Surround speakers are designed to add spatial audio information behind and to the sides of the listener, creating a more immersive soundstage than what a soundbar alone can produce. For true surround, speaker placement and timing relative to the listener matter.
These speakers don’t function independently — they require a compatible Bose soundbar to receive audio signals. Understanding how they connect (wirelessly via proprietary Bose receivers) and how they integrate into the whole home theater system is crucial.
Wireless connectivity theory suggests that stronger, interference‑free connections yield more stable audio. The listed ~30 ft (~9 m) wireless range gives flexibility for placement in typical living rooms.
Power output and driver design determine how effectively speakers can fill space with sound. Although rated at ~120 W total, room size and reverberation characteristics will still influence perceived loudness and clarity.
Speaker design isn’t just aesthetic — shape, size, and placement affect how sound waves interact with room surfaces, which in turn influences the overall immersive experience.
The Bose Surround Speakers 700 are specifically crafted to enhance your home theater setup by delivering wireless surround audio that pairs with select Bose soundbars, bringing a more engaging and cinematic experience to movies, TV shows, and games. Unlike traditional surround systems that require bass/center/back‑wire connections, this system uses wireless receivers that connect to your soundbar, reducing cable clutter and simplifying installation.
These factors represent the most critical aspects that will impact your satisfaction with this product.
I went for the ultra sound bar and the subwoofer. Yes it's pricey, but got them on sale. I was waiting for the satellite speakers to go on sale, but they never did. So I bit the bullet and got them too because although the sound bar and subwoofer sound great on their own, I felt something was missing especially when listening to music, and I do listen to a lot of music. I have an extensive collection.
I recently bought the Bose 900 soundbar and 700 subwoofer. I am extremely happy with both of them but still felt that was an element of that full room sound experience missing. I was hesitant to buy these 700 surround speakers because of the price for such small speakers, as well as the reviews saying how quiet they are.
