Product details

The Bose Smart Ultra soundbar with Dolby Atmos and Bose TrueSpace technology separates instruments, dialogue and effects and distributes them to different areas of a room to give you a truly immersive
and spatial audio experience - you've never heard it like this before. Do you sometimes have trouble understanding the dialogue of film characters? Dialogue Mode with AI automatically balances voices and surround sound to achieve particularly clear speech reproduction. Two upward-firing dipole speakers and Bose technologies also give you the feeling that the sound is coming from all directions - even from above.

If you're really prepared to spend €10,000, our clear recommendation is the Beosound Theatre. Although it doesn't take first place in every category, it does impress on the most important level - sound. For those who are not prepared to spend such a sum, the best choice will ultimately depend on individual preference...

  • PositivePowerful sound with AI support
  • PositiveBroad surround sound
  • PositiveElegant presentation
  • NegativeQuite a high price, especially with extensions
  • NegativeBass mix a little too strong

The second Dolby Atmos soundbar from Bose is impressive - especially if you prefer music with a lot of bass or action-packed films. Although a few details are lost in the mid-range, the wide sound is convincing and can also throw a few Atmos effects into the room. Thanks to AI support, voices are always easy to understand without the rest of the sound being affected...
