Our verdict

A pair of small rear speakers meant to join a compatible Bose soundbar over a wireless link. They do nothing on their own, so check soundbar compatibility first.

Overview

A living room with a Bose soundbar is the setting for these compact rear speakers, designed to add real rear-channel sound. The wireless receivers link them to the soundbar, and each speaker has its own power adapter and cord.

Buy them to upgrade a compatible soundbar with surround effects, using tiny speakers that are easy to hide. The limitation is dependence: they need a Bose soundbar to work, and the listing gives no specific list of compatible models.

Who it's for

Soundbar owners who want rear channels without running long cables across the room can place these on shelves or stands. People without a compatible soundbar, or those wanting a self-contained surround system, should choose a different kit.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Wireless soundbar connection
  • Tiny and easy to hide
  • Adds rear-channel sound
  • Each speaker has its own receiver
Cons
  • Needs a compatible Bose soundbar
  • Compatible models not listed
  • Corded power at each speaker
  • Not water resistant

Performance notes

The wireless receivers carry the rear-channel signal from the soundbar, so no long speaker run to the front of the room is needed. Each speaker still needs its own AC adapter and power cord. Rear-channel content only appears when the source and soundbar send it.
