[@bigrod8159]

So wrong about this video at the start, great video. Keep it up

[@ramandeepsingh8146]

Ur absolutely right bro ur reason to get is immperesive

[@blue-zero4831]

Sounds fantastic guys. I have the Bose 700 it's also good but I'm wondering if the Bose lifestyle 650 would be louder??

[@WayCoolTech]

Is it the Bose 700 soundbar + sub woofer that you have now?

[@blue-zero4831]

@@WayCoolTech yes

[@ronedwards8239]

Louder isn’t always better! It’s the quality of sound. And yes the 650 is much better.

[@StovallRyan]

Just wondering if you've ever had any issues with your 650? I recently purchased one 5 months ago and day one after setup I have this issue where the LED light on the console turns red. When it does that the system won't do anything unless I reset it. But give it day and it does the same exact thing again. Bose has attempted to fix the console twice as well but the issue persists. Anyway ever had any problems with yours?

[@drnitintrivedi3511]

Hey, Can u guide me. I am a novice looking for some best home theatre experience and music with surround. There are options my friend is selling his bose lifestyle v 35 and lifestyle 535 ( on a website) . Till now I was considering greatest soundbar with sub from Sonos and bose 900. But coz of price I am looking for the used lifestyle V 35 or 535... Am I compromising heavily on the sound quality and surround effect..Plz help

[@larsnielsen855]

Whats your fine tuning on the system

[@DPPaul]

Nice Video! I am from Germany and i have one question, maybe you can help me. The 2 small rear speaker, how long are the connection cables? From speaker to digital receiver and from receiver adapter to wall socket? That would be so nice . Thanks.

[@WayCoolTech]

Thanks! The wall plug to the brick is about 50 inches. The brick to the speaker is long.. probably about 15 feet

[@patriotreno6279]

Wireless Bluetooth connections only have to plug into a power outlet. put on the bottom shelf of couch end tables plug into the wall power plug.

[@godwinajogi9103]

I love it and I have it in my home.

[@kirandsilva5410]

650 Bose life style is it discontinued ….. no Softwear update version available is it correct

[@davidmoore4567]

For those of us with 4k TV without EARC, no Atmos disks and an existing Soundtouch network this is a unit to aspire to. Only problem is that whole Soundtouch line was discontinued so I am quite upset. We use our Soundtouch 300s almost every day. Considering to get a Bose 500 or 700 unit. At least the firmware is still getting updates. Those with Soundbar 700 and 900 sadly lose backward compatibility (play all) with units such as that in this video and the NAS music playback.

[@st7650]

Does this have a built in dvd blue ray/4K DVD player or is it something I have to get additional

[@AlexGarcia-wf5hz]

The good thing is, no, you have to get players separately! I had an older Bose unit including a built-in player and once it’s broken I had to spent a fortune repairing it!

[@williamcarters716]

Do you still have the Bose 650 today?

[@michael-4k4000]

I own this system and use 2 subs. Its very good. Really wish it had Atmos, as this system has been around for almost 5 years would expect them to release a new system with Atmos shortly. Or discontinue the LS systems completely and just sell Sound bars. If i were buying now id get the SB900 with the sub and surround speaker for around half the price. If you think about it the SB 900 is very close to what you are getting from the LS650 front L/C/R. Ive had my LS650 for 4 years now, and I must say I feel like I'm not loving it, sometimes the sound feels harsh and I get head aches, I don't love listing to music on the system. This is my 2nd LS system, I owned the LS48, was able to trade it in for the LS650 and received a nice trade in discount. I think for $4k you can get much better speakers that provide more mid level response. I know a lot of people talk trash about Bose, if you ask my family they would say they sound amazing, and are small and out of the way. I have 2 Kef Q750 and an older Sony ES receiver that I just mainly use for Audio, those speakers blow the Bose out of the water, even just 2 speakers sound better with movies then the LS650. I am not saying to not get the Bose system, it is very good, you need to spend time listing to it, not just 10 minutes at a bestbuy, to see if you really like it and its for you. At the end of the day it only matters to you what system you like, there's no right or wrong for everyone!

[@MusicAnirban]

I have the lifestyle v35 and had the headache issue after listening for sometime. Then I ran the adaptiq system and the sound has become way more balanced and headache is gone as well. Please give the adaptiq system a try. V35 sounds great and I enjoy playing music through it. The soundstage and openness are impressive. It almost feels as if the band is physically present. Quite a feat for those small jewel cubes to deliver defying physics without real tweeters. I also have a full blown Klipsch/onkyo and doing A/B with it, Bose still holds the ground pretty well.

[@StovallRyan]

Over the span of owning your 650 have you ever had an issue where the console LED turns red?

[@zahiralibhai8444]

So I have the life style 600 with 2 subs & 4 rear speakers & it runs my £10,000 pioneer / dual Rel / monitor audio silver speakers very close . The Bose fils 25ft by 12ft extension with ease . Very loud clear sound with good deep bass it literally blows you away when watch 5.1 films

T bose lifestyle 650 is a fantastic system

[@juanrodrigo4882]

Hi! I have some doubts 900 soundbar + sub woofer vs. Bose Lifestyle 650. Any thoughts?

[@gary_michael_flanagan_wildlife]

I have the same question! Debating both. Did you get anything yet? I really want the surround but it would be nice to just have a few items to deal with. I owned the amazing v30 years ago and I loved it. So I wanted to know how these compare to the surround

[@juanrodrigo4882]

@@gary_michael_flanagan_wildlife I bought the 900 soundbar and Couldn't be happier. Soundbar 900 it's the latest tech, latest connectivity so that's why I bought this instead of the 650

[@gary_michael_flanagan_wildlife]

@@juanrodrigo4882 do you use it with the sub, module? How is it with music? I have heard some negatives and positives but I’m curious how the music is? Thanks

[@juanrodrigo4882]

@@gary_michael_flanagan_wildlife Yes, I use it with the Bass module 700 and the surround 700 and honestly I love the quality. I'm not an expert but I couldn't be happier. I grew up with my dad's lyfestyle v25 and everytime I go back to my parents place I think the quality is better for the new gen.

[@kumarg6774]

Haha it’s 1 channel as soon as kid opens up from box .. but jokes aside this is crazy sound

[@patriotreno6279]

How do you like your tv medium rare or well done? # one enemy of electronics is heat. So crank up that fireplace.

[@WayCoolTech]

That’s a good point .. I’ll spray it with the hose to keep it cool. It will cancel out the heat.

[@patriotreno6279]

@@WayCoolTech wow your way smarter than hunter

[@MasterEggroll]

I wonder if the new Sony ht a9 sounds as good as the 650. I have the 650 right now with two subs

[@smacholibre3008]

Question..what if your television dosnt have HDMI (ARC)??

[@WayCoolTech]

Hey Smacho - Then you would use an optical audio out from your TV into the Lifestyle unit. Almost all tvs have optical out for last 10 years or so

[@WayCoolTech]

The beauty of arc is it uses one cable for the audio and video, where yours, you will need a separate video cable (HDMI) and a separate digital audio cable (Optical)

[@themafia3119]

Amar Bose was a genius.

Bose introduce any updated version for lifestyle model in 2024

I love how he kick his dad out like his mum would do for no reason lol

[@aniruddhakitkaru]

Add one more sub. Your room will blown out by the thundering bass. I have two subs it’s amazing experience. Install rare speakers on ceiling for more immersive sound and Atmos effects.

[@cichlidfeak]

You can not run atmos in a 5.1 system

[@travisjones3961]

Thank you for the review. Bose just isn’t the quality player it used to be. They’re a lot better options with dual subs, ATMOS and 9.1.2.

[@ldavader2704]

Do you suggest Sonos as an alternative for a 5.1?

[@jailanimajid6115]

Doesn't support Dolby Atmos,I presume.

[@thomassiegers3007]

No hdmi 2.1 and 120hz no that’s

[@matthewcoles8378]

650 pricey, but it's worth buying.😊

[@thomassiegers3007]

It’s out of date it’s 2021

[@Tee-mx9nf]

Your set up is sloppy as hell bro do something about those wires it’s a distraction to the whole video 🤦🏾‍♂️

[@WayCoolTech]

You’re right. I gotta improve that. Thanks for the support and for watching!!

[@christopherlewis3615]

Even though I think bose sound is "ok". It kills me to think of the set up you could of got with what you payed for that 650. The adapt iq isn't unique to bose. All av receivers have this technology and its more in depth not a couple of options on a remote control. We're dolby atmos and 4k 120hz now. Bose are very behind in the tech. But long as your happy guys! I just always wonder why some people are "happy" to pay more to get less?

[@BC08]

Because Bose makes things simple and the end result is always impressive in isolation. There are absolutely better systems sure, but they usually don’t look as clean, require more fine tuning, and were more involved to setup. I get the appeal of both styles but I do not get the utter snobbery spewed at Bose. It’s like Android fangirls raging at iOS users, even though iOS is blatantly superior is many (most really) key respects.

[@rhowell52]

Way over priced. Bose should drop the price by 2 grand then they would be more competitive. Reminds me of the Nuance speaker 20 years ago

[@michaelj.kastner5165]

Its only $4,0000 !

[@Filo101Games]

The cringe alert tho 😂

[@radusorin3401]

Headphone sensors? 😂 it is a cheap mono calibration mic

[@WayCoolTech]

Good point. It’s not an overly sophisticated piece of the tech, but it does a pretty good job adjusting the eq in the room.

[@operamatthew]

love how none of the top reasons are sound quality. seems about right.....

[@Jut1911]

Probably because it’s a given

[@operamatthew]

@@Jut1911 nope, i’ve heard this system and sound quality would be pretty far down on the list.

[@WayCoolTech]

@@operamatthew All about preference and perspective. Ive always really liked the Bose sound but it’s not for everyone. It’s really hard to demo the sound quality via KZbin and cameras so I focused more on the usability and ease of setup which I think is a big value for this system. Few cords and no amps, etc.

[@operamatthew]

@@WayCoolTech as long as you are happy with the purchase that’s all that really matters. i’ve heard the system in person and not my taste for sure.

Expensive...u could get a better system for that price, so I'm told.

[@jailanimajid6115]

I won't buy Bose Lifestyle,for sure.

[@TheSkipinder]

Wow dished out on a lifestyle 650 at the worst time. All that cash on a non-atmos setup without 4k 120 hz passthrough, meh. Better luck next time buddy!
