Bose SoundTouch 300 Soundbar Review :

Sound Quality :

The SoundTouch 300 is equipped with ADAPTiQ audio calibration. This feature smartly gauges the acoustics of the room the device is in and uses that information to customize its sound. The result is a crystal clear sound, no matter what you are watching or listening to. The sound bar uses QuietPort technology to produce the best bass by filtering out distortions in the environment. It also uses Bose proprietary PhaseGuide technology to make sure the sound is spread out over the widest possible area in your room. During our test, we found that this soundbar is an ease to connect with other compatible systems. The SoundTouch 300 can be connected to your home Wi-Fi. Using Bluetooth, you can play/stream your favorite movies/music.

The SoundTouch app offers the freedom of remote access via smart phones, tablets, etc. You can download music from Spotify, Deezer, Amazon Music, etc using the app. The SoundTouch 300 also lets you upgrade the sound quality. Just add a Virtually Invisible 300 wireless speaker to enjoy a gorgeous surround sound experience. You can also add an Acoustimass 300 wireless bass module to get a booming bass effect. The sound bar has to be controlled using the remote it comes with. The installation process if fairly simply. Just connect to your TV and get started.
