Bose is back in your living room, and Sonos should be worried

Went to buy two of these and found they won't work with my Soundbar 900. Not buying a new, slightly updated Soundbar for $1,100 on top of it so no sale for BOSE. As a guy who owns a lot of BOSE items, I'm really getting annoyed that nothing works together.

I Pulled the trigger! Who else is getting one?

Nope, I am done with Bose. Bought a Soundbar 900 plus a Sub 700 a while ago and was waiting for more up to date satellites than the garbage 700. Now everything is not backward compatible anymore. I am looking for another brand to replace the mentioned stuff.

I would’ve ordered a pair of these this morning if they were compatible with my soundbar 900. I hope Bose gets roasted for this.

How many of you with ultra smart soundbar will upgrade to lifestyle ultra?

I have the soundbar 900 w bass module 700 and won’t be moving to the lifestyle. I’m not interested in spending money to get stuck with another system that can’t be upgraded or expanded when Bose changes course again in three years. The lifestyle bass module is the 700 with updated radio receivers fo

Its official now.

Nope and the new surrounds and sub aren't wirelessly compatible with the 700, 900 or Ultra soundbar. I bought a soundbar 900 and bass module 700 with hopes that I could add atmos capable surrounds, but it ain't going to happen. I'll keep my current setup and will look elsewhere when it's time for so

Bose Ultra Soundbar is WILD ‼️

It's annoying, but I just switch my Blu Ray player to LPCM output and can use my Bose soundbar 900 with DTS discs.

Bose surround 700 speakers worth $599 ? Honest reviews

I tried and returned them. They sound thin/anemic, even if you can get the volume up to a desirable level. No upward firing drivers, so sound at the rear of the room is linear compared to the high and wide sound produced by my soundbar 900. Also, they come with a mess of wiring and external power br

Poor sound quality with soundbar + bass module + surround when streaming.

I had a lifestyle 48 years ago and it sounded big and full. I now have a soundbar 900 w bass module 700 and it sounds great too. I primarily use via streaming and the difference in sound quality varies wildly depending on what I’m watching. When I use my blue ray player, the sound quality is much be

After years of using Bose products, here’s my honest take

I have the Bose QCII in-ear buds the connectivity is so bad and frustrating, I switched to AirPods Pro 2 no going back. Not to mention Bose’s latest earbuds do not offer this kind of automatic voice-detection feature. Unlike AirPods Pro 2, which automatically lower volume and enhance voices when you

My 1 year experience with the Bose Soundbar 900 and why I would not buy it again

I have the Bose 900 and 75 cm Samsung frame. Keeping both connected is a nightmare. Now, no matter what I do with resetting etc etc it will not find HDMI CEC, Blue tooth has too much lag so switched to Optical cable.
