| Product Description: | Total immersion. For everything you play. When movies, TV, and music are your passion — you don’t want to just watch. That’s why there’s the Bose Smart Sound bar 550 for TV with shockingly immersive sound for its size. Featuring Dolby Atmos and proprietary TrueSpace technology, the latest Bose soundbar has the power to make you feel everything you watch. So you get a captivating sound experience for all your entertainment — from trendy docu-series to your latest binge obsession to the summer’s streaming blockbuster. Bose Smart Soundbar 550 with Dolby Atmos, Sound bar speaker for TV, Black Only TrueSpace elevates it all. Dolby Atmos is great for elevating the sound experience of certain movies and TV. But most content isn’t Atmos-encoded. For full immersion all the time, there’s Bose TrueSpace technology. No matter what you’re watching, TrueSpace intelligently analyzes signals other than Dolby Atmos, like stereo or 5.1, and up-mixes them to create an immersive multi-channel sound experience. Instruments, dialogue, and effects are separated, then placed around the room. A.I. Dialogue Mode automatically balances voice and surround sound for ultra-crisp vocal clarity, so you hear every word without sacrificing immersive elements. Big-time tech for a small soundbar. It wouldn’t be a Bose soundbar if it weren’t packed full of technology. The acoustic architecture of Soundbar 550 squeezes five transducers — including two that fire upward — into its compact frame. They all work together to spread sound around your room: horizontally left, right, and forward, but most importantly above to reflect off the ceiling Streaming. Any way you want. If you can get it on your phone, you can hear it through the Bose Soundbar 550. And no matter what you stream, it all sounds deep and rich. Connect to Wi-Fi to access integrated music services and internet radio stations through the app. Or stream songs and video with Bluetooth, Apple AirPlay 2, Spotify Connect, or Chromecast built-in. It’s your entertainment — you choose how you stream it |

One trick, I was able to get the subwoofer working with a generic adapter to work with any subwoofer. Use a summing 3.5mm to RCA mono adapter. I used this one:

I think similar adapters should work. The app shows a Bass Module 700 detected and it's worked for several days now.
Edit:
There are similar adapters available around but just make sure it's a 3.5 stereo to rca.
Also, not sure how people aren't seeing bass from these units. It's painful to the ear how loud it gets with decent adult hearing at max volume and the bass is enough to shake the stand feel the couch slightly shake.

I finally bought the hisense deal (The $89 one) and somehow that is better than bose 550. Yes I know the specs are better in bose but could not get it working.
The sound had to be 30-40 to hear anything.
The sound started with a 1 sec lag on music/dialooge etc
Having said, that every review I read has been excellent but alas had to return the bose soundbar
I was wondering if we can connect some other subwoofers instead to this to boost bass
The TV that it's hooked up to is a S90D

I was worried because in the past bose products only worked with the provided RF (not IR) remotes and if you lost it or wanted a universal remote it required RF capability.
You still need the RF remote for certain functions (like reprogramming the wifi) but otherwise it has an app for most functions
