So the Bose Smart Soundbar, the new one for 2024 / 2025, is bassicly identical to the Bose Smart Soundbar 600, except it now has AI. Now even though I am underwhelmed by this new upgrade, the Bose Smart Soundbar is still a solid mid sized soundbar to pick up. Nonetheless, today we’re going to see how it compares to other great options out there like the Sonos Beam Gen 2, JBL Bar 300 and the Sony HT-S2000.
So the Sonos Beam Gen 2 isn’t all that different from the original, but the Sonos Arc Ultra has been completely redesigned on the inside from its predecessor and its going to give you much better openess and immersion. Now obviously, the Arc Ultra is going to give you much better overall performance over the Sonos Beam Gen 2, but today we’re going to see by how much and if its worth it for you to upgrade.
So personally, i really like the new Bose Smart Soundbar 600… and this is currently my favorite mid range soundbar to recommend. Now we’ve already seen how the 600 stacks up against its larger brother, the 900… but today we’re going to see how the 600 stacks up to some of its direct competitors like lets say the Sonos Beam 2 and the Sony HT-A3000.
