I don’t care how big your new TV is or whether its got an OLED panel or 4K resolution. The reality is that what you watch on it will not truly feel cinematic if you’re just playing the audio out of its dinky little built-in speakers. Luckily, you can greatly amplify your home theater audio experience without having to drop a ton of cash. Soundbars are a minimalist yet effective upgrade you can make to get a noticeable difference easily at a low entry cost. Take a look at this Bose TV speaker. It’s normally sold for $279. However, Amazon currently has it marked down for 29% off. That ends up taking off a solid $80 from the price, leaving you only having to pay $199 for a limited time.
This all-in-one compact speaker from Bose sits comfortably in front of your TV and will be able to pump natural, full-range sound throughout your living room. The speaker is equipped with two angled drivers that can deliver spacious and realistic sound, especially when it comes to vocals.
Hear Your TV Better
A common complaint about watching movies or shows at home—especially newer media—is how often they feel poorly mixed. By that, I mean I find myself often having to reach the remote to readjust several times throughout watching. Dialogue might sound like a whisper, so you have to push the volume up a few notches—just for the next scene to start with an explosion that now wakes up all your neighbors.
The Bose TV speaker fixes this with its dialogue mode. Enabling this feature will analyze what you’re watching and amplify the channels vocals are coming from. This way you can hear everyone on screen loud and clear without everything else needing to be earth-shatteringly loud.
Setting up the Bose TV speaker is super simple. You can connect it to your TV over either the included optical audio cable or use an HDMI cable, sold separately. If you choose the latter, HDMI-CEC tech can allow for the Bose speaker turning off and off with your TV and even letting you use your TV’s remotes for volume adjustment. Fewer remotes, less fuss.
You can even choose to use the Bose TV speaker for Bluetooth. I mean, you’ve got the speaker already hooked up in your living room. Why not also use it when entertaining guests with whatever themed playlist you put together?
Choose to either set up the Bose TV speaker just on top of a media console in front of the TV, or you can mount it to the wall. Do note that the wall mount brackets are sold separately.
