Our Favorite Compact Soundbar Is $100 Off
"Our favorite compact option, where you might have limited space or a smaller room, is the Bose Smart Soundbar. It's currently marked down to $400 at retailers like Amazon and Best Buy, a discount of at least $100. It's easy to use, small enough to squeeze into tight spots, and still has all the features you'd come to expect from a soundbar."
"Despite the tiny footprint, the Bose Smart Soundbar is capable of surprisingly expansive sound, which our reviewer Ryan Waniata calls out in particular, even if you're just watching sports. Without a dedicated subwoofer, it lacks some punch in the bass department, but is still impressive, with surprising clarity, especially considering how little space it takes up. Because it sports Bluetooth, you can even use it as a dedicated speaker for music, a role it handles quite well."
The Bose Smart Soundbar offers a compact upgrade over TV speakers, currently discounted to about $400. It produces surprisingly expansive, clear sound for its small footprint and handles music via Bluetooth. The lack of a dedicated subwoofer reduces low-end punch, though overall clarity remains strong. AI Dialogue mode enhances speech intelligibility without distorting background audio or music. Pairing with Bose Ultra Open Earbuds enables Personal Surround that blends open-ear audio with the soundbar, augmented by Dolby Atmos support. Larger soundbars with extra drivers or a dedicated subwoofer can provide deeper bass for those with more space.
