Everything in the purchase suits, a very necessary product.

I bought it as a replacement for the 5.1 system. More compact and no headache with wires. The wife is happy, the robot vacuum cleaner, in general, everything. The main bluetooth transmitter to buy is powerful enough. Otherwise, the sound will be lost. Different pros: 1. The sound is good, clear. 2. Wireless bluetooth connection. Convenient integration with native subwoofer and satellites (bought additionally). The application is installed on the phone, the sound level on all devices is…

I am very happy with this purchase, I will advise everyone!

So far very satisfied. I don't regret spending money. My recommendation is to take a device in the soundbar + bass module kit to increase the sound aesthetics, other additions such as rears are at the discretion of movie lovers, they do not play a role in music, I was convinced when testing in the studio, and in the cinema they did not really add a "wow effect" since for completeness, it is their participation in the "scene", you need the ideal geometry of the room, a sofa in the center, and so

Pros
  • Aesthetics. The sound, I don’t know what the “experts” write there, but for their money the device sounds great, both in music and in movies. I bought the 700th bass module, and finally it started playing with my own money. I listened to more than 15 similar systems from different manufacturers from 70 to 500, but this is not just a golden mean - this is what you need. Maybe a little emotional, but try it yourself and understand what I'm talking about. Thanks to the guys from spl. Ru for their help in choosing and recommendations (although they kept silent about the drawback, I hope not intentionally, but for the purpose of "selling" ;-P ).
Cons
  • in a couple of months of work, I found only a couple of shortcomings: 1. A VERY SIGNIFICANT DEFECT, which I was not told about in spl. Ru and what is not written about on the forums and in the reviews. If you have Internet from state-owned companies (Amazon, Rostelecom, MGTS and others), then the device out of the box will not work for you. Let me explain: Roskomnadzor, by blocking a number of 2022 resources through a ban on a range of IP addresses, made it impossible for the Bose ate service to work in 2022 (I believe not intentionally, but by nature .). Therefore, when I took the device out of the box, I was unpleasantly upset by the inability to start it (initialization through the application, it stupidly does not see it) without ating the column firmware, and since I have Online (Rostelecom), I could not ate via the Internet. An attempt to deceive the "system" was not successful - 2 mobiles, one source of the Internet and distributes it like a modem, the second one receives and on it the program for initialization did not work. It's the same with VPN. As a result, in order to launch, I had to go from the region to Hong Kong to spl. Ru, where they themselves ated the software (it took about 1 hour). BUT THE MOST IMPORTANT THING IS NOT WRITTEN OR TALKED ABOUT THIS IN STORES. BE CAREFUL! but you should not be afraid of this, especially if you decide to take it, the sound is worth the trouble ! 2. functional flaw - A. the speaker does not control (does not limit) the volume at startup (it can bang on the ears) B. this cannot be configured in the device, there are almost no settings stupidly C. to everyone who says that this is not a question for the speaker, but to the sound source, I can immediately say “this is not so”, a device for such money should have this kind of settings (the radio tape recorder of my car 9 and years ago can do this), since you can forget that the last time you listened loudly to music during the day and then turned on the TV at night make your neighbors happy :)

What did I pay for? The product is a complete failure.

It is very inconvenient to navigate by the lights on the soundbar what is happening with the soundbar at the moment, a buggy application on the smartphone, only one hdmi input - everything had to be connected to the TV - because of this, all wires from ps 4 and apple tv are visible, and if there were inputs to the soundbar itself - the wires would be hidden behind the soundbar. I liked the sound for the movie, but the glitches with self-shutdown tortured me. Against the background of…

Pros
  • appearance, I took it because of the white color - I did not find analogues
Cons
  • unreliable - started spontaneously turning off after a month of operation, no on-screen menu

Excellent product, the best quality.

We needed a stylish interior and high-quality soundbar. I looked at many options, but everywhere there were some flaws and flaws. In terms of design, the 700 soundbar attracted me right away, after consulting I liked the possibilities in the form of frequency settings and the ability to assemble a completely wireless 5.1 system. Took so far only complete with a subwoofer. At the expense of the rear, you need to think more.

Pros
  • Stylish design, excellent detail, convenient application
Cons
  • Basque is not enough, so I immediately took it with a subwoofer.

Nothing unusual, a normal product.

I’ve been using the previous bose soundtouch 300 model for about a year, I decided to buy a soundbar 700 in another room, the models are absolutely identical in sound and design, but in the soundbar 700, unlike the soundtouch 300, the hdmi input was removed, I didn’t pay attention to it when I bought it, I couldn’t suspect that in the new model costing 20,000 more, the hdmi input was removed, as a result, the idea of ​​\u200b\u200bconnecting apple tv through the soundbar failed. in general, I…

Pros
  • sound, design
Cons
  • no hdmi input

A really necessary purchase, Im glad I found this product.

To be honest, the sound is just super! But I know it can be even better!) To complete the experience, you need to buy additional modules. It's like a drug.) I'm hooked) If you want great bass, then you need to buy a Bose bass module. Without it, you don't "feel" the bass. With him, goosebumps from the bass. If you want more volume, then you need to buy a Bose surround speaker. Before buying, I went shopping and listened to top-end soundbars from Sony, LG and Samsung. I'm talking about models:

Pros
  • Design, Sound quality, Minimalism, Ease of use, Smartphone app, Remote control, Room sound adjustment.
Cons
  • No

Dissatisfied with this product, bad to use.

I ordered a design project in a large construction company, the designer prescribed a samsung TV and a bose soundtouch 300 soundbar + a subwoofer for it, also a 300th series, in one of the rooms, when they went to the final finish and had to buy a soundbar - it turned out that it was discontinued and its can no longer be found, they offered a replacement for a bose soundbar 700 model and a subwoofer for it bas module 700 + a bracket for another 4,000 - in the estimate the whole set came out at…

Pros
  • The glass on the subwoofer and the bar looks very nice, there is no volume in the sound, but the sound itself is good (when the subwoofer works), a rich set of wires for connecting to a TV - but in fact the shortcomings blocked all the advantages
Cons
  • The subwoofer constantly loses connection with the main panel, poor control, it is not clear whether the soundbar accepted the command or not, the application is buggy on the smartphone

In my opinion, and I’ll say right away that I’m very picky about the sound, this is perhaps the best soundbar on the market! Excellent sound quality at all frequencies, with the right settings, it produces a very clear and correct balanced sound, there is no frequency porridge even in complex sound scenes. If we talk about the sound quality of music, then here it is a solid 4, if you compare the cost to the sound, you can probably get better by buying floor-standing speakers and an amplifier…

Pros
  • Sound quality Build quality Package Ease of use aesthetic beauty
Cons
  • Well, of course, the price is the main disadvantage. In my case, the downside of black is dustiness. Well, the lack of a conventional 3.5 jack connector. I don't even know what to write anymore. There may be no equalizer to fine-tune the sound.

I'm very happy with the product, it's very satisfying.

Finally bought this miracle with a bass module and surround 700! Guys who else thinks, we take it without regret, you will forget that you spent a decent amount on this, take my word for it! Starting with the packaging, it comes to understanding that you have purchased a quality item without a doubt, and when you set it up for your room with the help of an adaptive device, you will fly into space! The panorama is so wide, you don’t understand that the sound comes from the soundbar, the effect…

Pros
  • Just a gun!
Cons
  • There are none and there won't be.

The quality is at the highest level, be sure to try it.

SOUND EXPERIENCE Since I work as a live sound engineer at concerts, I'm used to huge subwoofers and good sound. Therefore, I decided to take it immediately with a 700 subwoofer. At a low volume, the subwoofer is not particularly felt, sometimes it does not hammer as we would like (and I also thought about taking the 500th bass module, there would be little of it at all) I read on the forums that in the states interesting people buy another 700th subwoofer for their own, so that the whole room…

Pros
  • SOUND. In music, he is HARMONIOUS. Do not hammer bass, do not irritate the top. The sound is wide, after it the speakers of my QLED Q7FN turned out to be a rattle, and when I bought QLED, I thought that the TV sound was decent))) In general, in terms of sound: If you are a fan of QUALITY and balanced sound, then this is for you. It's just that for some the bass will seem a little, (even paired with the 700th bass module) The basses themselves are gentle, musical, not just a fart of the air. There is music, tenderness. straight uhhhh) Well, the sound itself is just space, schidos, from all that I have heard, this is the most harmonious. Even Morgenstern is pleasant to listen to on them. In general: Harmony, Balance, Detail, Purity. DESIGN. Minimalistic, premium materials, top-level assembly. The size and design of the subwoofer is on a different level compared to sony and samsung, but I'm afraid for the glass surface (a child in the house, everything can be expected)
Cons
  • SOUND without Subwoofer 700. At first, before connecting the subwoofer, I listened without it, this sound is not worth the money without a subwoofer) If I just bought a 700 soundbar without a subwoofer and listened to it, I would return it to the store and buy something from Samsung with a subwoofer. Any speaker with a subwoofer is just a reinforced concrete combination. It's not for nothing that all Samsung, JBL and Sony sell their soundbars complete with a subwoofer. Don't even think about buying a Bose 700 without a Subwoofer. It's like a sandwich without meat. The whole buzz of any sound is in the bass. APPENDIX On iOS, it's just awful. I have never seen anything like this before, how could you make such a buggy and unfinished app for iOS? FIRST CONNECTION. (setting) In the HOUR store, they just tried to connect to the application and set it up for a demonstration, I had to connect simply via bluetooth. And at home I spent another 2 hours to simply connect to the application on iOS. Even more) I had to do a complete reset of the soundbar and even reset its connection with the remote control (I barely found the info on how to do this, more info in English only) CONNECTING A SUBWOOFER. And with the connection of a subwoofer, dancing with a tambourine in general. As a result, after a day of endured torment, I found a description of the problem on foreign forums. The problem is stupid in the iOS application. Developers shack. I downloaded the application on Android and everything flew on the first try. On iOS, you can't even rename it. This problem has not been resolved on the forums since the beginning of 2022) HDMI eARC Paired with Samsung remote from BOSE does not control TV. And the remote from the Samsung stopped turning on and off its own TV. I have to turn on the soundbar itself with the BOSE remote control, after that the TV turns on by itself, then I control the samsung remote control for all TV (the volume is synchronized with the TV).

Amazing sound but bluetooth connection is faulty!

I've been using the soundbar for 2 weeks now. I enjoy the premium sound quality from Bose. But the Bluetooth connection is faulty! My main requirement is to play YouTube music from my iPhone and stream it to the soundbar. This is only possible via a Bluetooth connection! But sometimes the connection is faulty! This happens 2 times out of 5 even though I'm working within 8ft of the soundbar! It starts with audio breaks and eventually the audio disappears completely! I have to completely…

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Only available in black

Very impressed with the surround sound experience, even with just the soundbar. And setting up the soundbar in the app along with the Alexa integration was pretty easy. If this is going to be your only Alexa device, this is a winner. The rubber remote control is a bit strange but really smart design. And the soundbar itself looks great. However, if you already own multiple smart speakers, avoid this product until their programming is fixed. One of my soundbars registers as 3 separate devices in

Pros
  • quality construction
Cons
  • boring packaging

Great sound, difficult setup

Soundbar, bass module and surround speakers ordered. This is an update of the old simplified Bose sound system. The sound of the 700 and its components is simply fantastic, there is nothing to complain about. I was also able to program the universal remote for my devices fairly easily. What keeps me from giving a five star review is the attitude. The app is buggy, I had to restart it several times (I'm running it on a Samsung Note 8) and the number of recommendations the app gives isn't great…

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled

Great Sounding Soundbar

This soundbar is a huge upgrade over the Solo 5. I've only turned the volume up to 50 percent so far because it gets really loud. I enabled the Bose skill in the Alexa app and now I can play any song from Revain Music just by saying the song title and artist. It also controls my light shades. It has decent bass for a soundbar, but I'll probably buy a wireless subwoofer after I recover from spending $800 on it. The only problem so far has been the remote control. It didn't connect to the…

Good speaker/difficult to set up

I want to start by saying that I'm happy with my purchase, but I want to rate this product to help someone else. a little excited. If you're not a techie, I understand why someone would give a bad review. You can't just plug it in and it's ready to go. So if you want a simple plugin setup, this isn't it. It forces you to install this music app on your phone/tablet and go through the setup process (music, remote, Alexa, calibration, etc.) through the app. Not entirely sure if you can set it up…

Pros
  • Impressive
Cons
  • Crumpled packaging

Not ready for prime time

November 8th update: ------------------------------ - - -------------- ----If you're expecting a product that's easy for Apple, it's not. The included manual is practically useless (the best one is on the Bose website). The remote control is unintuitive at best (buttons light up in seemingly random combinations). The app barely works (claims that my remote has learned to work with my Playstation and TV, but nothing works). Last night after 2 hours I was able to figure out how to reset it (but…

crap technique. Don't buy this!

No instructions in the box. You need to download their application on your mobile phone. The app only works over Wi-Fi, not Bluetooth, and you won't be able to continue in the app until 700 is detected on your WiFi. The Bose 700 is very difficult to set up. This was not detected on our network with their app. I ended up having to plug an ethernet cable into our router which is on a different floor in our house and disconnect all the nodes in our mesh system just to connect it to wifi and…

Must play with the settings! cinema sound! TERRIFIC!

So let's go: The Bose Soundbar 700 with the 700 base unit has been around for about a week now. I wanted to wait to give an honest review. I've never had a soundbar, but my TV was hooked up to a Bose Wave radio. It sounded great but the radio started acting weird so I spent a couple of weeks looking for soundbars and settled on these. I wanted to get 300 but waited for 700 with Alexa! I love Alex! I paid a soundbar for $1498! It's a lot of money for me, but I love the quality. The 700 doesn't…
