Reviews around feature (4.45 of 5)

  • Our favorite feature is being able to select for if you listening to dialogue versus listening to music, which makes each sound experience much more enjoyable.
  • n’t rival any true surround sound systems, but it's really in the same market either
  • This model has a great dialogue feature that really improves voice clarity.
  • At this price point I was going to give this 5 stars because I like the voice clarity feature so much, but it's really hard not to judge the lack of bass in the speakers and include that in the review
  • The clear voice feature is largely the reason I picked this device, and it works very well.

  • I thought Bose had a much better product than this:( WHAT A JOKE!!
  • This product is well below the Bose standard and very disappointing

  • My TV isn't all that old but the speakers have began to not work that
  • Nothing spectacular IMO but way better than the skimpy speakers on out TV.

Reviews around bass (3.34 of 5)

  • The bass is particularly impressive since the system lacks a discrete subwoofer.
  • The normal setting is fine for movies, but when I want to hear dialog, all that bass is annoying, and I just want to have to set it once.
  • The bass is far better than expected- had to turn it down a notch.
  • Like some have posted the bass is not that great, but so much better than the t.v. that I can't complain.
  • Bass really is lacking and the fact that this is a soundbar is no excuse.

Reviews around background noise (1.76 of 5)

  • does not do what I expected, make voice in pictures more distinguishable relative to background noise
  • They use hearing aid technology to emphasize voices and reduce background noise.
  • The sound on this is very realistic and in dialog mode, we can now hear the conversations over the background noise.
  • Added bonus is the dialogue button, which bumps up the dialogue and bumps down the background noise making movies more enjoyable in a house with sleeping babies
  • And dialog is as clear as with the Zvox.

  • I am having a very hard time writing this review because the Bose sound bar is perfect for what it is, but I'm not sure that a sound bar is what I wanted to buy
  • OK, OK, my wife hates it, finally alone time with our TV.
  • You can always just press the dialogue button a second time to toggle back to the regular sound settings if you prefer.
  • Great for using in apartment, had a hard time hearing the TV since the speakers faced the back of set which required turning up volume to hear dialog.
  • I had a hard time understanding the words through the TV speakers
