Rated 4 out of 5

Excellent sound improvement

I think the equipment is wonderful. I upgraded from my old (very old) Acoustimass system to external speakers, base, and sound bar. The sound is very good. The seperation is good. The bass is incredible, and the set up was wayyyyyyy easy!! Kudos to whomever engineered the set up....excellent job.

Soundbar is amazing but Connecting 700 sub has some chirping sounds even when you put volume to 0, I think it's interference but we will test with direct cable and see that goes away, other than that I love Bose

Disappointing.

The ultra sound bar and Bass Module 700 are awesome. As I was setting them up on 3/6 I received an email offering them for approx $400 less than I paid. I immediately contacted support asking for a price match refund. I received back a canned email acknowledging my email and never heard from them again. I received another sale email this Morning 3/16, and many others in between. So dissappointing from a company that brags so hard about customer service.

Sounds good

I previously had a Bose Soundbar 600 before it failed, so I bought the Smart Ultra. I'm sure the sound was better from the 600 but can not compare them side by side. I hope I do not have any problems like I had with the 600, time will tell.

Not Great!

I've owned for about a year. Sound is pretty good. I bought the 700 Bass speaker and surround speakers. I have lots of trouble getting it to turn on with the TV (using ARC) HDMI. I really wish I had returned it. Very aggravating.

All round excellence

I bought the Smart Ultra Soundbar and Bass Module 700 to replace an ageing CineMate system. With the passage of time, I was ready for the new system to offer more and sound better, but the reality exceeded my expectation. It looks great and sounds fantastic. I'm old enough to remember what a faff it was to configure new audio technology, but the set up of the Smart Ultra and bass module couldn't have been easier. Even running the AdaptiQ sound calibration system was quick and straight forward and being able to control the entire system from the Bose app makes life easier. But it's the sound quality that really sets the system aside, for me it lifts watching movies to another level. If it lasts as long as my old CineMate system I'll be very happy.

Bose hits another one out of the park

I purchased the Ultra Soundbar in January 2026.....it was the latest in a very long list of Bose products I have purchased over the years. The quality of construction and the ease of installation was so easy with the Bose App on my Android phone. The ATMOS sound is a step up from the already great Dolby sound. I am still learning how to set up a proper ATMOS environment. What really got me...in February I notice the Ultra Soundbar went on sale...I contacted Bose and they credited my card the entire discount....THAT IS SERVICE!

Upgraded from Smart to Ultra Soundbar

Upgraded from Bose Smart SB to Bose Smart Ultra SB. It is better sound than the Smart SB but, not convinced the Ultra SB is worth the extra cost at full price $999. At the sale price of $749 it's definitely worth the $$. I performed the AdaptIQ function with headset and ended up turning the feature off after a few days as in my opinion the sound is better without it. On the other hand, we do like the A.I. Dialogue Mode turned on. Thanks Bose for another outstanding product.

Good sound system that can be improved

I purchased this soundbar as a part of a sound system. The soundbar is great but needs the help of the Bass module to get the low end sounds. The surround speakers are OK but not great - if the surround speakers were better my rating would be a 5.

Expensive but worth it

I have resisted buying a sound bar for years. I almost bought the Bose speaker or Samsung sound bars. When I watched the Smart Ultra online, and heard the difference, I decided to buy it with their 30 day guarantee. I installed it in my small office and it's perhaps overkill, but is fantastic. We hear sound we have never heard before. We hear hoofs or drums beating from behind us....with no backside speaker. We could not be more pleased and it was worth every penny.

Perfect sound bar!!

This is perfect for my new home. Vaulted ceilings give this sound bar, and accompanied other speakers and bass module, the chance to really shine. I have had this before. This is a replacement unit because the movers stole my other soundbar. TIP: DO NOT pack it in the same box it came in.

Bose Ultra Soundbar

I considered buying the ULTRA soundbar after having the Bose SoundTouch 300 for years.Upgraded using the Bose upgrade to the ULTRA. This is the best decision I made. Sound is awe-inspiring and taken my living room soundspace to new heights. Easy to connect up and I even coughed up for Bose Surround speakers 300 -which have enhanced my listenig experience - whether music or movies.

Not easy, Bose is trying too much teck

I have had to spend way too much time to get it kinda working. My son and daughter-in-law spent too much time [hours] trying to get it to work. First Bose product that I have purchased that is not easy to use. I have purchased in the past, 4 other Bose products and they are great, wonderful. Should call it impossibleLink

The sound from this combination is excellent. Matched performance reviews with other soundbars and the aesthetic's of Bose made my choice easy and I am not disappointed.
