BOSE... There is no subsitute
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased my Bose Solo 5 to enhance TV audio experience. I use my TV to watch "traditional cable" and also "stream" movies, IHeart Radio and Pandora for music. This is the single entertainment device on the primary floor of the house. The Bose Solo 5 interfaced with my "low end" Sony LCD flat screen via "optical cable" The Bose Solo 5 was easily programed into my Xfinity Remote. This was painless... Bose unit turns on an off with the TV and cable box. I don't play music or TV shows loudly (I'm Married.. enough said) The Bose Solo 5 has met every objective I had for the everyday use intended. (I do have my separate man cave in the basement with the full monty setup the Bose Solo 5 is not in that room... the Bose Solo 5 is on the residence primary floor for everyday viewing/listening. I mounted the Bose Solo 5 under my Sony TV which is wall mounted via swing arm mount. I manufactured my own sound bar mount using simple angle iron, painted black and trimmed. See pic. The sound quality is excellent for the $250 price point. Bass is surprisingly good for unit without separate sub. The bass is adjustable via remote too. The Bose Solo 5 also has Blue tooth option for use with phone's or pc's. This works as expected. One negative... the Bose supplied optical cable was faulty out of the box and frankly could have been better quality if it had worked.
I would recommend this to a friend - Pros mentioned:Compact size, Remote control

Exceeded expectations!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was pleasantly surprised at the quality in the sound. I bought this open-box for $186 during social distancing and noticed when it was handed to me curbside the price tag said $149 and when I asked why was I overcharged was told they raised the price which I did not understand. It was missing the plug and had a wrong adapter but I was able to use the one from my old sound bar so if buying open box do check everything while there! But happy with the speaker which works better than the larger one bar we had and it takes up less room. The universal remote works great and setup was super easy.

Wow....$159 and packed with power...quality sound.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Looks great, the remote is VERY nice, and it really does pack some power. If you're looking to fill a large room with sound, then go elsewhere, but if you want to use it for a small to medium sized room, it's a wonderful deal. I got mine for $159 as they had a special for Elite Plus members. But even at retail price, it's a great deal. I originally bought it for a 55" TV, but put it on the shelf in the dining room, and it is a much better option than a shelf radio, and looks much better, too. So I'll get another one for the TV. At that price, and as good as they sound and look, I'll take two, please. The peeps @ North Canton Best Buy were very helpful and courteous as usual!! You can't go wrong w/ Bose...

Bose Solo 5 - 2.0 Soundbar......Great!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I do not normally believe in submitting reviews, but I will stray from my norm. This soundbar for it's size has pretty amazing sound quality, with good bass and mid tone depending on show broadcasting at time. Unit has auto sense so when you turn on TV, it automatically detects sound signal from source. The remote is big and solid with large buttons for people with nubby fingers so your sure to press the right selection/button. I mounted it on top of a Sony 40" led on tabletop stand utilizing insignia soundbar mount with some additional hardware and 8mm screws and cut to length for normal wall mount on back of TV from the blue store...works excellent and not in the way TV remote infrared signal! After all it is a Bose so quality sound is excellent for small soundbar !

Great sounds. Great Brand.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been dreaming to have a bose speaker ever since because of the good review in terms of sound quality. When a friend needed a speaker for his karaoke set up I have to let go and have to give him my preloved sound bar and buy a new sound bar for my self. Iweny to best buy and they showed me differend brands but I ended up buying BOSE solo 5. I experienced great quality of sound.

Small but powerful
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The size of the speaker saves us a lot of space as it competes with the old surround sound setups with bulky speakers and wires running around the place. We really enjoy this speaker bar.

Q: QuestionDo i need a subwoofer if i purchase the Bose soundbar
Asked by Anonymous.
- A:Answer You would not need to in my opinion, but it depends what you want the listening experience to be. The Bose 5 has adjustable bass, which is decent but not movie theater booming by any means. We use ours for watching tv and movies without a subwoofer.

Q: QuestionDo I need to buy any additonal cable, or wire connection? is this complicate to hook up to my TV? can you provide link of video of how to?
Asked by Bermuda01.
- A:Answer no, inside the box comes with all necessary cables, Coaxial, RCA and Also an optical cable, they are a bit short about 3 feets, but will get the job done to hook it up to any tv. Bluetooth is built in for wireless transmission. it s easy to setup, one end goes to the tv, the other to the soundbar, connect the power cord and you done.

Q: QuestionCan this soundbar be used to increase level of voices and decrease level of music background?
Asked by George.
- A:Answer Hello George, thank you for asking. On the Solo 5 you may adjust the level of the bass and you may enable the "dialog mode" to hear the voices more clearly.
Answered by Bose Support
Q: QuestionCan the soundbar sync with the TV so that you can use the TV remote to control the volume?
Asked by vin.
- A:Answer Most likely yes. Using IR codes you should be able to setup your remotes to control the soundbar's volume. For example, I setup my directv and apple tv remotes to control the volume.

Q: Questionmy tv hook up with cable box, do I hook to cable box or directly to tv? can u provide link how to?
Asked by bermuda01.
- A:Answer Hello there. Great questions. Usually the Cable box would connect to the TV first and then the Solo would connect to the TV's audio output. We have a video available here: http://bit.ly/21DoZGp that shows the setup. If you ever have any questions, we are here to help. Please do not hesitate to contact us at 800-380-4831.

Q: QuestionIs it ok to use the tv speakers and the sound bar at the same time? It seems to sound better than just using the sound bar.
Asked by postcard1.
- A:Answer For the best sound quality from this unit, it is ideal to have the internal tv speakers turned off.
Answered by Bose Support
Q: QuestionCan we connect this sound bar to my iPhone via Bluetooth?
Asked by Krish.
