The Bose Smart Ultra soundbar with Dolby Atmos and Bose TrueSpace technology separates instruments, dialogue and effects and distributes them to different areas of a room to give you a truly immersive and spatial audio experience - you've never heard it like this before. Do you sometimes have trouble understanding the dialogue of film characters? Dialogue Mode with AI automatically balances voices and surround sound to achieve particularly clear speech reproduction. Two upward-firing dipole speakers and Bose technologies also give you the feeling that the sound is coming from all directions - even from above.
