Surround Speakers

The speakers sound great for the money and work well with the Bose Smar bar Ultra. Despite being recognized by the software, I did not get any playback through the speakers until I adjusted the output levels several times within the app. Work great now and no issues since. Still would recommend. I’m using tabletop stands with my pair.

This is the second set of Surround speakers I've bought. Setup and adding both sets of speakers via the Bose App was flawless in both cases. No issues at all. The first set is paired as follows: Smart Ultra Soundbar; Bass Module 700 (wired connection) & Surrounds. (The TV in this case is an LG G5 OLED, 2025 model.) They seem to work just great in my Living Room entertainment area. This second set is as follows: Smartbar 600, Bass Module 500 (wireless connection) and Surrounds (in Master BR). (This TV is a Samsung NEO QLED, 2023 model.) To be quite blunt, the second set of surrounds are quite underwhelming! I get barely ANY volume from them, even after cranking the Rear volume up all the way to 100! At the basic initial setting I couldn't hear them at all. I have performed the troubleshooting steps (reset both the soundbar and surrounds) recommended by Bose, but that has only barely made any difference. I am quite surprised by this turn of events, since everything SEEMS to be up to spec except that I am barely getting any sound from the surround speakers. I'm not giving up on them, but I am certainly surprised given how successful the Living Room entertainment setup has been. Still working on trying to improve the performance of the second set of speakers.
