Overview

Bose Soundbar 500

ULTRA-HIGH PERFORMANCE WITH AN ULTRA-THIN DESIGN

This stylish soundbar is meant to be heard, not seen. That’s why we’ve engineered custom-designed drivers to keep the Bose Soundbar 500 almost impossibly thin, without taking away from the acoustic excellence Bose is known for. Measuring only five centimetres high, its profile fits discreetly under your TV screen, so you won’t even know it’s there—until you hear it. And with the Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa built-in, you won’t have to lift a finger.

Like the Bose Soundbar 500, it’s the little things that make a big difference. It may be our thinnest soundbar yet, but its powerful acoustics fill the entire room with sound you just have to hear to believe.

EXPLORE THE FEATURES

Sounds good, anywhere

ADAPTiQ audio room calibration will optimise its acoustic performance for the unique characteristics of your room – giving you the best possible listening experience.

Elegant lightbar

Not sure the soundbar heard you? An ingenious light bar helps indicate when your voice assistant is listening, thinking or speaking.

Clear voice pickup

Custom-designed microphones in both the front and the back of the soundbar deliver superior voice pickup, so the soundbar will still hear you even when the music is playing loud.

Proprietary drivers

Custom-designed transducers provide superior clarity while maintaining an incredibly slim design.

QuietPort technology

The soundbar’s recessed ports use a piece of resistant screen to reduce turbulent noise while getting more sound through a smaller opening. The result? Virtually distortion-free bass from a slim profile.

QUIET FOR THEM.

LOUD AND CLEAR FOR YOU.

Want to watch TV but not disturb anyone else? Now, with Bose SimpleSync™ technology, you can group your Bose Noise Cancelling Headphones 700 with a Bose Soundbar 500 or 700 for a personal TV listening experience. With independent volume controls, you can lower or mute your soundbar while keeping your headphones as loud as you like.

Built-in voice control

With Google Assistant and Alexa built right into the Bose Soundbar 500, you can control your music, get information and manage your day without lifting a finger.* Just choose your voice assistant to start listening. And with Alexa only, you can even make or take calls to Bose smart products, Amazon Echo products, and anyone in your contacts list. Hands free, phone free, and free of charge.** 

But what good is voice control if the soundbar can’t hear you? Experience superior voice pickup from a custom-designed eight-microphone array that will still hear you no matter how loud your music is. And an ingenious light bar will help visually indicate when your voice assistant is listening, thinking or speaking. Plus, it’s always getting better. Future software updates will unlock new features.

Google Assistant and Amazon Alexa badges

*Voice services (Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant) may vary and may not be available in all languages and countries.

**Call feature is only available with Alexa. To call products, both parties must set up this feature and be on Wi-Fi.

MUSIC. ANY WAY YOU WANT IT.

When it comes to what you want to hear, you have so many options. With Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Chromecast built-in, Apple AirPlay 2 and Spotify Connect compatibility, you can wirelessly stream whatever you want, however you want. Browse your favourite music services or play anything from your mobile devices. If you can get it on your devices, you can hear it through the Bose Soundbar 500. Music services may vary.
