From twangy slow music with subtle bass to stadium rock to aggressive rap with a heavy beat, the Acoustimass handled each style with aplomb. The better your problem and question is described, the easier it is for other Bose owners to provide you with a good answer.

Luckily, we had a lot of placement flexibility in our demo room and, after some experimentation, we found an optimal position for the bass module that significantly smoothed out the perceived spectral balance and alleviated some of the treble hotness.We recommend placing the Acoustimass® 300 somewhere at the front of the room for optimum sound quality. The free SoundTouch app gives you greater control of your SoundTouch 300 soundbar—any SoundTouch product, actually—from a smartphone or tablet. SoundTouch products use the SoundTouch app; while the Bose Home Speaker family uses the Bose Music app.

We listened to the Fred Hersch Trio’s recording of that old jazz standard, Mood Indigo, from the album The Fred Hersch Trio Plays, to see how well this soundbar and sub fared with acoustic sounds. Then, connect that source to the soundbar and utilize the “pass-through” capability of the SoundTouch 300.Additionally make sure your User-Agent is not empty and is something unique and descriptive and try again. We also downloaded the iOS SoundTouch app for our smartphone before taking the SoundTouch for a spin. Various instruments and sonic details, such as drum and finger cymbals, bells, and sirens, even beeping watches and sizzling grills, sounded consistently bright and tinny.
