Low rating cause of compatibility with some other bose Wi-Fi speakers and doesn’t stay link

I like thag this amp supports so many sources and allows you to power 2 sets of speakers. It’s very compact which makes it easy to find a spot for it in tight setups. It is actively which which is both good and bad. Good in that I dont worry about it getting too warm in a slightly enclosed setup. It seems to almost always keep the fan running on low, even when idling which emits a very faint fan noise all the time. Once its running the fan picks up a little but your music will easily overpower its hum. I do wish they had built in the ability to do A/B speaker switching. As it’s designed it’s all speakers or none.

This unit provides a neat solution for people who want to install a whole home audio system.
I installed outdoor speakers in a patio cover and ran the speaker wire indoors, connected them to this amplifier and have enjoyed music outdoors using my phone.
This is a great unit and awesome solution for people in similar situations where they want to add speakers in rooms/outdoors and control it all on their mobile device.

I purchased this from Best Buy and it’s the best purchase I’ve made yet. 125 Watts per channel RMS and 0.1% total harmonic distortion, 20 to 20,000 Hz frequency response. This system sounds excellent. I have two Bose 700 bass modules hooked up to it, and the clips RP 5000 F speakers connected and the system sound is excellent. Since thevBose base modules with the music amplifier takes over most of the bass and subwoofer frequencies, the 5 1/4 inch woofers in the Klipsch mini tower speakers with quality drivers is sufficient. They handle 125 Watts RMS continuous power at 500 watch peak. I did not get the second generation of this model. I got the first generation of the model because it handles more power than the second generation drops down to 100 watts maximum. The Bose system is a smart system which transfers most of the bass to the 700 Base Modules along with the subwoofer functions, allowing the Klipsch speakers to focus more on the upper bass and mid range as well as high frequencies. The same thing happens with my 900 sound bar with the 700 bass modules, the bass is transferred mostly to the bass modules and the sound bar can focus more on upper and bass, mid range and high frequencies. A lot better. this set up as it makes things very efficient and crisp. Also, both systems go very loud with solid strong bass all the way down to 20 hertz. A Bose sound amplifier is extremely powerful and it goes extremely loud. When you connect the 700 subwoofers to it, it is a Monster system. with the bass modules. Therefore, you don’t need to buy high quality speakers with big woofers you can get by with smaller high quality woofers quality offers and high quality twetters that can handle 125 Watts RMS. I got some help on matching up the correct speakers to the amp and the sound is just excellent. I would definitely purchase this amp and the set up I got. What is nice about it if you can hook up turntables, cassette decks, tape decks, any old school items along with that today’s streaming Sirius, XM, radio and listen to hey SiriusXM broadcast. I also played my Apple Music library with high resolution music at 24 bit 192 kHz, vinyl record quality. I noticed the biggest difference in the music is the strong solid bass, excellent midrange with great stereo separation and great treble high frequencies respons. The mid range is outstanding with the speakers. I would highly recommend the Bose music amplifier and include the 700 bass module. Then you can go where you want from there as far as speakers and what do you want to connect to a turntables, other old-school items as well as new school items with the streaming Wi-Fi services. It’s simple design makes it easy to set up an easy to use. The system really rocks.

I do not recommend getting one. It does not work. I tried to call tech-support there were like 50 people in line for Tech Support. The thing worked for about an hour and then stopped working.

Great amplifier more than enough power for kitchen ceiling speakers and outdoor patio speakers. Love it have paired with Bose 791, which the amp has a dedicated eq for those speakers. Bose app 4/5 needs work but I mostly used them via airplay 2 or bluetooth. Clean dynamic sound even in low volumes, love listening in to music, even better than zone from most A/V receivers. A little pricey but after having it for several days, decided this a keeper for the long term.

I bought this amplifier open box and I also bought the extended 4 years warranty. From the moment I installed it, this unit wasn’t connecting and it was resetting. Obviously Best Buy doesn’t inspect and sells a device that doesn’t work properly or as intended, then don’t want to replace it even tho after 5 plus cals with Bose technical support.

Sometimes the ability to have separate channels work at the sMe time doesn’t work.
YedelmysB –
the best amplifier, versatile, with several inputs and outputs, clear and clean sound quality.

It works great, specially if you belong to the bose family this is a must have, it connects with your smarts speakers and sound bars all the way to your hard, it’s pricy but it worth’s every dime
StephenE –
Easy to put together and great quality , my music sounds great
Timmers –
I have the old Bose SA-5 amp and the only complaint is it doesnt have a separate A/B speaker channel so you can swith between two sets of speakers. To be able to switch between your backyard speakers and front yard speakers or garage speakers is an absolute must!!!! Hoped this new improved amp would have added this feature but NOPE, it didnt! Come on Bose!! Really???!!!
Gentzleon –
The amp is very nice, perfect for our gazebo. It is a perfect size.
PapaG –
BOUGHT THIS AMP TO USE WITH MY BOSE 700 SOUND BAR. I COULD GET THE PASSIVE SPEAKER TO WORK AT THIS SAME TIME THE SOUND BAR WAS ON. I COULD GROUP THEM TOGETHER BUT ON SOUND WOULD COME OUT OF THE AMP AND NOT THE SOUND BAR SO I HAD TO RETURN THE AMP.
