The Bose Solo TV sound system will enhance the sound

I received this unit yesterday and have tried out a variety of DVD's, animation,music,action and the bose unit handles them expertly,exactly what i would expect from Bose. It even makes my CD's sound great when played through my DVD player so i won't have to pay for another player just for that.
I only had one small issue and basically it was because i tried to rush the installation and did not insert the optical cable all the way in,but one of the expert reviewers also had this problem so i don't feel very bad and i did go back and read the instructions again and did not have to call their assist line. Also be sure you remove the plastic covers on the end of the optical cable, thats very important also.
A great simply designed unit that does the job. If you don't already have one i would suggest getting a multi use remote and just put the one they give you somewhere in case of a emergency.
One more small afterthought- the users manual is very simplified and does not go into alot of techinical details on the operation of the unit. I noticed that sometimes i could not remember turning off the unit and come to find out it has a 15 min timer on it that automatically turns it's self off if you turn off your television. Nice feature,although the unit probably draws so little current that it's hardly worth worrying about and it probably wouldn't hurt to leave it on all the time,although i wouldn't advise doing that with any electronic device.

This is really awesome! If you know Bose you can't go wrong. If you have never heard Bose before you are missing out.

The Solo TV sound system has a bit larger footprint than I expected (20 ¾ x 12 ¼ x 3) but it is a cool looking system; all black with subtle curves and weighs just 10 lbs. It is sturdy enough to actually sit the TV on it (up to 40 lbs, see manual for exact size and position). It comes with a power cord, analog and optical cables and remote.

While it does not come with a coaxial cable (it does for Europe per the manual) I used the analog cable to hook it up to the coaxial on our inexpensive 20 inch TV and it sounds great! I also tried the optical on our cable device and it also sounds great. The manual lists optical as better then coaxial but you'll find many people argue that and personally I can't tell much difference if any. They both sound great to me over the built in speakers on any TV. You will want to mute the internal speakers of your TV - they'll only be in the way.

If you have music channels it also serves as a great sounding music player. I've been listening to music as I write this and it sounds so good - wow!

The remote is simple with On/Off, volume and mute controls but has the Bose quality look and fits perfectly in your hand

The Bose Solo TV sound system will enhance the sound of any TV. It is very easy to setup, has a great footprint, lightweight and only requires the power and audio cables. But most important it greatly enhances that bland sound coming from your TV!
