The soundbar is very discreet and does not distract you from watching the TV screen. I would however like to see something to indicate it is switched on!
I originally had problems connecting via the ARC HDMI port on my Samsung TV and had been very frustrated with the reliability. I have since learnt to wait a few seconds and then the sound kicks in. Also, I have to use the remote to return it to TV mode if I have used Alexa for music. I really wanted this to work seamlessly in the background and integrate better with my TV.
ARC is the best way to connect to the TV as the remote control automatically works with the volume control on the tv remote. The sound is very true to life. Whilst listening to the TV I heard a car horn sounding outside and commented on it. I then discovered it came from the TV programme! Dialogue is clear, and I love the dedicated option in the app.
I paired Spotify and the quality of music is excellent, with great bass and treble. However, it is no match for a true surround sound system and I think it would benefit from the addition of the optional extra speakers.
I found the Bose remote control disappointing. There is no option to control the bass, treble, voice etc on the remote. It is very easy to misplace it as it is small and black. Anyone wanting to make adjustments to anything but the volume has to use the app on a phone. I also tried using built in Alexa but Bose sound bar does not support that function either.
I am impressed with the ADAPTiQ set up. No matter where I am sitting the quality of the sound is the same. An excellent feature. The soundbar has made itself very comfortable in my lounge!
