    Great value
    Love it! When I purchased the Bose Solo 5 soundbar, I didn't realize it was refurbished. It was easy to install, sound is great, the remote is a little scratched since it was previously used and the enclosed document stated so. My Samsung 25" TV speakers are so terrible! I can now enjoy listening to the kitchen TV. I love all my Bose products.

    5.0 out of 5 stars I was skeptical, but it does improve the clarity of dialogue
    Reviewed in the United States on March 1, 2016
    I have been having more difficulty understanding the dialogue in TV shows and movies lately... I am getting older and yes, I did listen to loud music in the 70's. I have tried a couple of different solutions like a bluetooth transmitter & headphones, which worked ok but I don't like to have the headphones on for long and it has to be kind of loud for me, and with a different sound bar which really didn't help much over the TV's own speakers. So I ordered this Bose Solo 5 system since it mentioned improving the clarity of dialogue. Well I have to say that it does. It first turns on in a "standard" mode and sounds pretty "regular" in that mode; really no big difference between it and my prior sound bar. But once you press the "dialogue" button on the remote, you can definitely hear a difference in clarity. I was pretty skeptical, but it really does help me understand much better what people are saying. It is an obvious improvement. I am adding a photo of the button on the remote you need to push to enable the dialogue mode since it wasn't obvious to me. When the dialogue mode is on, the green status light on the sound bar changes in color to amber, but you will be able to hear the difference, or at least I could. I should mention that some of the bass seems to be reduced when in dialogue mode but it also seems to me the voice frequencies are enhanced and not just pumping up the treble. I gladly give up some of the bass for the clarity. You can always just press the dialogue button a second time to toggle back to the regular sound settings if you prefer. Truthfully, I thought I would send this system back if it did not make a big difference since it is a bit pricey, and I am definitely not sending this back.

    You know how some people get stuff free to review? Well, I wish I got this for free, but didn't. I paid the full price. Just thought you might want to know.

    4.0 out of 5 stars A Great BASIC Soundbar
    Reviewed in the United States on February 5, 2023
    I purchased this with the intention of giving my gaming experience a little more depth. I just purchased an Insignia Fire TV and liked the sound but felt it lacked a lot of bottom/bass.

    This sound bar makes up for that a bit.

    Let's talk about INSTALLATION first:

    Despite it taking me the better part of an hour to get the sound working correctly this is an easy set-up. The box comes with an optical connection so first check to see if your device has an optical input as well. If not purchase an HDMI as well.

    The Sound Bar comes with ONE HDMI port so it will need to be the primary connection if you use HDMI.

    The optical connections are easy but be sure that you hear the *CLICK* when connecting them or it means its not connected correctly, no matter how snug the wire feels.

    Be aware of your TV's current sound settings too. I had to turn OFF my TV's speakers before I could get sound to come from the sound bar so before purchasing or arrival be aware of what that may be.

    The physical aspects of it are great. It's medium sized. Tall enough to cover he space between my TV and its stand but it doesn't cover the screen at all and wide enough so that the sound doesn't feel like its on one side but not taking up a ton of space.

    SOUND QUALITY:

    It's good! Not going to give you a home theater experience and that probably shouldn't be expected for this price. This will make your sound feel more robust and deep but not immersive. The sound is akin to if my TV had come with really good speakers.

    It does get LOUD though (check out the video for the increasing volume). So great for if you're watching a music video or concert or streaming from the TV.

    Bluetooth connection was pretty easy to set up and I had no hiccups. This will probably become my preferred way of listening to music around the house or in this room. It's great for a music speaker.

    REMOTE

    the remote is is a universal Remote and it comes with the codes for a ton of Television types. It's a very easy setup my only complaint is that the remote is MASSIVE. As you can see it dwarfs my TV's normal remote in both width and length.

    All in all I like this sound bar especially for the price point. One may find themselves upgrading though if/when a more expensive model goes on sale or feels like a better purchase.

    If you want some good sound from your TV but don't need cinema style audio I'd say go for this. If you're looking to upgrade your experience to something that is very fancy and elaborate probably take the next price level up!
