Key takeaways from this article

Today’s TVs pack a huge amount of innovative tech behind their sleek, almost impossibly thin screens but when it comes to providing next-level audio, you can’t beat a smart soundbar. A quality soundbar is essential for room-filling bass, clarity and depth, and adding one to your home cinema gives a big sound boost to your favourite movies, sport matches, playlists and video games.
Consider a Bose smart soundbar. With its exclusive Bose technologies, it’s smart enough to separate sounds from instruments, dialogue and effects, and place you at the centre of it all. Want to know (and hear) more? Here are 5 reasons why you need a Bose soundbar in your life:
1. Next-Level Immersion
You know that feeling you get when you’re in the cinema and can hear the on-screen footsteps behind you, the breaking glass on the ground and the plane taking off overhead? It makes you feel like you’re part of the action. To get that experience at home, you could install a 27-speaker system, but why would you when you could get an all-in-one Bose smart soundbar?
When movies, TV and music are your passion, you don’t want to just watch, that’s why there’s the Bose smart soundbar, with shockingly immersive sound. Featuring Dolby Atmos® and proprietary TrueSpace™ technology in selected models, the latest Bose soundbar has the power to make you feel everything you watch, from trending documentaries to your latest binge obsession.
No matter what you’re watching, TrueSpace™ intelligently analyses signals other than Dolby Atmos®, like stereo or 5.1, and upmixes them to create an immersive multi-channel sound experience. The result? Enveloping sound, no matter what you watch.
2. For TV And Tunes
More than just a soundbar for TV audio, a Bose smart soundbar also connects to Chromecast, Apple AirPlay 2 and Spotify Connect, so you can play music from your favourite streaming service, even when the TV is off.
Plus, with Alexa and Google Assistant, you can control all of your entertainment by voice command. The soundbar’s noise-rejecting microphones work together to listen in every direction for your command, so it hears you even when your music is playing loudly. Exclusive Bose Voice4Video technology means you can also turn your TV, cable or satellite box on and off with just your voice.
“Bose Australia is a company with almost 60 years’ experience in making premium audio products.

3. The Boost You Need
If you’re having trouble making out the dialogue on your TV, but the picture still looks good, it’s not necessarily time for an upgrade. Sometimes, a good soundbar can make all the difference.
“Often, the reason you can’t understand what’s being said on TV isn’t because of your hearing, but because your TV speakers are missing some key frequencies,” says award-winning technology journalist Alice Clarke.
“A good soundbar can cover the range, so you can enjoy the roar of the crowd and the commentary during the big game.”
4. Easy On The Eye
Available in sleek black or elegant white depending on model, a Bose smart soundbar suits the décor of any room, looking sophisticated without drawing unnecessary attention to itself. With a tempered glass top and rounded edges, it’s engineered to look as good as it sounds.

5. Plays Well With Others
One of the perks of buying a Bose soundbar is more music in more rooms. Group your soundbar with any other Bose smart speaker over Wi-Fi for a seamless listening experience throughout your home. It sounds incredible by itself, but it can also take audio to the next level when paired with a Bose bass module. You can also group the soundbar with other Bose smart speakers for multi-room music, so the party isn’t just confined to the living room.
