HDMI-ARC vs Voice Assistant Soundbar

We put the Bose TV Speaker up against [X] with a voice assistant, and the results were a bit of a revelation. While [X] boasted smart features like voice commands, the Bose quietly outperformed with its crisp, immersive audio and seamless HDMI-ARC compatibility. Our setup was effortless-plugging it in felt like a snap, and the Bluetooth ensured hassle-free pairing with our phone. The included remote added a touch of convenience, though it lacked the flashy tech of [X]'s voice assistant. Surprisingly, the Bose's focus on pure sound delivered a richer, more dynamic experience, especially during action-packed scenes and live music. While [X]'s voice assistant was a neat gimmick, the Bose's absence of it didn't matter much when its audio quality was so compelling. We're leaning toward the Bose for those who prioritize sound over smart features, making it a standout choice for a surprising, no-frills upgrade.
