I think this is one of the best reviews I’ve seen. Well articulated, precise, and I really appreciate the fact that you have used a professional mic to record the sound which gives the listener a clear sound profile of the device. Well done and keep up. Hope sound touch 30 will make an appearance.
Cheers

This was your first ever video review? Fantastic job. One of the best reviews for any product I've seen. Thank you for making this, very helpful.

[sebastianfarias]

Damn. Hats off to you man. I'm a new Bose user. So far I have purchased NC700, QC Earbuds and NC neckband. I'm listening through my NC700 and I'm impressed with Sound touch20 that makes me want to get that nstead of the 500. I'm here because I was comparing 500 vs 300 but i'm with Soundtouch, it reminds me of my sound editing days inside/outside the booth while we produce music xx
Thanks heaps!

A lot has happened during covid....
Most of my household belongings are now in storage (including my full stereo system) as we now share a home with others.
As such, I picked up the Home 500 as a mobile/portable/compact unit & have been pleasantly surprised.
The Bluetooth system is what I use (full library of tracks stored), the app I use for this has it's own treble/base controller & I'm able to customise to my hearing & the situation & level of volume.
All in all, quite happy with it.

Very good, and thoughtful review. I really appreciate the time and effort to being this relevant information to light for whomever wants to seek it out.

Wonderful reviews. Purchased a 500 and it worth every penny

[albertoadame]

great review. thank you for breaking it up into chapters as I was able to bounce back and forth between the different audio tests to understand the differences.

[RonaldBrown]

I've been looking at the Bose Home Speaker 300, so your review was helpful. You did a very good joy with the review, it was very thorough. Thanks for sharing.

It is one of the best reviews I have ever come across. Hats off to you man. I have a Soundtouch 20. I like it a lot because of its rich bass and warm sound signature. Hs 500 is punchier I guess but st 20 wins in bass appeal.

[robertharvilla]

I really like your reviews, but the best part is your voice. It's so relaxing and soothing that you should do ASMR videos. You definitely have an awesome radio or speaking/narrator voice. You should go for that in addition to your regular tech videos. Anything you do voice work for will be great.

This is by the best detailed review on youtube. My only critique is to do a sound test with different genres of music to get the full range of the speakers quality. Thanks for review.

[TanujRoy]

Hi thanks for making this detailed comparison video

[newidad]

Excellent, helpful review. I’m in the quandary of buying @ Bose 500 vs two Sonos 1 (Gen 2) for streaming music only in one room. Any thought? Thanks

[sundaywalk]

Very thorough & well spoken review. Thank you!

[techjpamorsolo]

Thank you in your opinion which is much louder bose home speaker 500 or bose sound touch 20 and who's sound quality is better

[rakeshacharya]

Nice debut. I liked your clarity of thoughts..

[SuperJCFLOW]

Thank you for taking your time on this review.

[TheJerbau]

I'm looking for a new Bose compact speaker to replace my cinemate 15 and checked the small soundflex and the Revolve link. But probably go for the 500 which will be the best compromise I think ;) Thank you for the exhausted review

Great video ..i have Soundtouch & a 500 ..i use them in different roons for different applications..i have found the Soundtouch best for listening to an 86 year radio show (Australian -"Yes What" )..originally recored on cassette ..then t/ferred to Sony minidics ...now onto DVD ...gives clear separation & picks up the studio sound effects well ..😅😅😅
