Wall-to-wall stereo sound from a single speaker
Inside the Bose Home Speaker 500, two custom drivers point in opposite directions to bounce sound off the walls. The result? A soundstage wider than any other smart speaker, powerful enough to fill any room with an astonishing stereo performance.
Built-in voice control
Play. Pause. Shuffle. Or skip to your favourite song. You’ll have millions of playlists, albums and more at the tip of your tongue. With Google Assistant and Alexa built-in, you can control your music, get information, manage your day and so much more.* And with Alexa only, you can even make or take calls to Bose smart products, Amazon Echo products and anyone in your contacts list—hands free, phone free and free of charge.***Voice services (Amazon Alexa, Google Assistant) may vary and may not be available in all languages and countries.
**Call feature is only available with Alexa. To call products, both parties must set up this feature and must be on Wi-Fi.
Superior voice pickup
Turning the music up at a party? It’s not a problem for our voice pickup technology. Just under the surface is a custom-designed eight-microphone array, so the speaker still hears you, even when it gets loud. You can turn off voice access whenever you want, too. Just tap the mic-disable button to cut power to all microphones, and continue to access the other features of the speaker.Control comes easy
Control doesn’t stop at just voice. You can tap the top controls to play, pause or skip tracks, or manage it all from the Bose Music app. And you can set up to six different presets for playlists, Internet radio stations and more, so your favorites are just a tap away.
Music. Any way you want it.
When it comes to what you want to hear, you have so many options. With Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Chromecast built-in and Apple AirPlay 2 compatibility, play integrated music services, like Spotify®, Amazon Music or Pandora, or play anything from your mobile devices. If you can get it on your devices, you can hear it on the Bose Smart Speaker 500. Music services may vary.
Take control of your listening experience
With the Bose Music app, you can easily browse through all your music in one place and seamlessly jump between stations, playlists, and services. Plus, it’s another simple way to control the Bose Smart Speaker 500. Setting up presets with the app is easy, so the music you love is just one touch away. And multiple users can personalize their experience and content.
Premium design, inside and out
The Smart Speaker 500 looks as good as it sounds. A seamless, anodized aluminum body gives the speaker a refined finish that’s perfect for any room.
