Reviews for Bose SoundLink Air Digital Music System

After very little use and with constant gentle handling, the Bose Sound Link suddenly stopped working, wouldn't, charge or turn on. Bose Customer Service diagnosed the problem over the phone: it's the battery. They were sure this would do it. They shipped me a new battery (under warranty) but this does not solve the problem. The next step will be for me to send them the whole unit at the cost to me of about $15. What they send me back may, of course, also not work. I am not impressed.

This lil piece of equipment is perfect.. The issues mentioned in the other reviews can mostly b resolved by simply restarting itunes . The connectivity is brilliant and so is the sound. Incase of any connectivity issues, Bose has provided an aux port for added convenience. Just wish the battery pack was included in the price as well.

It's incredible that they sell this kind of stuff.
It never stays configurated and after using it one time, the link between computer and sound system is broken. It doesn't show up again in your computer and you need to configure it again by installing it AGAIN. It's a total time and money waste.

We got the Soundlink Air forxmas. Set up instructions were clear an process was simple. It worked for about 2 hours. Then the drop out problems started. Now we cannot even establish the wifi link, iTunes cannot select the Soundlink Air device and the AirPlay button is non existent on my iphone 4. First Bose product, also my last. Sorry, but will be returning the product. Very disappointed when you pay a lot of money for something that doesn't deliver.

I've never had to turn this thing past about 3/4 of the volume, and the sound quality is reflected in the price; it is superb.

I want to write this speaker the best review possible, but something is holding me back. The setup, although very simple (takes a few mins) has some faults. After setting it up, it pays music perfectly. But after turning it off, the speaker cannot seem to find the wifi when I want to use it again. I have to go through the whole setup process again. Hopefully, Bose can give an update to fix this problem, considering that it came onto the market fairly recently.

The speaker is great, but always having to re-establish the wifi connection is very frustrating.

I replaced a portable sound dock with this one after the docking pins on the portable were damaged. This wifi version works pretty good. The sound is very good (good highs, good lows, clean, crisp sound). I've had no trouble streaming the music in sync with this unit, another wireless connection and the iMac at the same time, over the wifi in my house. My only frustration has been that sometimes, less than 10% of the time, the wifi connection breaks up - sounding like a radio station that's not quite tuned. I'm not sure why because it happens for no apparent reason and that's a little disappointing. But, it hasn't been bad enough to complain or take it back and I love that it works wirelessly and can be controlled from my ipod, iMac and iPhone.

El sonido es muy bueno y de alta calidad. Muy costoso. En Colombia aún no tenemos distribución directa de Apple o de Bosé. Algunas veces falla la conexión.

The sound is very good and of high quality. Very expensive. In Colombia we do not have direct distribution for Bosé or Apple. Sometimes the connection fails.

Works great, easy setup, like the fact that you can get software updates wirelessly.

The sound from this speaker was great...when it worked.

Didn't really get to experience it to its fullest as the airplay connection would randomly start crackling or the sound would disappear then reappear again, in and out for 30 seconds at a time, often throwing me off wifi and causing me to have to reboot my router.

Bose support had a long list of 'troubleshooting' tips to try and I spent 1.5 hrs on the phone to them trying to sort it out, changing ports on the router and so on, but to no avail. Had to return it :(

Bose sound is definitely one of the strongest for small speakers. This product touts it's ability to play in multiple rooms at once, but neither iTunes nor the iPhone (iOS 6) are capable of streaming music to multiple WiFi speakers at once without a third party device.
