Deal Details
Walmart has Bose Smart Soundbar 550 w/ Dolby Atmos for $199. Shipping is free, otherwise free store pickup is available where stock permits.

Note: Availability for pickup may vary by location.

Thanks to Deal Hunter Eragorn for finding this deal.

Features:
  • 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

I was skeptical but this sounds great. Always been a big fan of Bose QC series and lately they hit out of the park with the QC Ultra headphones and earphones. Very skeptical of their speaker solutions but for its size, it really hits above its weight and size. Expansive sounding and reliable.

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:

https://www.amazon.com/dp/B014X11Q0Y

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.
Please for the love of god, go buy this one. Got this two weeks ago and loving it so far.
I purchased it at the same price and tried for a few days before returning today. My main need was to improve dialogue clarity over my S90D speakers. They were great for that, but lacked absolutely any type of bass. I had also bought Yamaha 1090 for 1/3rd the price. Yamaha had better bass than Bose and was a tad bit worse in dialogue clarity. For me, the improvement in dialogue clarity with Bose wasn't worth the price difference. I ordered another Yamaha for my LG C8. Will wait to spend more for a much better system later. I didn't find Bose to be a good value for my purpose.

to anyone who's still wondering what you need to add a third party subwoofer to this soundbar, here it is:

3.5mm stereo male to RCA female adapter: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000LRNJ32

RCA male to RCA male cable: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0184PIVDU

connect your sub to the soundbar and it will be added to the Bose app as a Bose Module 700

Anyone having issues with their 3rd party subwoofer being undetected after powering on about 10 seconds in?
