The main differences between Soundbar Ultra and Soundbar 600 are related to the acoustic performance of the Bose Smart Ultra Soundbar. They both support Dolby Atmos encoded content and optimizes content that is not Dolby Atmos encoded through proprietary TrueSpace spatial processing technology to sound just as spacious and immersive. The Bose Smart Ultra Soundbar also includes ADAPTiQ audio calibration technology, which adjusts the sound of the soundbar to best fit your room, no matter the shape or furnishings. The Bose Smart Soundbar 600 offers great dialogue intelligibility, spacious sound, but it doesn’t come with ADAPTiQ. While it is still a great performing system, it does not play as loud, as deep, or as spacious as the Bose Smart Ultra Soundbar. Soundbar 900 offers the same features as Soundbar Ultra, but does not include A.I. Dialogue Mode.

Proprietary Bose TrueSpace spatial processing intelligently analyzes signals other than Dolby Atmos, like stereo or 5.1, and upmixes them to create an immersive multi-channel sound experience with a sense of height in the soundscape. The result? Enveloping immersive sound no matter what you watch.

Unlike Dolby Atmos — which requires compatible content, hardware, content source, and speaker system —TrueSpace will take any content — regardless of how it was encoded or your equipment — and deliver that Atmos-like experience.

Works with Google gives you voice control over content playback on Works with Google-enabled Bose devices. This is done via an additional proxy device such as a Google Mini. The command is given to the proxy device, while the content itself is played on the Bose device. You can set up a Bose device as the preferred speaker in the Google Assistant app — this defaults content playback to that device. If you don’t set the Bose device up as a preferred speaker, you will need to include the name of the Bose device in the command.

No. It only handles the audio output from the TV, no external video goes through the soundbar.

Yes.

For best sound quality, the Bose Bass Module 700 and Bose Bass Module 500 should be placed on the floor against the same wall as the television and soundbar, with an electrical outlet nearby for the power cord. The bass module should not be placed on a shelf or table. For more bass, the bass module should be placed closer to walls and corners. For less bass, the bass module should be pulled away from walls and corners.

No. All sources must be connected to the TV and then a single connection (via the HDMI or optical cable) must be made from the TV to the soundbar.

Yes. It can be controlled by third-party remote controls that include the set of Bose IR commands.

Yes. The optional Bose Soundbar Wall Bracket lets you mount the soundbar to the wall.

Yes. You can group any of our smart speakers and soundbars (Home Speaker 300, Smart Speaker 500, Portable Smart Speaker, Smart Soundbar 700, Soundbar 500, Smart Soundbar 600 and Smart Soundbar 300) together for multi-room listening using the Bose Music app. This way, you can fill your whole home with music – either synchronized, or different music in different rooms.

Yes. Simply say, “Alexa, turn off [speaker name].” or “Hey Google, turn off [speaker name],” (if a compatible Google device is on the same network). This action will stop any content playing, turn off any lights on the light bar, and disconnect Bluetooth devices. If enabled, Amazon Alexa will still listen for voice commands in standby mode.

Yes. Bass can be controlled in the Bose Music app.

Yes. The Bose Smart Ultra Soundbar and the Bose Bass Modules all use the same wireless protocols and can be mixed and matched. However, the design language and materials of the Smart Ultra Soundbar and the Bass Module 700 are designed to complement each other.

Yes. If you desire even more bass, you can wirelessly connect two bass modules to your Bose Smart Ultra Soundbar. But you can only connect two of the same bass modules. In other words, you must connect two Bose Bass Module 700s or Bose Bass Module 500s to a single soundbar. You cannot connect one Bose Bass Module 700 and one Bose Bass Module 500 to a single soundbar.

Yes. You can cast audio content to your group of Bose smart speakers or soundbars through the Bose Music app or on the products themselves. Start by creating a group in the Bose Music app and casting to that group, or by pressing and holding the Action button on the connecting device to pair them into a group that’s playing a cast stream. Group your ground floor speakers, or all the speakers in the house and get the party started.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Powerful sound in a small package All in one soundbars have come a long way in a short time. For anyone looking for a compact solution without satellites and a subwoofer, the Bose Smart Ultra Soundbar gives you surround sound, good bass and actual Atmos upfiring speakers in a sleek unit with a good soundstoage. No fake virtualized Atmos, great dialogue handling, a well-designed app and smart assistant features. I wish it supported DTS. Hopefully they can add in an update.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Modern Sound is Unbelievable My old sound system was 20 years old. This brought me into the the modern age of sound. This alone has changed my pleasure of watching anything on TV especially movies! I liked it so much I also purchased the 700 Base unit. WOW!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Won’t go to IMAX theaters anymore… After thorough research, I opted for the Bose Ultra Soundbar, specifically for its AI Dialogue Mode that enhances vocal clarity. Adding the Subwoofer 700 was an excellent choice—it's truly worth the investment. The combined performance is phenomenal. Watching movies on my 65” TV like Gladiator and Top Gun 2 revealed astonishing detail, capturing everything from soft whispers to the crackling of burning branches and thrilling flybys, all with remarkably clear vocals and deep, pristine bass. Setting it up took less than 15 minutes and was incredibly simple. Don’t miss out on the ADAPTiq headset calibration—it fine-tunes the sound system based on your room's surfaces, furniture, and other elements, ensuring an optimized audio experience."

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome Theatre Experience !! I am having a great experience with the new Smart Soundbar!! The additional rare speakers make it better than a theatre experience with amazing clarity. The BT connectivity of different devices is pretty cool and easy to install and operate, which is a significant improvement. Using the TV is made easy with the BT again, and I can enjoy the same or similar experience with it. Overall a fantastic product compared to all other devices that i have used so far and it is a worthy purchase.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love it!!! I could not recommend this soundbar more! The set up was quick and easy so my family was able to enjoy the sound within minutes. The sound is crystal clear and fills the entire room like you are in a movie theater. It is also easily adjustable through the app. I can definitely tell the difference from our last surround sound with the Dolby Atmos feature. The design is both sleek and elegant and looks great sitting on the fireplace mantle! Worth the investment!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Stylish Soundbar with Awesome Clarity We needed a new soundbar for our gaming area, and the Bose Smart Ultra Soundbar more than fits our needs. The first reason I love it is due to the beautiful, non-obtrusive design. It fits nicely at the base of our television, its glossy piano-black finish adding a touch of class. It is low and sleek, so doesn't get in the way of the screen at all. I think it took us only two to three minutes to set up. Power cord, HDMI-eARC, and we were up and running. The sound it produces is just beautiful. We've listened to music, watched live college football games, streamed our favorite tv shows and the newest blockbuster movies. The Smart Ultra Soundbar performs flawlessly in each of these tasks, filling our medium-sized room with clear, crisp sound that envelops us. The BOSE connect app is intuitive to use (just like the dedicated remote). We particularly are enjoying the AI-based dialogue enhancement feature. So many shows and movies have seemed harder to hear the dialogue in for the past few years, and this feature all-but-eliminates the problem. I will definitely recommend this soundbar to any friends and family looking for one. Extremely happy with the product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Cant get enough of it! The design of the sound bar is very impressive; sleek, modern, and capable of elevating any living room. I was so impressed by the ADAPTiQ technology; allowing me to hyper-customize the sound quality of the sound bar based on preferred sitting areas in my room. This feature really gives a "next level" experience and is a nod to Bose's long-standing reputation of quality and innovation. The sound bar comes equipped with all the ports you could need: HDMI, HDMI eARC, or Optical Cable and effortlessly connects to Bluetooth, Chromecast, and Airplay. I have enjoyed this sound bar so much that I have invested further in other Bose sound system products to complete my experience.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing sound and quality! Wow! I did not know what I was missing until I received this fantastic product! The sound is crisp, clear and robust! The setup was a breeze. It's low profile, unobtrusive and fits nicely under my TV, yet packs a massive sound punch. It integrated nicely and seamlessly with my TV setup, as well. Highly recommend this to anyone looking to boost their home sound system game!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from so much power in such a small package The Bose Smart Ultra soundbar has so much power in such a small package. The sound was like being in a movie theatre while being in the comfort of my own home. My husband installed the soundbar in 5 minutes. I installed the Bose Music app and was able to easily adjust levels and volume from my phone. I was also able to easily stream music to the soundbar from my phone. The Ultra soundbar had many connections including hdmi eArc, optical sound, wifi, or bluetooth. I was also able to stream to the soundbar through airplay and chromecast. I’m very happy with the soundbar. A+!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Modern design and great sound! I've been using the Bose Smart Ultra sound bar for about a month now and I am very happy. Sound quality was amazing. I connected the soundbar to the Bose Music app and was able to easily control levels and sound settings. Streaming to the soundbar was fast and easy through a variety of connections. Connection was easy using the HDMI eARC port. There is a physical ethernet port as well as wifi for connecting to the internet. An optical sound port is present if you have an older TV. The unit is very slim and has a low profile with a smooth and shiny black finish. It attracted some fingerprints, but was easy to wipe away. Overall I'm extremely happy!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Immersive Sound The Bose Smart Ultra Soundbar is a big upgrade for us. With our old soundbar system, I was always asking my husband if it was turned on as the sound quality was so low. He would always say yes, and I would be surprised. With this Bose soundbar, there is no question it's on and working. You can hear the direction of all sounds and it feels like you're in the theater. I love how loud it can get. It brings our entertainment viewing to a whole new level. The fact that it's Alexa responsive is also a huge plus. It was really easy to set up and although it's a bit longer than our other one than we would like, it's well worth it. We love the modern look.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfection Best sound system i ever purchased the sound works perfectly in each one was a little disappointed when I couldn't connect an extra pair of 700 surround speakers but in forums you can connect 2 700 subs which im considering investing in
Date published: 2023-11-02
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Super impressed, great investment, but... First of all I am really impressed with the quality and the high gloss definition the soundbar has. when installing it I observed that is really hard to leave trace of your fingerprints on it. The installation was as easy as it could be. very happy to to being able to adjusted to my favorite 5 spots in the room for optimal sound. Sound quality is stunning, nothing less I was expecting from Bose, however, in my opinion and comparing it with my previous sound system, the subwoofer is necessary and need to be added to the system. combining the prices of the subwoofer and the soundbar it is a really high price but you will end up with a extraordinary system for your movie nights. The system in my opinion is the greatest option for a person living in an apartment due to the low subwoofer so it will be clear voice, deep sound and happy neighbors.
