Wish I knew how they sounded... so I have a Bose sound bar with the Bose sub. Everything was good. Got these little guys. Tried to connect them. Now my sound bar just happens to stop working and can't connect to my sub... Not saying it's due to this product. But I did spend 700 bucks on this and now I have to buy a sound bar?? Ima just return these and try a different brand.I'm sure these sound good. And without the soundbar those product is pretty much useless.

I bought the 700 soundbar and subwoofer together and was skeptical about the rear speakers simply because of the price. After ADAPTiQ calibration upon set up its well worth the money. The sound is better that I expected. Would buy again, highly recommend.

Thought the Ultra Sound Bar and the P700 together were amazing .. but after adding the P700 to the system, the experience has been simply out of the world. Just love it.Wish assembly instructions were clear and would expect less of wires from BOSE!

These are expensive, but they are good. They are tiny; about the same size as a 250ml can of tonic water. And yet, they generate a convincing and loud sound that is much better dispersed than the nearly invisible surround 300s. There’s better integration with the Bose front speaker bar too, and no ‘point source’ for surround effects.Obviously these are not going to compete with a full size dedicated home cinema installation, but as a non-intrusive surround solution for your drawing room, these are discrete and very effective.

These speakers are incredibly small compared to other surrounds I've used with a receiver. They pair nicely with my Bose 900 sound bar and after performing the auto tuning, they sound great. I found I need to run them at about 80% volume setting as they were too low initially. I also purchased stands that work well for separating them.

Fue complicado encontrar la configuración para que sonaran espectacular, ya que se oían muy bajitas en la reproducción de películas.El remedio fue conectar el cable óptico original de Bosé en lugar del genérico que tenía esto en una TV LG 2023Después de eso el resultado es facinante

Great speakers that deliver. They complete the Bose surround sound experience. I have it paired with a soundbar 700 and Bass module 700. Everyone that complains about the level of sound they output hasn’t experimented with their settings to get the best audio output. My only complaint is that they should have came with the optional table stands.

I recently bought the Bose 900 soundbar and 700 subwoofer. I am extremely happy with both of them but still felt that was an element of that full room sound experience missing. I was hesitant to buy these 700 surround speakers because of the price for such small speakers, as well as the reviews saying how quiet they are. Let me say right away that if you plan on using adaptiq for these, you are probably not going to like them because of how quiet they are. I personally don't use adaptiq at all on my system. I find that tuning it to my preferences is the best option to get what I want out of it. If you use adaptiq, these are going to be very quiet. An option to do is cover them with a rag while using adaptiq, thus quieting the pings from the tune and having them tune themselves louder. By not using adaptiq, these put out a TON more sound. They absolutely give me that full room sound cinema like experience that I want. Also, these are not for bass. These are for all of the clearer high end surrounding sounds that you aren't hearing with out them. The full music sound, the shoes on a floor, the explosions and bullets feeling like they are whizzing past you. I was completely hesitant on these but I am glad I decided to try them because they absolutely make a world of difference in your audio experience. HIGHLY recommend

After purchasing Bose Soundbar 900 and Bass Module 700, I was really impressed with how well they performed. As a result, I went ahead and completed the system by purchasing the Bose Surround Sound Speakers 700 and the Bose Omni Jewel Stands to go with them.Pros: The speaker is definitely made of pure quality.Nice & Sleek lookingSound Quality is niceEasy pair and set up through Bose app to the soundbarCatches all the background sounds from the movie and gamingCons:Speakers are smaller than the plug unit it comes with.Speakers are not very loud even as I have it at level 100.Pricey for speakers that are not very loud.Overall: Despite the fact they are not very loud, it is still noticeable and enjoyable and completes My Bose System. I am happy with it. I wish it wasn’t over $500 bit I have no regrets. They are still very nice speakers and I recommend them if you have the means.

Ok here is the deal with these. You really don't get LOUD out of them when watching a movie because they are only going to pick up certain sounds and deliver those specific sounds at a surround sound level based on the volume you are listening to. EXAMPLE: you would here the hills of a persons shoes while walking and that should not be as loud as a person talking or the echo of wind. The speakers deliver background/echo/supplemental/additional/ sounds. Not going to deliver the sounds nor level that is coming from the Bar.The 700 Bar and 700 sub (without these) are a solid combo for watching movies. These speakers don't produce loud sound during moovies because its SPECIFIC sounds hat they are design to produce during movie play at a specific volume. (MY OPINOIN) The addition of these speakers are very noticeable.Now playing music is when these speakers absolutely pop which completes the 700 system, (Bar, Sub, Surround speakers). Their sound impact is BOSE and unmatched. PERIOD!!!.You will not be disappointed with this buy at all. I was almost going to send them back until I played music through them. Rock, Country, Rap, R&B, and Blues.The wireless feature and maintaing the BOSE quality wirelessly brings the price which I do think is still a bit high. But you know BOSE is going to charge for it.I think BOSE could have sold these speaker for less money. For this reason, I gave them a 4 star for "value for the money."If you want BOSE but on a tight budget then you can enjoy Bar and Sub. If you can get this in your budget then you should.

Al principio no creí que valieran todo el dinero que costaron.Primero me sorprendió lo diminutas que son, no vi las medidas, pero por las fotos creí que eran más grandes.He leído que mucha gente ha tenido problemas para vincular las bocinas a la barra; sin embargo, yo no tuve ningún problema con ellas, ni con la app, fue muy rápida la configuración.Pero al principio note que no eran muy potentes, no percibía el sonido del sorround en las películas aún teniendolo al 100 en la configuración de la app. Realicé varias veces la calibración sin notar mejora alguna. Esto me decepcionó mucho ya que no fueron nada baratas. En donde si notaba sonido era cuando ponía música de Spotify.Pero un día me di cuenta que mi televisor (Sony A8G) en la configuración de audio estaba en modo PCM, teniendo otras dos modalidades, Auto 1 y Auto 2. Cuando lo cambié a Auto 1, no saben lo sorprendido que quedé con el sonido de estas dos bellezas!!!!!.El sonido es cristalino, muy nítido y potente.Creo que PCM está más enfocado al sonido estéreo y es por eso que no sonaban como yo esperaba.Ahora estoy super feliz con ellas, el sonido de la Soundbar 700, con el Bassmodule 700 y las Sorround Speakers 700 es espectacular.¿Que si valen la pena?, Valen la pena cada maldito centavo. =)Como sugerencia, pongan la película "Matrix Revolutions", tiene muchos efectos especiales que hace que se escuchen espectaculares estas hermosuras de bocinas, no se si es por que las tengo instaladas en el techo, pero en la batalla final de Neo y Smith, los truenos se escuchan arriba y no atrás donde las tengo instaladas. Es increíble.

I originally purchase the 700 soundbar and sub because of the ability to have rear speakers, something my Cinemate II system lacked. I did not purchase the rears at the same time and as I looked at some online reviews I became doubtful on the need and quality. Complicating the decision was whether to go with the 180-surround set or the full 360 Bose 700 set. Because of the extra money and peoples comments I was not going to go for the 700’s. But I decided to give them a try first to see, figuring I could always return if I did not like them.Well with the first night they were hooked up I knew I was keeping them, I can’t believe the other reviews and I have to question those people’s setup or expectations. You add the rear speakers to a system to help fill the room with sound and these little speakers do that completely. Now important to realize your sound output has to support 5.1 or you won’t hear any sound out of them. So, as I watch YouTube, I hear nothing out of them, which is expected. Then while some shows make use a little out of them like Suits, that shows creators have chosen not to really use 5,1 and to be honest it does not really need to. But that does not mean a drama could not do a better job. For example, Mindhunters uses 5.1 amazingly and I am hearing sounds I did not know existed. Prior to adding the rears, I heard good sound out of the sound bar, but after I would hear all the background noises. A lot of the show happens in jails and you hear the closing and opening of jail cells. In the background This is just lower level back ground noise, but completely adds the show. Now watch Star Wars or 6 Underground on Netflix and you will be blown away with the room filling sound between the soundbar, the sub and now the rear 700’s it just completes the entire setup.I had read the speakers were small, but not having seen them prior to my Amazon order I was surprised how small they actually were. But this is a complete plus, they hide nicely in the room, but the sound is amazingly strong. I did turn them up in the app to hear more, but that’s why the feature exists, some seem to say that as a downside. Remember your rear speakers do not produce all the sound and are meant only for specific ones that the show’s creators decide will add value to the show you are watching and in my mind these speakers knock it out of the park.I had intended to also pick up the 180 set to compare and maybe save some money. But in the end, I am too happy with the 700’s that I know longer intend to do the comparison and keep what I got. So, I cannot answer whether you could save some money and get the same out of the cheaper Bose speakers. But I can say you should not be disappointed with the 700’s and let’s be honest if you are looking to save money you don’t buy Bose. You buy Bose because you know you are getting superior sound and quality, but it is at a price. I also find that more expensive Bose systems do usually offer better sound then their cheaper cousins, but that’s just my opinion.
