Best audio
The Soundbar 700 is Bose's premium option (with a price to match), stocked with proprietary drivers that deliver unreal sound. It can adapt itself to deliver the best audio possible for the specific room it's in, it works with Amazon Alexa, AirPlay 2, HDMI-ARC, and it simply looks stunning in either white or black finishes.
Mid-range audio
The Soundbar 500 has a matte black finish with a wrap-around grill for a slightly different look, but it still pumps out great audio while being slightly smaller than the Soundbar 700. It still supports HDMI-ARC connectivity, AirPlay 2, and it works with Amazon Alexa for easy voice control of your music.
Budget option
As far as Bose soundbars go, this one is about as cheap as possible. Despite the price, the Solo 5 pumps out a full sound and has AUX, optical, and coaxial hookups to make setup simple. Whether it's sitting below your TV or mounted on a wall, this compact option will turn your entertainment setup into something special.
The latest
The latest budget soundbar from Bose, The Bose TV Speaker, keeps it simple with Bluetooth 4.2 wireless connectivity and a single HDMI-ARC input. This soundbar is also incredibly compact, sporting a profile that is a little over two-inches tall and 23-inches wide, but it still packs a punch with two angled drivers and one center tweeter.
Complete package
For the complete home theater experience, the Bose Lifestyle 650 Home Entertainment System combines some of the best that Bose has to offer into one convenient package. Included with this system are four OmniJewel surround speakers, one OmniJewel center speaker, the Acoustimass wireless bass module, and one control Console which supports AirPlay 2 and HDMI-ARC.
Add deep bass
If you find that the bass coming from your soundbar isn't quite as deep and booming as you'd like, you can add the Bose Bass Module 700. It's designed to match the sleek black look of the soundbar, and it's as easy to set up as possible. Just plug it in and feel the rumble. This additional hardware is compatible with the Bose Soundbar 700, 500, and TV Speaker.
