About the Bose® Solo 15 TV sound system

David Brown

Hear the rest of the story

Your TV isn't telling you the whole truth. It's only giving you a fraction of the detail embedded in movie and TV soundtracks. Set those details free with the Bose® Solo 15 TV sound system. It will fill your living room with clear dialogue, sparkling sound effects, and rich soundtrack music. Finding room for this single-box speaker system is a snap — it fits under your TV. It's 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.

Bose Solo 15 TV sound system

The Bose® Solo 15 TV sound system offers robust sound while fitting under your TV.

No more volume riding

Are you a volume-control jockey? If you're using your TV's weak speakers, you're probably always riding your remote's volume buttons to turn it up to hear dialogue only to turn it back down when things get loud. With the Solo 15, you'll be able to hear even whispered dialogue clearly, so you don't have keep reaching for the remote. If you're looking for a little more bass response, turn up the rear-panel bass knob and dial it in to your liking. It's also great for taming the bass if you place the system in a cabinet, which can cause the low frequencies to run a little wild.

Easy setup and control

Think this system is complicated to set up? No way — Bose® specializes in ease of use. The Solo 15 connects to your TV with a single cable. Optical and RCA audio cables are included, so it connects to just about any TV. The programmable universal remote can operate your TV, Blu-ray player, cable box, and other components as well as the Solo 15. In only a few minutes, you'll discover everything your TV's speakers have been hiding from you.

Features

Solo 15 TV Sound System: The Bose Solo 15 TV Sound System is a single speaker solution for your flat-panel TV that dramatically improves the sound of your favorite movies and TV shows. The Bose Solo requires only one audio cable connection to your TV and a connection to an AC power outlet.

5 Speaker Array w/ TruSpace Technology: The Bose Solo 15 employs a five speaker array along with proprietary TruSpace technology to produce a full, spacious sound that is wider than the TV screen. A dedicated center speaker along with digital signal processing enables clear, natural dialog at any volume. The two side-firing drivers along with TruSpace technology offer a greater sense of spaciousness. The result is more detail and better sound from your favorite TV shows and movies.

Bass Reflex Enclosure: Two rear-firing ports add greater efficiency and bigger bass to the speaker system.

Dialog Mode + Bass Level Knob: Dialog mode provides optimal sound quality for dialog-only programming, such as news and talk shows, by automatically adjusting the system's sound settings. The Solo 15 also features a bass level knob so you can adjust low-note performance to your liking.

Analog + Digital Inputs: The Bose Solo 15 speaker system is fitted with two digital inputs (optical/coaxial) and one stereo analog input (RCA), so you can connect virtually any TV. The optical and coaxial digital inputs support 2ch PCM and Dolby Digital. To enjoy the full benefit of hearing audio through the Bose Solo system, the internal speakers in your TV should be turned off.

Note: The digital optical output terminals of most newer flat-panel TVs only send an audio signal in 5.1ch when receiving Dolby Digital surround sound from the TV's built-in tuner, network connection, or connected USB device; and will output only 2ch stereo from sources connected to the TV via HDMI, or RCA (like your Blue-ray/DVD player or satellite/cable box).

Mounting Options: The Bose Solo 15 system is designed to fit under TVs that weigh no more than 75 lbs and have bases no wider than 24", and no deeper than 12.25".Most TVs 46" and smaller meet these requirements, and some 50" TVs will fit as well. You can also set it below a wall-mounted TV or larger table-top mounted TV, on a shelf or media cabinet.

Universal Remote Control: The Bose Solo 15 includes an IR universal remote control for wireless operation of the speaker system. You can also program the universal remote to control your TV, DVD, Blu-ray Disc player, cable/satellite box, game system, or DVR. You can also program most other manufacturer universal remote controllers to operate the Bose Solo 15 system.

Auto Power Off: The Solo 15 system will automatically power off after one hour if no audio signal is present.

Q
Which connection is best: Connect the Solo 15 directly to the TV or directly to the satellite box?

I connected mine directly to the TV and it works great.
basil  Jul 29, 2015

Satellite box. I tried it on three TVs and am currently connected to a Samsung 9000 series UHD - which has the separate "one connect box". I believe it is the same as connected from the TV.
dan  Jul 29, 2015

I own two Solo 15's. Both I have connected directly to the TV. One I use the optical connection for. The other TV has no optical connection so I use the old normal R/L audio cables. I hope that helps. They both sound great.
peter a  Jul 29, 2015

I can't say which is best but I connected directly to the TV and it works great.
james  Jul 28, 2015

I have connections to the TV sound is great, have not tried the sat box since TV works good.
lester  Jul 28, 2015

I connected mine directly to my Vizio TV and it works fine. I never thought about connecting to the satellite box. The entire setup only took a couple of minutes, if that.
steven  Jul 28, 2015
A
It depends on if your using your TV as the center of your system or not. I installed the Solo 15 for my parents and used the audio out from the TV into the Solo 15. I plugged their HDMI from their cable box into the TV, DVD player into the TV, even their old VCR into the TV. This way whatever is showing on the TV the sound would come through the Solo 15 without having to change the input on the Bose, only the TV input would change depending on the source device you choose. The quality of sound isn't better one way vs the other.
jim  Jul 28, 2015

I have it connected to the satellite box. Works great. Just turn off the tv speakers.
peter  Jul 28, 2015
Q
I have a 70" TV would the sound still be as good?
kphowe  Dec 23, 2014

Any outside speaker system has to sound better than the internal tv speakers so my guess would be yes.
peter  Jul 28, 2015

brenda  Jan 02, 2015

Haven't hooked it up yet. Plan on connecting to s Sony 42 inch.

Yes, I think the sound would be great with a 70 inch TV... Hope this helps you...

Q
Do I have to use a separate remote all the time for the volume control of this unit? Doesn't my existing TV remote control the volume through the TV?

I forwarded your question to an Advisor and they responded with the following: The Bose Solo 15 includes an IR universal remote control for wireless operation of the speaker system. You can also program the universal remote to control your TV, DVD, Blu-ray Disc player, cable/satellite box, game system, or DVR. You can also program most other manufacturer universal remote controllers to operate the Bose Solo 15 system.
