Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program ( What's this?)
I am a Vine reviewer, and often receive products before their release to the public. This Bose Solo TV Sound System is one of these products.

I received this sound system with no knowledge of what it really is. No expectations, except that it a Bose product, so I had an expectation that it'd be quality.

Upon receipt, the unit did not work properly. I contacted Bose directly and they were AMAZING. They immediately sent me out a new one, and explained that the product is still in beta-testing. (They were surprised that I received the product so early before its release.) I sent back the old one, and they told me that it had old software on it (pre-release). No worries on it being in the official-product. The second one had the same problem (since they sent out the second before they got the first back, they didn't realize that the stock was of old software). No problem--Bose sent out another. The rep that I worked with (they assign you one person to talk... Read more

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program ( What's this?)
The prices of flat panel LCD and plasma televisions of all sizes have really diminished over the past decade. Unfortunately, what has also diminished is the sound quality from the built-in TV speakers. While there already exists a market and product line for most home theatre sound systems--either as component systems, home theatre in a box set ups, or soundbar systems--most of these typically service your main TV that is 42" or larger. The best way to think of the Bose Solo TV system is as a soundbar for TVs 32" and smaller. It is designed to have your flat panel TV sit on top, although it can be placed anywhere--on a separate shelf, next to the TV, wherever, as long as you have cables that reach. The sound quality is top notch--what you would expect from Bose. I was very impressed with the amount of bass it put out, especially considering its size. It wasn't quite the amount you would get from a separate powered subwoofer, but it was leaps and bounds better than the TV's... Read more

Hi there.

Some optical connections require a bit of additional pressure applied in order for the cable to seat properly. You should feel a click when the cable is fully inserted. If this is not the solution for you, we'd recommend contacting our support group at 1-800-380-4831 for further assistance. Thanks!

Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program ( What's this?)
Although I have a nice Sony Bravia TV, the sound can be a little...disappointing. This is especially noticeable when we watch BluRay versions of movies like "A Bridge Too Far" or "The Battle of Britan" - the TV begins to vibrate and buzz when the planes fly over. However, not being an overall audiophile, I had no desire to install a surround sound system with five speakers. I was looking into getting a sound bar when I discovered the Bose Solo TV Sound System.

The Bose Solo is a single box, roughly the size of a standard DVD / BluRay player; the dimensions are 10.25" x 20". Not having to find additional shelf or floor space for the speaker is definitely a plus! According to the package, this is designed for TVs up to 32" and in some cases up to 42". The base of the TV must not overhang the Bose Solo, or else the TV may be unstable and fall. However, the base of my 46" TV fits on top of the base with room to spare.

There is a very small, thin, flat remote... Read more
