappointed that the sound bar doesn't have the full rich sound that my very old accoustic wave music system has. I also find the dialogue mode seems to just make it louder not clearer. I guess with the name Bose I expected more.

Another high-quality Bose sound experience
on August 5, 2026

I don't think I've ever been disappointed by a Bose product. The sound quality produced by this relatively small speaker is extraordinary. It is not surround sound, but there is clear separation, strong base, and very importantly, extremely clear voices. My husband often has to use a hearing aid to listen to the TV, but not with this speaker. I was also pleasantly surprised by the BlueTooth capability of the speaker: when I play music from my iPhone through the speaker, it sounds like I'm playing the music through a room-filling sound system. My only very slight complaint is that it sometimes does not engage when I turn on my Samsung Q7F TV, so I have to manually turn off the sound bar and turn it on again to get the connection re-established. I highly recommend this purchase.
