    My wife wanted a Bose soundbar for Christmas so I researched them and went to BestBuy to listen and I was hooked. The sound is amazing, rich, and full. I use it both for tv and to play music from my iphone. It's also very easy to operate. It has no buttons like other Bose products and the remote control works for all our devices (TV, cable, DVD/BlueRay player) so it also serves as a universal remote which makes watching and listening so much easier..

    I bought the Solo 15 II about a week ago as a replacement for a few year old Samsung sound bar system. I am very happy I made the purchase as it is exactly what I was looking for in my living room. The Solo may not have the overall loudness as the Samsung (what good is overall loudness/bass when it drowns out dialogue and your constantly having to adjust volume level), but the Solo beats it in all other sound related categories... very clean and clear. Bluetooth has worked with all my devices and the remote has synced with everything. Firmware update was easy. Well done Bose. Looking forward to many years of usage.

    This is the best sounding speaker bar/stand I have ever heard. I tested out 6 different speaker bars before deciding on the getting this one. In the store, it sounded great but when I got it home, I was blown away! I love to watch movies and my biggest complaint with some of the built in tv speakers is that I can't hear what the people are saying. Bose hit a home run with this all-in-one stand. The dialog is crisp and the bass response is outstanding. There are no buttons on the front off the unit which works out great because I have kids at home that try to mess with it but can't. Everything is controlled via the remote. The remote also controls your other devices such as the tv, cable box, dvd player, etc. There is no need to have multiple remotes when the included remote can control it all. In the instruction manual you'll find the codes for each device to program the remote. This is a must have for those looking to get better sound from your favorite shows that the built in speakers just can't provide!

    Bose has done it again with their solo 15 sound bar!!! For the quality and depth of sound that this system produces, you'd think that It was surround sound! Great bass and great treble, plus the universal remote that it comes with can be used to control everything from my xbox one to my Apple TV. Also, the Bluetooth feature is great so you can pair your phone or other device to play music!

    I often have problems hearing subtle dialogue on tv. So when I started shopping for televisions, I looked at this. It had astounding sound quality, and looks nicer than a "sound bar." I don't need surround sound, and this is a simple unit that fits perfectly under the new 4k tv I bought. Just plug into the tv, turn the tv sound down and the Bose sound up. The sound is great and the remote is nice. You can even use the remote for all your devices, if you want. I would absolutely recommend this to a friend...great for movies, regular tv or whatever!

    Easy Hook up! Impressive sound quality. I love listening to music so I was hoping for a little bit more BASS, but I'm generally happy with the overall improvement of the sound quality out of this Bose Sound System as compared to the sound that came out of the built-in speakers in my 32" Flat Screen HD TV set. The Universal Remote is very handy too! I am very happy with this purchase!

    I bought this product because I thought it had the clearest, most natural sound for TV voices. I'm not a movie watcher. I'm not into heavy thumping base. I like the Cinemate 15 but chose this over it so that I didn't need deal with the subwoofer. I've used it for a few weeks now and I do not regret the choice whatsoever. I actually do have a use for the blue tooth feature and I factored that in my choice. My feeling was the extra money will be worth it in the long term since I wouldn't need to replace a standard sound bar later with what I really wanted all along.

    We bought this particular sound system due to the fact we had no space in front of the TV for a soundbar and also because we didn't want a whole surround sound system with wires running everywhere. My hsuband has bad hearing in one ear and I was tired of him blaring the TV speaker so he could hear it. We're fans of the sound you get from Bose products and thought we would give this a try. It has helped with being able to keep the volume down so I don't need to wear earplugs while watching TV, I'm assuming, due to the fact that the tones it emits are easier for him to hear. It does have great sound and gives much more base than some of the less expensive sound bars had and no loss of sound quality when turning it way up. It also worked well for our space situation where we didn't have room for the long bar. 5 Stars for sound, as long as you are in front of it. Due to the slightly curved front, I had hoped it would throw sound out to the sides a bit, but sadly, it does not. You get the best sound only if directly in front of it. If you're sitting off to the sides, it's definitely a more muted sound. If not for that issue, I would have given it 5 stars!

    We bought the Bose solo 15 series 2 for my dad for Christmas. We were worried because he is rather picky but he loves it! It is super easy to hook up & within minutes it's on. You have to turn your tv volume off to use the sound bar. It has Bluetooth so he can play his music from his phone. I noticed that I could hear the voices in the movie clearly while not having my ears blown out when the loud action parts start. I recommend.

    I was looking for a Bluetooth sound bar and wanted an all in one product to declutter my bedroom and since my television sits on my wife's dresser near the foot of the bed adding a couple of inches to our viewing height couldn't hurt. This Bose product sounds great. It has a dialogue setting that's great especially at night when you're wanting to hear clearly but not wake the baby down the hall. And fully opened up this box fills the room with great clear sound and zero noise. One wire connection is super clean. Paired with my iPhone music sounds great!

    After researching solutions to improve the sound quality for my recently purchased 55' 4k TV, I landed on the Bose Solo 15 series II. I needed a unit that would not over whelm my moderate size bedroom with multiple pieces of equipment and yet deliver deep, rich sound. There are many multi piece solutions in this price range but the single unit device fit my needs perfectly. The Solo provides deep lows great mid ranges, but the highs are a bit lacking in range. The separate voice channel compensates for this by delivering clear, legible voice through all kinds of background sounds. I was presently surprised by the units ability to provide a respectable level of directional sounds.... Also has Bluetooth!!! Great device,

    This I by far one of the best speakers I have owned. I cannot believe how much sound comes out of this this. I first owned the bose solo 15 I but then realized I could get the bose solo 15 II for same price so I returned the first one to target and bought this from best buy. Bluetooth works great. I like the idea that you can now adjust the bass from the controller instead on back of unit. This was well worth the money. I would recommend this product.

    My TV sound just wasn't cutting it. And I didn't want to spend a huge amount on home theatre. The Series II now has Bluetooth connectivity for playing music too. This is a great way to get room filling sound, for both TV and music. Remarkable.

    We patiently waited for Bose to develop a sound stand/bar system that also had Bluetooth capability, and it was well worth the wait! Not only is the sound quality similar to our old multi-speaker, ceiling mounted JBL surround-sound system, but we have the added feature of playing music from our phone, tablets and laptops. Super!

    This product lives up to its name. Crisp and clear sound with plenty of bass for a condo. I was impressed with the deep tones coming from a system without a sub. This should not be compared to a higher end sound bar with a sub or a surround sound system but it certainly holds its own. Bluetooth is a great addition. This blew away my old Insigna sound bar and sub and takes up less room. Fits under your TV. Great concept. Quick and easy to set up. Another great product from Bose.

    Bought this at the same time we got (also at Best Buy) a new TV, and never even tried the TV sound. This product rocks, as do all the many Bose products I've owned. Did not want a sound bar, and other sound plates I listened to just didn't cut it. For these old ears it brings dialogue out so I can get it the first time in spite of loud, incessant background music. This one is pricey, but get it if you can afford it. Best Buy will get you the best price!

    A Terrific Solution For Me

    I wanted a sound system for my new 4K TV and did not want to run speaker wires, nor did I want a wireless subwoofer due to wifi and wireless security camera interference issues. I also wanted quality sound. For me, the Bose Solo 15 was a terrific solution. From general TV sound to grandkids xbox games and for my movies, the sound is rich, spatial, clear and has great fidelity. Of course, this is not a 5.1 surround sound device, but for those of us who are tired of wires and wireless interference issues and are trending toward simplicity - I think this is something worth checking out. It is so simple to install, can be used as a stand-alone or as a TV base and has HDMI and Optical. The Bluetooth function is flawless (I use it for Pandora). Something to keep in mind, the product is designed with front and side sound delivery and I would not consider placing in a TV stand compartment that is closed on the sides. Of course, Best Buy never questions returns other than asking if anything is wrong with the product, so that makes it easy to try it at home and evaluate it for yourself. Not everyones answer, but it worked out quite well for me and I highly recommend at least considering this product!
