    Bose Solo 5 TV Sound System

    • A lot better than tv speakers - easy set up - my father really enjoys watching movies and this has added a lot to his enjoyment and it’s simple to use and set up
    • Nice speaker
    • Only had this speaker for a little over a year and it no longer works
    • I do have better speakers for my TVs, but Solo 5 does provide balanced sounds with an option to adjust the bass which sounds great in my office
    • Like the Solo 5, the Edifier speakers can be fed with an optical digital audio cable (included) - the only audio output jack on our Samsung TV.
    • I think the speakers from a local store would have been better
    • The speakers sounded crisp but there is no bass.
    • Great speaker
    • This speaker is FABULOUS, is low enough to be in front of the TV without being in the way, and I can bluetooth my phone music when I want as well
    • I LOVE this speaker
    • and I really don't like having speakers everywhere
    • This speaker is fantastic for a minimalistic setup for your living room entertainment system
    • My TV isn't all that old but the speakers have began to not work that
    • For such an expensive speaker and the 'Bose' name brand I was expecting many years out of a dependable product
    • If the TV has only been off a short time, then the speaker won't revert to normal mode
    • Decent speaker, wish i could add a bass module
    • I stacked the speakers on top of each other and played the same songs to compare and the Samsung K450 blew away the Bose Solo 5, got completely boat raced, wasn't even a competition
    • This speaker is fantastic for hearing commentators over fan noise during football games.
    • This is an awesome speaker.
    • this model only has two speakers nothing fancy too expensive for what you get.
    • Great speaker for the money
    • As with most newer tv's, the speakers on the tv are terrible
    • Set-up was easy and it is a good speaker for our bedroom TV.
    • We had purchased a cheaper speaker for our TV that was listed as a bestseller
    • We returned it and decided to spend a little bit more to get a good quality speaker
    • It was basially like adding a 3rd speaker to the TV
    • This was a rather disappointing speaker.
    • I was going for a sleek speaker that would make my entire entertainment system look as streamline as possible
    • Hands down the best speaker system I've ever owned
    • I have tested many speakers against the Soundlink Mini and all of them pale in comparison.
    • Nothing spectacular IMO but way better than the skimpy speakers on out TV.
    • I have Bose headphones, two portable speakers, Bose in my car
    • any of the smaller portable speakers just as good
    • Like a lot of other reviews, I feel this speaker would be nicer if it would remember the last setting used or allow the user to set dialogue as the default when it's powered up.
    • No one can beat Bose..this is the best speakers i have
    • (there is a usb port on the back of the speaker and the tech said that the speaker could get a firmware update in that manner if they choose to create one)Overall the speaker has very good mid range sound and decent bass as well, but you should be aware that for the enhanced dialog voice mode you will need to have the speaker remote handy to activate it each time or else you will get the standard sound
    • Awesome speaker
    • It's a terrific speaker which I highly recommend!
    • I have a 50 Vizio M series the on which the speakers are horrible
    • Moved the sound source from the back of the tv to the front, much better speakers than those in the tv.
    • Awesome compact speaker.
    • but I found my old Vizio speaker to be more user friendly.
    • The sound was OK - better than the failing speaker on my TV Less than 60 days later the soudbar failed
    • Excellent speaker, just as I expected being a Bose product.
    • I already have the Soundlink Mini and it is an excellent portable speaker (see my popular review.)
    • This speaker is great
    • Great speaker
    • However, its a great speaker, especially when used as a sound system for a computer
    • I have always preferred Bose speakers.
    • I also did NOT want a bunch of messy cables and speakers all over the room
    • Maybe my mistake is buying $250 speakers for a $188 tv?Bose products are great quality, we also have a Wave radio/cd player and a Color Bluetooth
    • If you outgrow this as a TV speaker, it's a fine Bluetooth speaker for an office or study.
    • I have a Samsung 3D 4K television that I recently purchased, but like most all televisions, the speakers are on the back and the sound quality is not as sharp as it should be for a television in this price range.
    • Currently stationed in korea, this little speaker packs a punch and will also be very easy to ship
    • It's just a great sounding speaker, nothing extra (other than bluetooth) or fancy, exactly what I wanted it to be.
    • but it is very clear sound and enhances the weak speakers that come with the TV
    • compact speaker,exellent all around television sound,good bass!
    • This is an attractive, unobtrusive bar speaker with a great sound
    • First, I have a good quality older flat panel TV (with actually pretty good speakers) so wasn’t looking to upgrade to a whole 5 speaker system, but I thought getting some deeper bass while watching movies would be nice
    • Sounds like my son's $30 portable phone speakers
    • This is an expensive speaker system for what you get
    • it seems like ordinary poor speakers in a box with none of the Bose Magic I had been familiar with
    • Very nice speaker
    • Now, I also own the Bose Soundlink mini speaker which I think is the gold standard for portable blue tooth speakers.
    • For its price, there are many good speakers if you can spare little space which many can do if they get over brand bias.
    • It's a powerful speaker for sure.
    • (Bose in the car, recently bought the Bose sound link mini, Bang and Olufsen portable speakers, and most recently Klipsch), I the sound was very lackluster.
    • If you intend to drastically increase the sound quality of your crappy TV speaker (TV speaker quality does vary, but usually even the best sounding are lacking), then I'd consider it.
    • but it is very clear sound and enhances the weak speakers that come with the TV
    • I received a bunk speaker I have requested a replacement, and will edit this post if that speaker is worthy
    • Extremely dissapointed at this price point even more so since i have enjoyed other speakers from Bose in the past.
    • This is one great TV speaker.
    • And dialog is as clear as with the Zvox.
    • I have a Samsung 3D 4K television that I recently purchased, but like most all televisions, the speakers are on the back and the sound quality is not as sharp as it should be for a television in this price range.
