Bose 12+

It’s a great product and undoubtedly a significant improvement on my former sound unit. Build quality is good, and overall tone superb for watching movies as well as general TV. However, my first doubt came when the adaptic calibration didn’t work. The unit was sent back to Bose and I received a no quibble exchange (after a few weeks!) so I’m relatively pleased with that outcome. The app works seamlessly and I’ve experienced no issue so far. My dilemma now concerns further expanding my Bose connectivity as I think the package would benefit from a fuller bass end response. Therefore, I’ll have to purchase the Acoustimas 500 unit to pair with the Soundbar 500. I am a committed Apple Music user and Siri enthusiast. In addition Apple HomeKit is not supported. This is a major consideration I face before further purchase of Bose sound equipment.

App works, managed to setup my sb500 without any issues, connected the sub without any issues also and have the rear speakers turning up next week - assuming this will be as simple as the other tasks were. Sound is epic.

As others have said, could do with some more ability to fine tune things such as the sub but not overly fussed as Bose doing a fantastic job at getting this right from the off and the adaptive headset thing seems to work well too.

My major issue with this though is that I am unable to connect my (expensive) Bluetooth Turntable to this soundbar, simply does not find it. I’ve read elsewhere this is because it doesn’t have a screen as such, surely that should be what this app is for? To act as the middle man between devices and link them together. ‘BT Turntable is trying to connect. Allow?’ PLEASE fix this devs. I know I’m not the only one with this issue and for now I’m having to run my turntable through a phono to optical converter to then plug it into my speaker. Not ideal at all, connected to my £150 Samsung soundbar no problem and I’m sure this is a simple software update.

This is my first ever review I’ve put up and I hope it helps
This is my first ever Bose purchase so I was expecting great things I bought the quiet comfort earbuds ultra cost me £300 so it was an expensive purchase. I bought them the week they were released after a couple of weeks reading reviews I decided to buy these due to comfort and noise cancellation. Straight away I noticed the signal and sounds would be scatty kind of like interference so I looked online and read that people had the same issue and would send them back. I stuck with them and gathered new tech would be buggy so would wait for the first update which came and went with no change and to cut a long story short. Its the app which is causing the issues, I have an iPad which doesn’t have the app and I watched 3 episodes of the boys and nothing the earbuds worked perfectly so if your having issues delete the app which is a shame cause it is useful and has lots of settings like the immersion and other bits but it’s useless and will ruin your experience like it almost did with me. Hope this helps
