![]() ![]() As we mentioned above Bose decided to unify their designs so the Bose TV Speaker has very rounded corners and straight lines and really feels like a 2020 product. The main material being used is obviously plastic but in contrast to some other cheap offerings the one used here feels more solid and sturdy giving you a sense of better overall quality when you hold it in your hand. Keep in mind that there are no up-firing or side-firing drivers here so it’s easy to even place it inside a cabinet or more confined spaces for that matter giving you extreme flexibility. Measuring just 23.4″ x 2.2″ x 4″ (593 mm x 56.1 mm x 102.1 mm) and with a weight of only 6.61 lbs (1.95 kg) this soundbar is so compact that it can fit anywhere you want and under any TV size you may have. The soundbar may not be the smallest we have tested to this day, as this goes to the Sony HT-MT300 that we reviewed recently, but still is one of the smallest designs we had the chance of reviewing. You will not find the premium tempered glass here that is used on their top Soundbar 700 but it still gives you a sense of quality that we don’t usually see in such a small unit. It has the same lines, the same design pattern and the same materials used. The unit seems to be following very closely the design of the Soundbar 500 but on a smaller scale. In the end is the soundbar worth it or its extremely small size is having a detrimental effect on its performance? Let’s find out…īose is always known for the premium quality materials they use on their products and the Bose TV Speaker could be no exception. The Bose TV Speaker is basically a 2.0 channels design, comes with very basic features like Bluetooth streaming and optional connection to a wired subwoofer and promises to offer some decent upgrade to your TVs audio. This is not the first time we see such a compact offering as very recently we reviewed a similarly compact soundbar from Sony, the Sony HT-MT300 so it seems that many manufacturers nowadays are designing units with size being the first and most important aspect. The Bose TV speaker is an extremely small, single unit soundbar and it is clear that Bose had designed this one with simplicity and easy of use in mind while also taking into account the limiting space many of its users would have. The Bose TV Speaker actually is the successor of the Bose Solo 5 TV and is basically a more compact version in looks of the Bose Soundbar 500 and Soundbar 700 that we had reviewed some time ago in order to be able to have a more unified lineup with similar designs but obviously with different features and capabilities. Bose is such a manufacturer that has been in the field for many years now and they offer some good quality soundbars but in our Bose TV Speaker review today we will be looking at their smallest offering in this category. But while some units have become bigger and more complex in order to come closer to performance to a full surround audio system there are others that aim for the absolute basics in order to provide the user a simple to use experience. ![]() If there is one thing certain is that soundbars have come a long way the last few years. ![]()
