I am very happy, however, somehow I cannot reproduce the sound heard in the demo ad.

I bought this about a month ago and am very happy with it. Hopefully I will be getting the 700 base module for it when I can afford to do so

After 13 years of using the Cinemate GS series 2, my wife gave me her blessing and said I can upgrade to this sound bar. Not only did she let me purchase the soundbar, she said I can also get the 700 subwoofer and rear surround speakers. I must've been a good boy in 2025. The soundbar alone sounds phenomenal and to be honest, that alone would've been sufficient enough in my living room. Now, with all three going, I'm in an IMax theater. The app setup was a breeze and Alexa enables me to rip tunes long enough to annoy thr kids.

Awesome sounding soundbar, purchased it and surround speakers for a new space in our house, an addition that is not yet complete. I had to unpack and set it up in our current living space. Surround speakers make all the difference. Sound is amazing, will be even better in the new space. Will be adding the sub at a later date. I'm a Bose guy forever.

I love this soundbar I got myself two of them, But I need another speaker to go with my soundbar. I order one I need another when are you going to give me a haft off the speaker? I love your speakers! I'm a 66-year-old lady I live all by myself and I love music, and when I watch my movies, I love that boom boom sound. so, I order a soundbar for my bedroom and now I need the other speaker to go with that soundbar. Please give me a discount on that thank you, Love you!

I bough this a month ago as a replacement for one bought two months previously that had stopped working / hung on a firmware update. The Bose support teams best offer was to return the first one, wait up to 25 days for it to be fixed and returned. So i bought another and received a refund when i returned it. The support from Bose was disappointing to be honest. The new one worked out the box, but again i'll say great when it works.. i have issues at times with it playing sound from a new sony bravia TV, plus Alexa working can be hit and miss.. In general it is working & the sound quality is good as you'd expect from Bose I upgraded from a Bose Lifestyle system to the smart ultra sound bar, surround / base 700 modules, main reason was the connectivity technology improvements. Lifestyle system was great, but a wired system & the blue tooth connectivity between speakers is so easy just connect the HDMI from the tv, set it all up in the app and your good to go...

I have had this for approx 2 weeks and still experimenting with it however it has great audio level responses by itself. The bass is impressive as a stand alone device. In arctic white, it blends into my decor seamlessly. I will get the surround speakers and bass module later to complete the outstanding set to replace my old Bose Acoustimass setup.

I bought this product approximately 1 month ago and finally got around to hooking up to my Samsung Frame TV. Physical hook up was super easy, just having to plug in cables to "smart box" that was included with television. The connection thru the Bose app was much less enjoyable! Very frustrating with NO online or telephone help! The Chat part of the app was not helpful whatsoever and I was stuck on hold for over 30 minutes when I finally chose to have a "callback " by an associate which NEVER happened!? After messing around with it for approximately 45 minutes, I was finally able to connect soundbar to Bose app. Hopefully future "help" with Bose is improved!!!

I bought Arc Ultra Soundbar and I would say the sound quality is awesome; however from my perspective, a woofer is needed if you really want cinematic sound quality.

I bought the sound bar about a month ago and while it's good, I'm not sure it's great yet. A couple of reasons I I don't think it's great are: the surround sound is inconsistent and at times doesn't even seem to be working and since the unit does not come with a sub-woofer (and even though I have one, it's not compatible with Boise products) there are times when the sound seems tinny. I'm disappointed that I haven't experienced that WOW sound that I have gotten from other Boise products.

After conducting a number of reviews and searches, speaking with family and friends, I purchased the Bose Smart Ultra Soundbar together with the Bose 700 Base Sub-woofer. The sound experience is amazing, so easy to set up and use. High Recommended.

The smart Ultra soundbar is awesome. Not even had it for a week and love it already. The tv channel are so clear and the AI sound control for speech and music combined is superb. We used to have a Bose Solo which was brilliant, but this is another level. Films and music sound incredible especially as we've paired it with a bass unit plus a pair of surround sound speakers. The system itself was easy to set up with the Bose app and also easy to pair with our phones etc. The system itself was not exactly cheap but well worth the outlay. We had our Boss Solo for 12 yrs so we see this as an investment in our home entertainment for the next decade or so.

I bought ultra sound bar and felt th sound quality was not what I expected because my initial take was it would be very good but I was kind of bit disappointed actually with surround music which was very low.The voices were clear that was an added advantage.

Had this for about 2-3 weeks. Really easy set up Great sound. I've added the Bass Module 500 and 2 Surround speakers and loving it. I have a 55" LG Tv in a 16'x13' lounge in an end terrace house. AI dialogue mode spot on.

I always wanted a Bose soundbar but didn't feel I could afford the luxury. I was wrong. The sound produced is better than the credit I ever gave it. It is worth every penny I spent. When it went on sale Bose found my price point evidently, because I bought the whole package. Now my room is filled with sound beyond my expectations. This is not my first soundbar but it is my best. I look forward to learning more about it as I enjoy the full rich sound it delivers. Highly recommend you go for it!

I have been a fan of Bose for many years, going all the way back to my Acoustimass 10 system! (Which I still have.) Unfortunately I strayed for a while with another manufacturer, but now I am back to the Bose fold again. Let me first say that I bought the Ultra Soundbar, the Bass Module 700 and the Bose Surround Speakers. All the products came in packaging that I could almost see as being almost Bomb-proof! Obviously that is silly, but suffice to say that the products were all in VERY SECURE packaging! Once I got everything out and set up, firing up the Bose App on my iPhone made the rest pretty easy. I did have one minor issue wherein one of the Surround speakers seemed to not register first time through. This in turn caused the ADAPTiQ calibration to fail, and the error messages were a tad confusing. ("I didn't hear anything" followed by a message that something was wrong with the ADAPTiQ headset and to contact Bose.) I went through the setup in the iPhone App a second time, found the "missing" Surround speaker and continued a second time, and all was well. (The Soundbar is connected to my new LG G5 OLED tv via the HDMI - eARC connection; the Sub is wired via a cable and of course the Surrounds are wireless.) After calibrating I tested a variety of programming sources, and am happy to say that everything sounds OUTSTANDING. Movies, music (either via Bluetooth or Apple AirPlay), basically whatever I'm listening to has that familiar Bose quality to it. I have been listening about a week now and have not yet undertaken ANY customizations to the sound output, other than enabling the AI Dialog mode. And I can say that it does work - quite well! As I'm writing this, I have just finished watching the movie Star Trek - First Contact (via Amazon Prime/Paramount+) and since I was home alone at the time, I chose to crank up the volume to what other family members would likely consider unacceptable levels! This Bose speaker combination did not disappoint in the least. There was absolutely NO DISTORTION anywhere and the bass output from the Sub was quite respectable. And again, I have not yet messed with ANY customizations. My living room is fairly large, and of an odd shape/configuration, having no real back wall, so the fact that everything came out of the speakers just fine is all the more impressive. I won't say that this was an inexpensive undertaking, but given the upgrade in sound quality and ambience I'm now getting, it will have been worth it in the end. I am happy to report here that virtually all the speakers I have now (this setup in the living room, master bedroom - soundbar 600 & base module 500, as well as a Soundlink Mini that I use at bedtime) are all Bose. I you are now, or have even been, on the fence about purchasing Bose speakers, I highly recommend them to you.

Been looking for a while to replace my SoundTouch 300. Was looking at the Ultra but price was a factor. Then the Black Friday deal kicked in and I got it for a great price. Easy to set up and connect. Great sound so far, with a definite difference in the AI vocal function. Looking forward to blasting some proper soundtracks through it.
