Reviews around sound (5.00 of 5)

  • The Wireless Link interfaced with the stereo system and TV without issues and provided great sound and operation.
  • Now to the most important aspect of the Bose, the sound
  • This provided an affordable and simple way to take advantage of an older Bose Lifestyle system and keep the great sound.
  • My PC can seamlessly stream 320 kbps to my older pre-wifi Lifestyle system which still has incredible sound.
  • That said, the sound is great and the Bluetooth range is spectacular.

Reviews around soundtouch (5.00 of 5)

  • This SoundTouch Wireless Link Adapter is actually another great Bose addition to ANY existing non-wirless set up including previous Bose products that didn't offer SoundTouch like my Bose CineMate 120 soundbar, which they dropped and revised to the Bose SoundTouch 120 soundbar
  • I streamed a variety of music from Amazon Music and Pandora and was increadibly impressed with how rich the SoundTouch's DAC is and how much presence the music has
  • Thankfully Bose listened to its customers and created this product to add the awesome soundtouch capability to any speakers
  • You can select the appropriate input remotely using the free SoundTouch app
  • The integration with the App is great and working within the App to control the Link Adapter as well as a SoundTouch Portable.

Reviews around way (4.40 of 5)

  • But this is only available as another way to feed music data in, not out
  • At $150, I figured this was the cheapest way to get into the field
  • But, if you want to connect this to multiple SoundTouch speaker, this becomes a pretty cool way to go
  • But, I enjoy this for what it is....a convenient way to play music from my phone through a speaker.

Reviews around adapter (4.34 of 5)

  • I have not found this issue with the ST Adapter.
  • My soundbar, for example, was completely missing from the Bose app, with no instructions for setting up the wifi.- At $149, the link adapter is 50% more expensive than Apple's Airtunes (Airport Express) and 400%+ more expensive than Google Chromsecast (
  • As I said, now that the Bose “puck” is networked to BOTH my wifi as well as via Bluetooth, I can choose either one, however wifi is hands down better.

  • I'm not saying some Bose adapters don't have problems.

Reviews around thing (4.33 of 5)

  • This thing works well enough but some other things let it down, notably the TERRIBLE Bose mobile app which won't let you sort by ANYTHING and will only display 20 albums by an artist, so you can forget browsing, say, Van Morrison or Bob Dylan's full catalogue
  • if it doesn’t work I
  • The amazing thing happened next when I installed the app on a tablet (after setting up with the phone), and the tablet picked up the presets, newly named speaker, and the Amazon/Pandora I'd set up.

  • I had an intercom system in my house that would do the same thing back in the old days of hard-wired devices and really enjoyed being able to go throughout the house listening to the same music wherever I was.

  • I can't get mine to work for more that about 15' and the sound quality is good not great which is what I expected from Bose
  • I can't get mine to work for more that about 15' and the sound quality is good not great which is what I expected from Bose

Reviews around product (4.05 of 5)

  • Fortunately, Bose as mentioned, has excellent product 1-800 phone support
  • Bose is always very good product, but this one really doesn't work as I expected.
  • I like the product, but the instructions included were TERRIBLE.
  • Bose is always very good product, but this one really doesn't work as I expected.
  • Not the best product, does have a lot of potential in the future if they were to work out the quirks.

Reviews around bluetooth (4.03 of 5)

  • I have to disconnect the power in order for the bluetooth scan function to work
  • In addition, the Bluetooth on the SoundTouch is powerful
  • The bad about this item is the price for the added functionality you get, some of which can be replicated for less:--I have TuneIn Pro on my phone that also lets me stream internet radio from anywhere in the world, and it does pretty much the same as this Bose device.--Being able to connect a non-Bluetooth audio system to a Bluetooth transmitting device is great, but an inexpensive Bluetooth receiver like this [...] can add that capability for a lot less.
  • I've tried a couple other things like a receiver with a crappy app and a bluetooth
  • Much better off to use inexpensive Bluetooth adapter and an Echo Dot to connect via WiFi

Reviews around speaker (4.03 of 5)

  • Tremendous cost savings possible if you have expensive speakers that don't have a wireless function
  • There's even a way to advance or delay individual speakers if they're not syncing well in 10ms
  • IMHO Bose has always made some of the best sounding speakers available
  • As I said, now that the Bose “puck” is networked to BOTH my wifi as well as via Bluetooth, I can choose either one, however wifi is hands down better.
  • Have the Bose hooked up via the optical input which makes the sound coming from the speakers awesome, clean, and clear

Reviews around device (3.98 of 5)

  • The positives:This device is great for streaming Spotify or Bluetooth audio throughout the entire house
  • If you just want to have the audio alone this device works great.
  • I can stream to either Bose SoundTouch device no problem and to both of them at the same time sometimes, then suddenly one drops and nothing short of rebooting every device multiple times can bring it back.
  • if it doesn’t work I
  • The device works very well, both with bluetooth and wifi.

Reviews around wire (1.38 of 5)

  • After much (1 hour), pressing the reset buttons, the Bluetooth button on top of the “puck” and back and forth with my android phone’s Bluetooth hookup, I finally got the system to play music from my phone (Pandora) via Bluetooth through my hard-wired home system.
  • I have a hard-wired home system; I don’t have any of their “speaker choices” they illustrated.
  • I had an intercom system in my house that would do the same thing back in the old days of hard-wired devices and really enjoyed being able to go throughout the house listening to the same music wherever I was.
  • Sound quality through any wireless device is not going to be as good as a direct wire system.
  • The system I wanted to use it with is a hard-wired (speakers), multi-room home stereo sound system
