Pros & Cons
Pros
Easy to set up once you have unpacked and identified everything. The initial configuration requires calibration to your specific room. This is normally handled manually via a receiver, proper speaker placement, and skilled technician pulling it all to... Read More
The price. If your viewing area real estate is at a premium, these are worth consideration. Everyone complains about the price for this system well then dont buy it!
This sound bar is powerful enough to rattle pictures on my walls. Get this sound bar to minimize the tv's presence in a room, while maximizing the sound quality. For you bose haters out there, if your going to buy a sound bar you have to try out the c... Read More
System uses a unique audio calibration called adaptiq. This is a pair of headphone/microphones. Makes me think that the setup is really able to calibrate and measure the acoustics of the room.
The bose cinemate mimics surround sound very well. It works best with a large screen, cost-no-object home theatre. The audio reflecting technology provides a great surround sound feel.
Cons
Bose soundbar is over-priced and over-emphasized. The back ground sound effects are over amplified to the extent that they make it difficult for us to listen to character dialog. Secondly, the reflective nature of the surround sound just simply disapp... Read More

If it’s in your price range, i recommend it.

Adaptiq audio calibration system set up was easy enough and after the setup, the sound which comes out of the soundbar and subw... Read More

Setup was really easy, i just hooked up the sound bar, plugged the acoustimass into the wall and it was set.
) to reduce the surrounding volume and only keep the mids up when i need them (especially at night), i somewhat solve that by p... Read More
Competitiveness
Other than that this is a great soundbar and easy to install.
Highly recommend - although more expensive than other brands - as is bose tradition - i think it worth the price - sound perfor... Read More
As pointed everywhere true surround cannot be achieved with a soundbar, but this one can do almost 180 degrees steering and wha... Read More
I really like the design of the sound bar and the wireless acoustimass module.

Kind of defeats the purpose of the speaker if you cant watch netflix movies or listen to pandora with the speaker

I know it says keep other wireless devices away from the speaker but most internet tvs these days are wireless
