The Bose TV Speaker improves upon the best-selling Solo 5 system. It is notably louder, has clearer dialogue, and overall improved acoustic performance. It also adds HDMI-CEC connectivity to be compatible with today’s A/V equipment and your current TV remote. Lastly, the Bose TV Speaker has a sleeker, lower-profile design, preventing it from blocking the bottom edge of the TV.

Yes. The Bose TV Speaker improves upon the Dialogue mode of the Solo 5 System, so now your dialogue is even clearer for TV and/or podcasts. Dialogue mode offers enhanced speech and pronunciation. It analyzes what you’re watching, separates the vocals from other audio elements and amplifies them. Additionally, the Bose TV Speaker allows Dialogue mode to be set as “persistent,” so you no longer have to enable it every time you turn on the product.

Yes. The Bose TV Speaker can be wall mounted with the Bose Soundbar Wall Bracket (sold separately). This is the same current bracket that is used for the Bose Soundbar 500 and 700.

The Bose TV Speaker is designed for use with almost any TV with an optical audio output (optical cable included) or HDMI-ARC connectivity (HDMI cord sold separately). Most HDTVs are also HDMI-CEC enabled, meaning if you have such a TV and connect your Bose TV Speaker with an HDMI cable, you can continue using the same remote control you are currently using.

Yes. You can enjoy your music and podcasts streamed wirelessly from a Bluetooth-enabled portable device that supports streaming.

Yes. The Bose TV Speaker can play music in synchronized 1-1 connection with any Bose smart speaker or soundbar using Bose SimpleSync technology. This functionality is being controlled by the smart speaker or soundbar in the Bose Music app. Note, you cannot connect a pair of headphones to the Bose TV Speaker for synchronized audio/video grouping.

Compatible products: Bose Home Speaker 500, Home Speaker 300, Bose Portable Home Speaker, Bose Smart Soundbar 900, Bose Smart Soundbar 700, Bose Smart Soundbar 600, Bose Soundbar 500, or Bose Smart Soundbar 300.

No. If you want to listen to your TV with headphones, you should use the TV’s headphone output. Many TVs have a headphone output.

No.

If your TV is HDMI-CEC enabled, you can connect the Bose TV Speaker to your TV using an HDMI cable (sold separately) and continue to use the remote control you are already familiar with to control your TV. HDMI-CEC will allow the Bose TV Speaker to automatically turn on when you turn on your TV and your existing remote control will control the Bose TV Speaker volume.

If you connect the Bose TV Speaker to your TV using the supplied optical cable, you can use the included remote. Or you can program a third-party universal remote to control (please refer to your universal remote control for programming instructions and the appropriate Bose IR codes). Also, the soundbar can be programmed to “learn” the volume and mute commands from your existing remote. See Using another remote to control your Bose system in the Bose Support section for instructions.

However, for music streaming, you need the included remote to place your Bose TV Speaker in Bluetooth mode and connect your Bluetooth-enabled device for the first time. Once connected, you do not need the remote moving forward. You can go to your Bluetooth settings and “force connect” from previously paired devices.

You can simply “force connect” your previously paired device to the Bose TV Speaker by going to your device’s Bluetooth settings menu and selecting the Bose TV Speaker. This will automatically switch to the Bluetooth source. It will also turn on the Bose TV Speaker if the speaker is off and put it into the Bluetooth source.

The Bose TV Speaker is Roku TV Ready™ certified. That means the TV Speaker is designed and certified to work seamlessly with a Roku TV™. When you connect your TV Speaker to a Roku TV™ through the HDMI ARC port, you’ll enjoy smooth, automatic setup, easy access to the TV Speaker sound settings in the Roku TV™ on-screen menu, and compatibility with the Roku TV™ remote.

The Bose TV Speaker may require a software update to support Roku TV Ready™. Roku TV Ready™ is not available in all regions. For more information, visit: go.roku.com/rokutvready.

Roku TV,™ Roku TV Ready™ and the Roku TV Ready™ logo are trademarks of Roku, Inc.

Yes. There is a bass level adjustment located on the remote control.

Yes. You can connect the optional Bose Bass Module 500 or Bose Bass Module 700 to the Bose TV Speaker via a wired connection. This requires the Bose Bass Module Connection Cable or a standard 3.5 mm cable (sold separately).

No.

No.

Any device with an HDMI-ARC, optical, or analog audio output can be connected to the Bose TV Speaker. However, we strongly recommend that customers only connect the TV Speaker to the TV’s output, so sound and picture will always be in sync.

Add more, anytime.


If you’re looking for even more bass or want to expand your system, you can add a wired subwoofer to experience theater-quality, heart-pounding bass. The Bose TV Speaker is compatible with the Bose Bass Module 500 and Bass Module 700 (Bose Bass Module Connection Cable sold separately).

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Sound, Great Options!! Bought this for my sister for Christmas, she was very surprised and happy with it and all the options it has. We hooked it up to her TV (Samsung), it only took a couple of minutes and BOOM she had great sound!!! Don’t be afraid to purchase without trying first, you won’t be disappointed at all. Trust me, I’m really big on sound systems…this is a great purchase!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice sound bar I first bought the Bose Solo series 2 soundbar from Costco. Got it home and set it up and realized it had no option for adding a subwoofer. So I ordered the Bose TV speaker directly from Bose. Super fast free shipping and the sound quality on this unit is superior to the solo. We are pleased with the overall sound quality and I don't know if I even need to add the subwoofer.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from awesome speakers didn't realize there was so much different sounds/tones that I've miss with just regular speakers from the TV, despite that the TV is brand new smart TV. Bose TV speaker brings high quality sound with just one speaker. cant wait to get the extra woofer.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from great sound system to listen when watching I bought this less than a month ago and I know that this is also a great sound speaker like other Bose to my computer and wireless speakers that connect to the internet and bluetooth, Thanks Bose products.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Replacement for Bose Solo My 10 yo Bose Solo was no longer working so I tried this one as a replacement. It is smaller but still puts out sound that is impressive. I like that it powers up on it’s own when the tv is on and also find the dialogue button helpful (both improvements over the Solo I had previously). The optical cable is also more substantial than on the Solo. This arrived quickly and was greatly appreciated after suffering through the adequate at best sound coming out of my 40” flat screen tv for a couple of months.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Quality We’ve always had Bose products. The quality is exceptional. From surround sound systems to outdoor speakers we’ve been happy with every purchase. Thank you for making a quality product.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I’ve learned, always go with Bose I had a different sound bar that I originally purchased because one of the reviews said it outperformed the Bose sound bar, especially its ability to enhance dialogue. Never again. The Bose sound bar is far superior. No more closed caption. Thanks Bose.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Easy Purchase....and Return My 14 year old Bose computer audio system stopped working. Did not know why. So I ordered the TV Speaker. It came quickly and was on sale. I hooked it up with blue tooth and it worked fine. BUT, later I checked and one of my connection cables was bad and with a new one, my old system starting working again. So I returned the item without any problem and will be credited. I even got a no charge on return shipping. I'll order again when needed. I appreciated the purchase and return policies.
