Hollywood keeps delivering high-end audio to your living room, but it’s useless unless you have the right sound system to drive it. Can this $280 soundbar from Bose give you the clarity you crave when it comes to indecipherable dialogue? Or is it overpriced and not worth your money?

Ithink people are buying them for their airbnb.
I’ve gotten hyped for years over the latest and greatest Bose speakers. But they always fall flat. They literally sound flat and lifeless, and I have no idea why my ears can’t hear what the masses of people can hear. I hear flat, lifeless, muted … boring sound. With every Bose product I’ve ever bought and subsequently returned, starting around 1990 with the bose home theater cubes, remember those? The cubes on spikes with a bass module. God, what a huge waste of money. Fast-forward to now, and I made the mistake of buying a highly rated Bose bluetooth speaker. Sounded dull and lifeless like all other Bose products.
There are always better options out there, often for less money. Personally, I prefer bright, clear highs and strong mids, with some ass-thumping bass. You won’t get any of that from any Bose product, not now, not ever. Stop buying it, and maybe they’ll be motivated to make something inspiring that actually delivers on the price.
So… when do we get mass comparisons of products again? Getting a singular product review doesn’t help much when in a huge field of other products. Need comparisons and a suggestion again. lol
Thank you for this review because I am not getting this thing. 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉❤❤❤❤❤
Bose speaker’s sound really great when you are drunken. Bose engineers might make it when they drunken
I’m with you on this…
Never liked the Bose sound. It’s … just bland… but not flat, it’s not a flat frequency response… just kind of muddy all over.
300$ !?
To much
I think this review missed the mark. This thing isn’t for Bass or home theatre – hence why it’s called "TV Speaker".. It’s actually pretty good for it’s compact size. This is a bedroom TV soundbar. This is a soundbar that radically increases soundstage and makes dialogue clear while still being able to hear other sounds all at a reasonable volume for a smaller, more chill space. This is the soundbar you get when your wife, like mine, constantly bitches the volume is too loud. With this soundbar I can hear everything clearly and my wife isn’t bothered.
FYI this is down to $200 now. If you want a standalone soundbar to expand the soundstage and deliver clear dialogue with at least a sense that there is bass happening, but don’t actually want that booming bass or have someone sensitive to it around, I would recommend this. I already have a nicer Vizio 5.1 with the sub and the surrounds. The whole reason I got the Bose was because it’s small, unobtrusive and delivers excellent sound for such a small package. That is what this is. Why compare it to soundbars with subs? It’s a really good TV speaker FFS..
Damn. We really got the Bose 901s 2.0 before GTA 6.
Im listening to this video through my new Bose sound bar though i can’t really hear what hes saying, is he saying good things about it?
Question to the room what would I get for 269 bucks based on ac speaker set up and could I connect them together?
I miss Anthony @ Emily. i dont know the rest but i dearly need you.
Thanks for the spot-on review, anyone knows about the Creative V2 2.1 Soundbar?
I think you would have to import this soundbar but it’s really really value for money it’s name is zebronics zeb juke bar 9900 725 watt , i would really like you test it .
I still use a Dennon 7.1 surround reciever with a powered sub.
The quality of everyones listening experience has deopped significantly since smartphones and BT spkrs came about.
I bought the Bose TV speaker a few weeks ago & I love it. It delivers plenty of bass & an overall great sound. I’m not sure what this guy is looking for, but for $270 I can’t imagine a better bang for the buck.
I bought the Vizio 2.0 after watching this video and was extremely disappointed, the sound quality is alright for YouTube and gaming, until I watch Netflix I can hear the constant humming/buzzing sounds. Also, the fabric outside of the speaker will trap dirt overtime. I immediately returned Vizio speaker back to Amazon.
I have one and i love the way it sounds, its kinda warm sounding. I also got it for 120 and live in an apartment so i can’t get anything too loud
yo
Bose was exactly what i needed. Only 1 cable needed [power] (it has bluetooth!) Headphone jack! And no subwoofer that gathers dust on the floor 🙂 Its great soundbar for PC don’t listen "you need subwoofer" guys.
I use a Hisense AX5120g
I just bought the sony ht s400. Its an awesome sound bar for the price. Great bass and loud clear sound.
Change settings on tv.
The 5 stars is from all the people happy to own BOSE at a reasonable price.
thanks
I am confused how the LG 60TR with 440 watts , too much bass is in the same price range as a Vizio 510 (180 watts)
Bose marketing campaign should be studied at universities… they sell products that perform 1/5 of other professional brands at double the price…
I miss Anthony
Bro is talking about sound quality without giving examples. Like talking about colours to a blind guy.. Get a haircut
I picked up a old lg avr with 5.1 speakers and arc for £89 3 years ago the price of that sound bar is ridiculous I say that now I have over 2 ,000 surround sound equipment XD
No Highs No lows must be Bose!
no high’s no low’s must be Bose
Honestly I am here because I decided to not rely on Amazon reviews, kind of disappointed that a good part of your review is based on it.
I disagree with parts of this review. I just bought this Bose TV speaker soundbar and I’m quite happy with it. It is designed to be for smaller second TVs up to 50 inches or so and for very small rooms or studio apartments. I have my TV in a corner and I’m happy with the bass output at the default level and prefer it with the dialogue enhancement off. The soundbar scales very well in terms of sound signature depending on whether you give it 2 channel PCM or 5.1 Dolby Digital. You really need to set it up to bypass the Dolby Digital stream from your streaming device and TV to the soundbar to get the right effect for movies and avoid any lip sync issues. While they don’t provide an HDMI cable, I think this is to ensure that people don’t have to bother with setting up the audio correctly with HDMI. The soundbar can learn your TV’s volume controls, so HDMI CEC isn’t necessarily an issue and it means that TVs before HDMI ARC are also supported. If you have a smart tv of any kind, you can stream audio to it and it’ll just playback on the soundbar so why does it need the BOSE app anyway or even bluetooth for that matter? It can get warm sometimes and that’s something they ought to improve on and I wish they included the wall mount brackets in the box. Some people have supposedly used a third party subwoofer with it, but I don’t think it needs it. Most people buying this don’t want something too noisy that will disturb the neighbours. I agree that this thing sounds good at low volumes. The compact size will appeal to many people as well. The product does what it says on the box and in a sea of products that often don’t, people just want something reliable. It definitely isn’t a home theatre product, but rather the speakers your TV ought to have come with. If you buy from Bose, you can just return it if you’re not happy with it. So often we have to buy audio products without ever listening to them and Bose’s return policy really stands out.
Or … enable subtitles and save a lot of money :).
This is a fantastic channel, Fraser! I would love to know more about how in-situ resource utilisation (ISRU) works and how it will scale up to become a valuable part of the manned Mars Missions. I’m also assuming the choices of propellants for SpaceX’s Starship are such because the ISRU is able to supply the right fuel and oxidizer for the job. Are there better options that are easy to produce/capture?

279 a year later not cool
Bought this for my computer speaker since bose stopped making the companion. It’s perfect, fits right underneath my monitor.
I’ll buy a Vizio.
Linus is testing out the Bose 300 sound bar which is the lowest basic sound bar that Bose sells, the Bose 600 is meant to replace the 300 which is much better which now has true Dolby Atmos where they also include HDMI cable and at around same price or $50 more. So if Linus reviewed the 600 then it would have been much better. There’s also the Bose 500 sub woofer that you can pair with the sound bar.. but that’s a added extra that most people won’t need unless they use the sound bar in a large room. The sound bar is designed for bedrooms without the sub woofer.
I have bose soundbar 500+ subwoofer 500 + surround speakers and its awesome
