Do I need a subwoofer or rear speakers?

No, but most owners add Bose's bass module for movies because the bar's bass is modest. Rear surround speakers add real rear channels that the bar only simulates.

Does it have HDMI passthrough?

No. It has one HDMI eARC connection and an optical input, so other devices should plug into the TV.

The soundbar, an HDMI cable, an optical cable, a remote and power cord. Setup is done through the Bose Music app.

Does it work with Google Assistant and AirPlay 2?

Yes. Alexa is built in, Google Assistant is supported, and AirPlay 2 works for Apple devices.

Is the Bose Smart Soundbar worth it?

It is a strong one-bar Atmos option with wide streaming support and easy setup. Its value depends on whether you want Alexa and AirPlay 2 in one bar or would rather have HDMI inputs and a subwoofer in the box.

How does it compare with the Sonos Beam?

Both are compact one-bar Atmos options. The Bose adds Alexa built in, Voice4Video and AirPlay 2, while the Beam offers HDMI eARC with more input flexibility and a well-regarded app.

About it

The Bose Smart Wireless Atmos Soundbar transforms your home entertainment experience with shockingly immersive surround sound. Powered by Dolby Atmos and Bose's proprietary TrueSpace technology, this compact yet mighty soundbar fills your space with multi-dimensional audio that pulls you into the on-screen action. Whether you're streaming the latest thriller, enjoying a concert or gaming with friends, the Smart Wireless Atmos Soundbar delivers crisp, balanced sound with rich bass for a truly captivating experience.

Ultra-Crisp Dialog for Clear Understanding

Tired of straining to understand muffled dialog or having loud action sequences drown out conversations? The Bose Smart Wireless Atmos Soundbar features A.I. Dialog Mode to enhance vocal clarity without compromising the surround effect. This intelligent processing isolates human speech and balances it with ambient noise and effects for ultra-crisp, easily intelligible dialog. You'll never miss another word of your favorite shows and movies.

TrueSpace Technology for Endless Immersion

While Dolby Atmos excels at elevating select content, most streaming media isn't encoded for object-based surround sound. Bose's TrueSpace technology solves this by analyzing incoming stereo or 5.1 signals and upmixing them to create an immersive multi-channel experience with sound placed all around you. Instruments, dialog and effects are positioned precisely in a virtual soundfield for immersion without limits. TrueSpace works with any content to bring you into the heart of the performance.

Complete Control at Your Command

Whether by voice, remote or app, you're in full control of your listening experience. Amazon Alexa is built-in for voice commands to power on, adjust volume, skip tracks and more. Bose's Voice4Video feature expands voice control to your TV, cable box and streaming devices. Use the included remote or free Bose Music app to quickly choose between music services, internet radio stations and Bluetooth sources. However you prefer to command your content, the Bose Smart Wireless Atmos Soundbar puts you in the driver's seat.

About the Bose Smart Soundbar

The Bose Smart Soundbar is a 27.3-inch Dolby Atmos soundbar with upward-firing drivers and Bose TrueSpace processing that spreads dialogue, effects and music around and overhead. It streams over Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect and Chromecast, and has Alexa built in plus Google Assistant support. It suits small to mid-size rooms where a single bar has to cover movies, TV and music. Against rivals like the Sonos Beam it trades HDMI inputs for wider voice and streaming support, and owners say bass and true surround need add-ons.
