A popular Bose® TV sound upgrade — now with Bluetooth®
The Bose® Solo 15 Series II system offers robust sound and fits right under your TV.
Place the pedestal-like Bose® Solo 15 Series II TV sound system under your television and give your favorite movies and shows a serious boost in audio quality. Crutchfield customers praised the original system for easy hook-up and clear dialogue along with big, exciting sound effects. This time around, the Bose® Solo 15 Series II system offers all that, plus built-in Bluetooth. Send tunes wirelessly from your smartphone or tablet, and enjoy clear, dynamic Bose® sound.
Steady foundation for your TV
The Bose® Solo 15 Series II system is large enough to hold most TVs with screen sizes up to 46 inches and some even larger. The rock-solid construction can support up to 75 pounds, which is twice the weight of a typical 42-inch LCD TV.
Easy-to-hear dialogue at any volume
Are you always mashing your remote's volume buttons to hear dialogue, then turning it back down when things get loud? With the Bose® Solo 15 Series II system, there's no need to do that. You'll be able to hear even whispered dialogue clearly at reasonable volumes. There's also a "Dialogue mode" that makes speech even more audible.
The system has wide sound dispersion, which means there's not likely to be a bad seat in the room. And the bass? Movie effects and music will both benefit from deep low-end impact. You can use the rear panel bass knob to dial-in just the right amount of bass response.
Easy setup and control
Bose® specializes in making things easy to hook up and use right away. This system connects to your TV with a single cable. Optical digitial and analog stereo RCA audio cables are included. The programmable universal remote can operate your TV, Blu-ray player, cable box, and other components as well as the Bose® Solo 15 Series II system. In only a few minutes, you'll discover everything your TV's speakers have been hiding from you.

We now go straight to Bose products, avoiding all the esoteric technical data of tedious comparisons, and this unit did not disappoint. It was simple to set up; the sound quality is excellent for our purpose (movies); the compact size fit perfectly in our confined space.
