Described as the ‘best Bose soundbar to date’, which is saying a lot as seeing they are the market leaders and have released some corkers in the past few years.
It is solid in perfectly delivering films, music and dramatic box sets, whereas some others on the market excel in one area and are poor in the others. ADAPTiQ audio room calibration optimises the system’s acoustic performance to the unique characteristics of your room, so no matter how much furniture or how minimalistic the room is, you will still get perfection delivered.
A remote control is included, but with Amazon Alexa built-in, you don’t need to reach for it when you want to turn the volume up or change the song on Spotify. You can even ask it a question as normal. Thanks to the eight integrated microphones, it won’t struggle to hear you when you’re snuggled up on the sofa.
Should you already be a Bose multi-room speaker fan, you can connect these up to your soundbar. This allows you to either listen to music around the home in every room or adapt it into a home theatre system for surround sound if your room is on the larger side. If you connect up the Bose Bass Module 700 and Surround Speakers (sold separately), you can get even deeper bass.
Connectivity is a bit of a pain as you have to meticulously follow the instructions on the app – skipping a step or jumping ahead and guessing how its done will do you no favours. But once it is all set, the control is seamless and sound quality is exceptional. A little pricey, but relates to the superior jump in sound quality.
