Great TV speaker

Perfect blend of quality sound and dialogue. The volume won't blow you away, but it's not supposed to. If you want loud floor shaking base and sound, look elsewhere. If you want good dialogue and quality sound that won't wake the kids while still being able to hear voices clearly, then this is it!

A non Bose powered sub woofer will not work with this soundbar. Product overview does not sate this. The soundbar has great sound without one, but you don't get that floor shaking fun of a sub.

Great Sound Bar

The information on the website was great in helping me decide on a sound bar. I was looking for one that would improve dialog and allow me to hear voices better. I also did not want to pay a lot for the product. The Bose TV Speaker was just what I was looking for.

Disappointed in Bose

I'm a little disappointed in the dialogue in movies. Not very clear. I'm 77 years old and hearing is not that good. I'm planning on getting a better speaker (on my wish list) if and when we get a stimulus check. Thanks

Great for hearing whispered dialogue

My wife and I have been asking one another the same question a lot lately,,,"What did he/she say" while listening to our flat-screen tv. While producing exceptional video quality, most of the flat-screens leave much to be desired when it comes to audio reproduction. On the recommendation of a friend, I purchased the Bose TV speaker for our older model SONY Bravia and have never been happier with the audio. With the dialogue enhancing feature, we now rarely find it necessary to ask that familiar question any more. Better all around sound as well as the ability to actually decipher whispered dialogue and especially words which are spoken in a different accent. Great purchase and at the price we got from Crutchfield's "open box" option, we are very pleased with our purchase.

Good sound. Much better than the sound of cheap speakers that today's TVs bring.

Tv speaker works very well,the tv speech clarity mode is quite subtle however it makes the dialogue more pronounced not just louder like other systems I have tested in the past and,I have quite a bit of hearing loss so it is a great help. Also the Bluetooth works well for streaming music the sound is decent even with a sub, which of course would enhance the bass. The only short coming is without the remote you are up the creek and the manual is very basic

Perfect TV audio upgrade

I bought this for our bedroom tv. An outstanding value for the price. Sounds great and easy to set up. This is a nice upgrade to your tv's built-in speakers where space and budget are limited and a full home theater sound system would be overkill. An added benefit is the bluetooth connection, making this an easy, high quality audio upgrade for music and podcasts from your phone or tablet.

This speaker is extremely helpful. I have a 55 inch flat panel Sony TV. Great TV but in watching a movie recently I had to turn the volume up to 76. That motivated me to buy the speaker. As advertised movie dialog is clearer and easier to hear. What is surprising is that I can hear regular programming like newscasts across the room rather than in front of the television. I heartily recommend this very simple add on.

Retired

I have just received my Bose TV Speaker and have just begun to set it up. I bought this soundbar for the use that I am planning to receive from it. this includes the ports provided, its speaker design, and the long awaited single operation with only one controller.

Bose TV Speaker Great Upgrade to Wall Mounted TV

The TV in our bedroom is wall mounted. The sound from the TV was not great and the dialog from most of the programs was difficult to hear and we had to turn up the volume to get adequate clarity. So we decided to try the Bose TV Speaker. It is a great improvement over the TV's speakers. The dialog is much clearer and we don't have to crank up the volume. We also hear things we missed with just the TV's speakers. We used the Bose SoundBar Brackets to mount the Bose TV Speaker to the wall. See my review of the SoundBar Brackets.

Easy set up. Remote a bit fussy. Dialog clarity a plus. My older TV (11 years) did not produced buzzing when programs were not running so the TV was replaced. The optical feed is easy to plug in. Now to get the TV remote to also control the sound bar.

Capable and cost effective

Bose named it exactly what it is useful for - a tv speaker, not a home theater speaker. Excellent mid-level sound bar for our workout room tv. Connected to tv with the ARC HDMI and responds seamlessly with tv remote or streaming stick remote. The Bose remote is only needed for adjusting bass. Dialogue is clear but we are happy with the bass output and music quality for such a slim, small unit as we didn't want a subwoofer for the workout room (and it would need to be wired to the sound bar). The bass is adjustable with the included remote. For streaming workouts on the tv or casual tv watching, this sound bar fits the bill. For home theater use or for larger rooms, would need a subwoofer and/or upsizing.

Good Things In Small Packages

FINALLY ...the soundbar I've been looking for! My priority was dialogue. The two POLK units dialogue was severely nasal with women with high pitched voices and children. I couldn't understand most of what they said. A lot of my problem is probably age related.. I'm 78. This little Bose bar however, has solved the problem. It is amazing! I was concerned about not having a sub woofer but the bass is more than adequate! In spite of three returned soundbar purchases, Crutchfield continued to work with me. THANK YOU! Crutchfield will be my go to store for all things audio/video related in the future.

Great vocal clarity

The mid and high end clarity is great, but as expected the bass is lacking. Great upgrade to the terrible TV speakers though.

Bose TV Speaker

I bought this sound at because I couldn't hear dialogue when watching movies on a Blu-ray DVD player. It does the job and sounds great as BOSE should. There are times when the sound level on the sound bar increases or decreases after changing channels and mysteriously increases or decreases the sound when the remote is not being held or touched. Can't explain why it's happening.

Sound is deep and full. Set up was super easy. My only complaint is that it seems cheap of Bose not to include a super duper HDMI cable.
