If there's no HDMI arc, how does it know when to turn on when my tv turns on?
You’re thinking of CEC, not ARC
Can you give a brief summary of each and their differences? Cheers.
- HDMI CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) turns the device on with the TV.
- HDMI ARC (Audio Return Channel) sends the TV audio to the Soundbar using the HDMI.
But as there is no HDMI on the this Soundbar, it doesn't support either function.
It is a drawback. I have my Bose connected to my Chromecast via Bluetooth. I have to press the Bluetooth button on the Bose remote and they connect after 2 seconds.
In case someone wants a soundbar like this but WITH HDMI Arc, I've posted this deal on a JBL soundbar which The Good Guys also has on sale for $124.
You need to manually press with remote
$143 with their auto price beat
Thats much better
Had one, took it back. Have to manually mute TV and control via Bose remove, connection via Optical cable not HDMI. Very basic, good for this price point though, full retail you’d be disappointed.
yep i also almost bought a samsung soundbar without hdmi but didnt.
yes this cheap but its basically trying to sell the brand name, without hdmi many will see this as failed product.
what's the difference between hdmi and without?
this whole thread has the answer here and there. many
@ChipsChicky: You can control the soundbar with your TV remote via HDMI (CEC). There's not a chance I would use BT or Toslink in 2024.
@Maths Debater: There's not a chance I would use BT or Toslink in 2024.
im sure bose includes a small remote so it will be infrared from remote to soundbar lol…
or maybe there is a mobile app? regardless this is for people who read BOSE $148 and go ballistic WOW BUY BUY BUY cant go wrong

Except for the "going wrong" part is to buy Bose in the first place :/
(PS am using Toslink :)
It's answered literally 2 posts above your question.
does this one has usb input and can be used to play from usb directly?
I got this for an outdoor TV and was really impressed with it.
Half the size of a number of other units (not to mention others coming with subs) but the sound quality through the mid range was so much better with this. And it still has an impressive amount of base. ^ Note the HDMI comments, but the TV I have it with doesn't have ARC anyway.No ARC is a deal breaker
Makes a good PC soundbar with optical though
Thanks OP. Got this for $118 after using $30 winter bonus credit I received via sms last week.
Thats something new.. good on ya
I have the same voucher but my local doesn't have stock.
I wonder if I can raincheck or something.
Did exactly this is anyone else has the voucher and is wondering.
hmm i got the same but from previous promo EOY - it says expired 30/06/2024 :(
Thanks, paid $143 with auto price beat, plus free Uber delivery, so should be here within 90 minutes

Next time please update in a timely manner

Bought one! Thanks OP
Bought one cheers OP. Wont tell the minister of finance just act suprised when it turns up!
Pls surprise me too. I will send you my address :d
Thanks OP, grabbed one.
Would anyone recommend this for the main lounge tv or not powerful enough? Can you add a sub woofer to these?
I would not recommend for large room. I bought one from JB deal and returned it. Sound was very underwhelming, the speech enhancement function was more of a gimmick. I bought one with the idea of enhancing dialogue but found my existing amp and speakers did a much better job overall.
@Froogal was it that bad? primary lounge room blu-ray 5.1 system is stuck on "please wait, getting ready" after a power interruption…it's so old, not worth replacing with AV receiver for couple hundred dollars…thinking of a soundbar as temporary solution as won't be in the same home for too long.
got projector connected to Apple TV.
Please share if anyone has their winter bonus code and don't want to use it before it expires.Thank you
Online is appearing as out of stock. I’m not sure if it’s a geo-location/store level issue or national.
Same for me, outta stock online.
Hope it being sold out online isn't going to affect my in store order.
Fingers crossed they allocate stock at the time of ordering.
Jbhifi sems to have this sound bar as well will they price match?
Yes they normally do.. go to live chat it will be quick
1st come 1st serve $30 voucher for over $100 purchase - GAASC0000930270. Expires 28/7
Used. Thanks
How to order? It’s said out of stocks
Anyone else got the $30 spare voucher? Please ping me.
Thank you!
Thank you OP, picked one up. No Uber delivery as it's out of stock, but with an extra $5 discount and only $8 delivery I can easily live with that as it's an excellent deal. Thanks again!
Price matched at JB as no local stock with TGG. Perfect as speakers for a PC setup.
Very happy with this for $118 (used $30 winter in-store voucher). Sounds great as a PC soundbar using optical. Quality and audio separation for games is nice and quality playing FLAC audio is great as expected from a Bose speaker.
Although, Would I pay $359 or whatever the RRP is…probably not but Id consider it.
When you factor in that there are other company's such as razer selling junk "gaming soundbars" at around the same $150 mark I consider this a steal.
Thats a great price for 2
