Soundbar 700

I have the ultra soundbar with full setup, the 700 soundbar, ultra headphones, home smart speakers. And I m very satisfy I cannot say the same for the Sonos Arc Ultra full setup and the Samsung 990c that I both returned

I have been in the bose home ecosystem for many years. My main tv has soundbar 700 with surround soeaker speakers 700 and bass module 700. I love this setup! I then have other smart soundbars on my other tvs in the house. So that takes care of the rooms with tvs. On top of the sound bar, i have a portable speaker in my bedroom that can also be grouped to the soundbars. The portable speaker is “portable” and i can bring it with me to other areas of the house, or outdoor. I think this kind of the setup is the current limit of the bose home ecosystem as they have axed the bose speaker 300/450/500 series. You can always buy more portable speakers and disperse it around. If you are only looking to stream music across different speakers, you may be able to do it from your music streamer app. Spotify can do this. Hope this helps. I love my bose setup, but its a bummer that the home speaker series does not have a lot of options right now.

I have a Bose 700 sound with their cube surrounds downstairs, a Bose 900 with the 700 surrounds upstairs, and a Bose portable speaker I can move around the house. They all connect seamlessly and easily via iPhone for playing music. Works like a charm and stays in sync. Bose app works fine but isn’t needed except to add the speakers first time or to change the basic EQ or atmos levels.

With a room that size, I recommend the 700. The 500 doesn’t produce the same low frequencies and may sound boomy in a room that size. The 700 produces lower frequencies w ease, has better definition and quicker attack. You can turn the sub power output down and retain all the frequencies and definition. I have the 500 and 700 in different rooms. I use the 700 in our larger room and the 500 in the smaller. The 500 works in the bigger room, but tends to get boomy because it’s more mid bass frequencies bounce around the room. The 700 fills the room with no boominess.i currently have the output level set to -20 and it sounds great.

The Soundbar 700 is almost as old as my Soundtouch 300 Soundbar and I am pretty sure I bought it back in 2018 and it has been discontinued for years. That was over 8 years ago. To this date most controllers for electric equipment I've owned from many brands have needed to be replaced at the 5 year mark whether I pull out the batteries before they leak or not. My last 2 TVs from Sony and Samsung bought after 2020 and 2023 needed new controllers 2 years after buying them and neither company replaced them for free. The only Bose controllers that still work for me after 10-25+ years are those with batteries that look like quarters (2032) and miraculously the only ones with AAAs I have that still work, are the large illuminated remotes for the Acoustic Wave Music System, Wave Radio/CD II and Wave Soundtouch Music System IV. I don't consider any of the equipment I've bought crap or low quality because the remotes died and I don't expect any company to replace them free after 5+ years of using the equipment. I did expect Sony and Samsung to be more helpful but I just bought unbranded remotes that look exactly like the originals for around $10 and problem solved. Get the remote that looks the most like yours on Amazon if it has good reviews, or get a used one guaranteed to work on eBay and save some money from getting a new one directly from Bose.

Using a Bose soundbar 700 with the woofer and rear speakers

I love my Bose. Would only change it for an exceptional AVR set up.

Yes the 700, which I’ve had for 7-8 years.
