Other soundbars are a pain to set up, are crazy heavy, and only work with certain TVs. But the Bose Solo 5 Soundbar is a cut above the rest. This actually has better sound quality than your TV. You’ll be able to connect to your Bluetooth devices and play music through the soundbar from wherever you are in the house.

Control everything with a universal remote. If you have trouble following along with some TV shows and need to put on the closed captioning to stay up with the dialogue, this has a dialogue mode that makes every word sound more clear. That way, you may even be able to watch Netflix without closed captioning.
