Overview
This Bose soundbar runs 5.1 channel surround sound with Dolby Atmos processing, connecting over Bluetooth or Wi-Fi. It ships with a bar mount and HDMI cable for setup against a TV.
The 5.1 channel spec paired with Dolby Atmos processing points to height-channel virtualization built into a single bar rather than a satellite speaker kit, which is typical of Bose's Atmos soundbar line. Dual wireless options in Bluetooth and Wi-Fi give flexibility for streaming audio outside of the TV connection.
- 5.1 channel Dolby Atmos
- Bluetooth and Wi-Fi
- Bar mount included
- HDMI cable included
Who it's for
Fits a shopper who wants Dolby Atmos surround sound from one bar without running satellite speaker wires, and who wants both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi streaming options. Less suited to someone who wants a discrete rear-speaker surround kit rather than virtualized height channels.
Strengths and trade-offs
Drawn from this product's published specifications.
- Dolby Atmos processing in a single bar
- Bluetooth and Wi-Fi connectivity
- Includes bar mount and HDMI cable
- No separate rear surround speakers, height cues are virtualized
- No analog audio input listed beyond HDMI
Performance notes
5.1 channel processing with Dolby Atmos on a soundbar form factor typically works by bouncing sound upward off the ceiling to simulate height channels, since there are no separate rear or overhead speakers included. Setup includes a bar mount and HDMI cable in the box.
