Bose Smart Ultra Soundbar, Surround Sound System for TV, Dolby Atmos Soundbar for TV Plus Alexa and Google Voice Control, White

We finally replaced our Bose home theatre system. This is a great sound bar and works well with the Bose bass box. It has a lot of smart features. Easy to set up. Good replacement of their last legacy home theatre system. We have 2 Bose sound bars in our home, and we love the quality of the sound, product and service support.

Perfect sound, perfect design and the build quality is just top notch. Just what you would expect from Bose.

The Bose Smart Ultra Soudbar is beautifully built and finished. Though compact, it provides phenomenal sound quality.Let me tell you, the setup was so simple - it took a single cable to hook to the television!There is a remote control that covers the basics, including powering the bar on and off, adjusting the volume, playing and pausing content, and selecting your input.After I put the soundbar in position and connected to the TV with power, I downloaded the "Bose Music Control" app, which is free for iOS and Android. This app gives you control of the soundbar and puts you in charge of the Adaptiq automatic room calibration system.The Smart Ultra Soundbar is compatible with Amazon Alexa and works with Google assistant if the appropriate smart speaker is on a common network. I didn't explore integrating the other Bost speakers, but it appears to be possible.There is a touch control on the top surface of the soundbar if you want to override the integrated microphone. If you leave the voice enabled, it is quick and easy to get what you want from the Bose simply by just asking. I'd say that I was impressed by the reliability of responses to my request. Apple AirPlay2 is available and Chromcast is built in. Also, you don't have to toggle to use the voice feature.The system essentially calibrates itself to your environment quickly and accurately and has plenty of control options. When it comes to sound quality, immediately the sound is very clear and reasonably balanced. We are audiophiles (record collection, love movies, amateur music room in home) and while dialogue enhancement and bass features are both available, I didn't need to use right away. I believe this is due to the True Space feature.It was hard to believe that such dynamic sound came from the compact soundbar, but I've had the Bose CD system for years. The spatial audio that comes from the bar is impressive. I didn't notice a significant difference in space and height of the sound, which was a concern initially after reading other reviews.You can utilize HDMI, ARC and wireless Bluetooth connections.Be prepared to have everything you watch feel like you're in an enhanced movie type of setting.One of my kids was playing the game while the soundbar was on. I was absolutely and thoroughly entrenched with the effects and he was thoroughly surprised that I had interest. It was the Bose sound.The unit comes at a reasonable price, especially considering it feels like you're on a quality soundstage.The package was delivered to my office and I was able to carry it. It fit across the backseat of my vehicle and set-up was easy.

I have loved Bose until this junk. The software keeps crashing and requires a reboot to have sound. I can’t find a TV it plays well with. The sound quality is just ok. I could not get it to just turn on with the TV or the volume to work without the Bose remote. I had to use my TV remote for channel selection and the Bose remote for volume. The subwoofer started popping at about a year. I pulled it all out and replaced it with a Roku surround system that is awesome for under 500.00. I wasted $2,000.00. On this set up. Save your sanity and stay away from this junk.

It sounds very good for a unit containing 9 small speakers. Compared to a stereo system with much larger speakers, it sounds small. Those that want powerful bass will want a subwoofer.I paid $568 for the white soundbar, new on sale. Very happy with it for the price. For $899, probably would have returned it.I bought it to play music from Amazon music. The volume controlled by the remote is a feature that I wanted. If you have Amazon music, you know that song volume varies greatly with each song. I didn't like having to verbally activate Alexa to change volume. This solves that.Setup for me was not a 2 minute process as a video on You Tube from Bose would suggest. Took 20 minutes to get it done.It does sound very good and gets plenty loud. I expected too much from it as far as how big of a sound it produces. Last month I purchased 2 Bose L1 pro 16 units to replace my main stereo system. Thinking that this unit could come anywhere close to the sound of that system was my fault.A nice looking, well built unit with very good sound. Just don't compare it to a large loudspeaker system.

Si eres de los que aprecias el buen audio , la eficiencia del sonido , en fin la calidad tienes que comprar este producto , aparte de ser muy fácil de usar es muy práctico , se configura en menos de 20 min y su alcance es bien alto, se conecta al televisor , al teléfono , en todos lados de la casa se escucha igual , estoy alucinando de la calidad que tiene este producto , lo volvería a comprar , lo recomiendo 100%

“Smart” speaker may be a bit of a stretch. I suppose if you define “smart” as requiring an app to operate and regularly going through your own “smart” tv’s settings to get the speaker to actually work whilst downloading “updates” for some purpose other than making the speaker function better. Sound is Bose quality, when it works after you’ve spent a good five minutes getting it to connect. O and in the app it makes you download so Bose can track and sell your data it gives you these 7 funny options on how if the sound bar and TV don’t work/function as expected you can toggle with some hope of achieving your desired effect or at least giving you this elusion. If you call customer support they’ll inform you that this “smart speaker” needs to be plugged in to an actual computer…………. So what’s the point of the app and “Smart” moniker? Honestly I’d take a “dumb” speaker that works at this point. Adding to the utter stupidity and inadequacy of this speaker. You have to be connected to the same WiFi in order for the speaker to function. Let me explain. Let’s say you’re a hard working parent who leaves early for work, your kids want to watch tv before school. They can’t, because the “dumb” speaker won’t connect and play audio from the TV unless told to by you via the app which is useless unless you’re home on your WiFi……………. I honestly expected better from Bose
