Product discription:

Any room is filled to capacity with sound from the Bose 500 home speaker. To create a soundscape broader than any other smart speaker, two unique drivers mounted within the speaker aim in opposing directions to reflect sound off the walls. You can enjoy millions of music, Internet radio stations, playlists, and more hands-free thanks to built-in voice assistants like Alexa and the Google Assistant. Saying the words is all that is necessary to activate the music. The Bose home speaker 500 can still hear you even when the artist is performing loudly. A specially created eight-microphone array is located just below the top for the best voice pickup.

However, control extends beyond voice alone - Use the top controls to start and pause the music, or use the Bose music app to control everything. There are several possibilities when it comes to hearing what you want to hear. Play your preferred music services, including Spotify, music, or Apple Music, or anything from your phone or tablet with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, and Apple Airplay 2 support. Up to six distinct presets may be created for playlists, Internet radio stations, and other things. Additionally, the colour LCD display will show you the current song, station, playlist information, album art, and other information about what is playing.
