Overview
Powering passive speakers around the home is the job here: the amp drives them and streams music over Wi-Fi from a phone. Set it on a shelf or use the included bracket, then control playback through the Bose Music app.
Streaming coverage is broad, with AirPlay, Spotify Connect, Chromecast and Bluetooth all built in, and grouping with other Bose Wi-Fi products spreads music through the house. Custom EQ is described for Bose in-ceiling and outdoor speakers, so other brands miss that tuning.
Who it's for
Suited to a kitchen or patio already wired with passive speakers and run from a phone. People wanting a surround receiver or powered speakers should look elsewhere.
Pros and cons
- Streams over AirPlay, Spotify Connect and Chromecast
- Drives up to two speaker pairs
- Groups with other Bose Wi-Fi products
- SimpleSync pairing with Bose headphones
- Physical input types not listed
- Custom EQ tied to Bose speakers
- Two channels only, no surround
- Speakers sold separately
Performance notes
Sound depends on the passive speakers attached and how many pairs share the amplifier. Custom EQ applies when paired with Bose in-ceiling or outdoor speakers, so other brands do not get that tuning. Streaming stability depends on home Wi-Fi strength where the amp is placed.
