Sounds great. A little trouble connecting app, but paired easily with my Samsung TV.

1.0 out of 5 stars BUYER BEWARE: IT WILL TURN INTO A USELESS BRICK

2026-01-13    -Earl

Bought this, a matching subwoofer, and two rear surround speakers hoping it would work as well as my old Bose entertainment system. I must say that I am deeply disappointed in the quality of the sound and the connectivity issues. Right out of the box, the remote control was half disassembled (the face fell right off). After six months, I'd have to power it down, disconnect, and reconnect it just to get the HDMI-ARC to work. Then, right immediately after 12 months, it stopped working completely. Now it is stuck in firmware update mode. Went to the Bose website and no luck there. Tried everything I found online about how to reset, update firmware, reset network, etc. Found out that it had turned itself into a useless brick. There is no support for this either. I've been stuck on hold from Bose for over 20 minutes as if my time does not matter.Ease of Installation: 1 star because the ports in the back are just too close to the wall. Modify or get different mounts.Sound Quality: 2 stars because the sound quality of the soundbar itself is nothing to write home aboutConnectivity: 0 stars because it does not stay connected using HDMI-ARC (and yes, I have the right cables)Quality: 0 stars because it is again, a brick.Overall rating: 0 stars because it has been a complete waste of my time, effort, and money. It is, after all, just a brick.

After u tune into this shiz ul realise jus how much u have been compromising on music quality. This is the most epic stage ive reached upto in terms of sound quality in the budget that i have. Ofcourse throw in the bass module n ul have tomorrowland at home. And ofcourse not to mention the higher end soundbar priced at 88k. Upgrade in 10yrs maybe

Great sound from this sound bar. Nice upgrade from my model 500. My only complaint is that you can’t use a hardline to connect to your network.This sound bar is a great value from Bose.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth every penny...even with larger TV's.

Great unit, great sound. Perfect for any TV, we have it mounted below our 75" Insignia 4k tv and it puts out plenty of sound. Very happy.

3.0 out of 5 stars Challenging to connect and operate; only moderate sound quality

I bought this soundbar because my wife has a hard time hearing dialogue on many TV shows. This model of Bose soundbar advertised a mode for clarifying dialogue, and that's why I bought it. In fact it DOES clarify dialogue quite significantly, and if that was the only thing I was rating it on, I'd have given it 5 stars. Unfortunately, this soundbar was difficult to set up, and not particularly intuitive to operate once it is set up. There is no user manual included with the product, just a link to download an app for mobile devices. The app is used for both setting up the product as well as operating it once it's set up. For starters, until I got the app I wasn't aware that the TV I intended to connect the soundbar to needed to have an ARC or eARC HDMI connection, OR an optical cable jack. Fortunately, mine had both. Once I had the electric power cord plugged into the soundbar's power jack and a wall outlet, and the HDMI cable connected to the soundbar's HDMI jack and the TV's ARC jack, then made sure the soundbar was connected to my wi-fi, and it's Bluetooth paired with my tablet, I turned on the TV to hear what the soundbar sounded like. I got nothing. Then it occurred to me that I didn't even know if the power to the soundbar was on, since there isn't a pilot light (a light to indicate power is ON) on the soundbar. Eventually I discovered that you need to look at the Bose app to see if the power is on or not. I ended up spending almost two hours trying, unsuccessfully, to get the TV's audio to play through the soundbar, at which point I wondered if it worked at all. I connected my tablet, via Bluetooth, to the soundbar and was able to get it to play music from an internet source, so I knew the soundbar's speakers and sound amplifier were working properly--just not from the TV. I disconnected the HDMI cable from the TV to the soundbar and replaced it with the optical cable that came with the soundbar. Still no sound from the TV to the soundbar. The app said if there was no sound, I might have to try different "CEC" settings, which are available on the app. I tried all 7 of those--again with no success. At that point I gave up, figuring I'd call the Bose help line the next day. The next morning I decided to look at the TV's menu to see if I was missing something. Turned out I was. I have an LG OLED TV, and on that model, in the menus system, you need to go to Audio Settings, deselect Internal Speakers and select ARC/optical audio output. I did that, but still no sound from the soundbar. Then I saw one more setting under Audio Settings on the TV--one that said SIMPLINK. It had two options, ON and OFF. It was set to OFF, and when I selected ON, I finally got sound from the soundbar! End of story, right? It should've been, but I've had the soundbar for less than a week, and have had numerous issues with it. Mind you, when it's on and in use with the TV, it works fine. What the app, nor any other source of information for the soundbar, doesn't tell you is that when you use your TV's remote to turn the TV on or off, it automatically also simultaneously turns the soundbar on or off. Also, if you use the soundbar's included remote to turn the soundbar on or off, it also turns the TV on or off. That would be okay if you always want the TV on when you use the soundbar, but if you, say, want to use the soundbar to listen to internet music, or music from your computer's music library, you don't want the TV on. Once both the TV and the soundbar are powered on, you can't use either the TV's or the soundbar's remote to turn off just the TV--you have to open the Bose app and select Bluetooth as the desired input first. This isn't mentioned anywhere in the app--I just learned it by experience. Another issue: sometimes when I turn on the TV, I get no sound from the soundbar, even though all the settings on both the TV and the soundbar are correct. The solution, I found, is to turn the TV off for 30 seconds or so, then turn it back on, at which time the soundbar usually starts working correctly. Another issue: When you turn on the TV, it sometimes takes almost a minute before sound starts coming through the soundbar.To be fair, it might be that there's a partial incompatibility between my TV and the soundbar, and that's what causes some of the issues I've experienced.As for the sound from the soundbar: Like I mentioned at the top of this review, the device does, indeed, significantly increase how well you can hear the dialogue in TV shows when you chose the AI dialogue optimization mode. As for music (via Bluetooth from computers/internet), the sound at normal listening volumes is mediocre at best, with the most notable issue being lack of bass response. At higher volume levels the sound becomes better. But that's for my ears--maybe other users of this device will experience better results, since everyone has different listening preferences.
