Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I gave this system a one star review because most people look at the one and two star reviews first, and I wanted to clear up some incorrect information that has been posted. People claiming the Solo will not work with TV controllers are wrong. It works with my Xfinity/Comcast remote, the only thing is, you have to press the AUX button to control the sound. Bose codes are 31229 and 31933. I bought the Solo primarily because I have a hard time understanding what people are saying on many of the TV shows and I recently got rid of my old 5.1 system since I don't listen to CD's anymore. The speech clarity of the unit is great, and I am satisfied with the over all sound. The unit is not comparable to a surround system but sounds better than the sound bar systems I have listened to. Bose based this system on the KISS principal which works for people like me who do not want to play with any more knobs. As far as complaints by people having hearing loss; I flew helicopters in VN for 2 tours and lost my high frequency hearing a long time ago and the Solo works great for me. I don't have to constantly ask my wife what someone is saying during a TV show. Before you write the Solo off because of a few negative comments, keep in mind that if you don't like the system, Bose will take it back no questions asked. I have been streaming iTunes songs from my Mac computer to an Apple TV and it sounds great on the Solo. Unfortunately Bose limited their market since the Solo does not have Bluetooth or wifi. Had the Apple TV not worked I would have sent the Bose unit back since I would not have been able to play iTunes music. 5 Stars as a replacement sound system for the TV 3 Stars for Music 1 Star for Features
