To better support our new Sony 4K 930E TV and Sony UBPX800 4K Blu-Ray Player we have decided to move to a Sony HTST5000 Soundbar. Our Bose 130 has been a wonderful, entertaining soundbar. It will go to our son and his family. Who knows, I may drop in from time to time. Thanks to everyone for your helpful commentary. Best regards, Louis

New DirecTV 4KDVR, 4K HDR TV & 4K Blu-Ray Player arriving next week. Since the 130 does not support 4K HDR my plan is to run all HDMI's to the television then an Optical cable will connet the TV to the 130. No HDMI's will be connected to the 130.. I assume the 130's audio output will be 5.1. Is my plan good and my assumption regarding the 130 only outputing 5.1 correct?

Will casually speaking to the best AV salesperson at our local Best Buy I was told incident after incident where the Best Buy sales staff helped or attempted to help SoundTouch 300 owners with various issues. Sure was a turn off. At least if the Salesperson could not help the customer was referred to Bose Support.

Yes, the remote control code for Directv is 1988. Follow all instructions for programing your Bose Remote Control. For future reference here is code list for all devices that can be controlled by Bose remotes. https://assets.bose.com/content/dam/Bose_DAM/Web/consumer_electronics/global/products/speakers/bose_solo_5_fr/pdf/solo_5_PDF_remote_codes.pdf

Running my 130 strictly per Adaptiq settings. Something I’ve never actually done. With that said should all audio including the bass sound like it is coming the screen? You would think I had all aspects of my 130 figured out by now.

Helping my son-in-law set up his new ST300. I know the recommended connection method is through the TV's ARC yet theorically when using a Harmony Remote it seems it would be much simpler to run all components through a HDMI switch. Comments please.

Thank you for pointing out my oversight Brandon. When paired with a 4K television our 130 would output, as you stated, only Dolby Digital and standard DTS, along with Uncompressed PCM 5.1. A optical cable would bring audio from the 4K television to the 130. A HDMI would provide video to the 4K television from our DirecTV 4K complient DVR. I regret not responding earlier. For some unknown techical reseason I cannot sign on to the Bose Community from our Apple iPad Air.

Thanks for the info regarding 4K audio. My understanding is that my 130 would process DD audio but not advanced 4K audio. Please correct me if I am misinformed.

Is it a safe move to purchase a refurbhised ST 300 from a Bose Factory Story? Do they carry a full warranty and possibe extended warranty? Is there a significant price discount?

I must admit we love our Bose SoundTouch 130. It's tweaked to perfection, bass, vocals, all. Now there is the 300. First thing for you to know is that we are not interested in shaking the windows with the 300's powerful sub. It's clear, concise bass would obviously be an advantage. I've been told a number of time audio for the 300's soundbar is not much different than from the 130. With all this said, is it worth the expense to replace our 130 to the 300?

After intial research it does not seem Bose will introduce new soundbars in 2018. Sure hope I am wrong.

Had a so called AV expert over to look at our TV and Bose. The TV and soundbar sit on top of a media stand. I told him all about the Bose especially the Adaptiq feature. So after seeing my 130 Soundbar’s placement he said that it should be moved to the front edge of our media stand. His reasoning was that with the soundbar positioned back the sound bounces off of the flat top thereby lessening projection. According to Bose, what is the best position for our 130’s Soundbar?

I updated our 130 via iTunes app. My module was updated yet I cannot locate what the update actually changed/added to our 130. What was changed or added to our 130? Now a question, my 130's module is connected to the web via WI-FI so why doesn't it update? Thanks

James, After running Adaptiq I increase bass and front. These adjustments seem to enhance overall audio. Considering I wear hearing aids to compensate for the loss of high frequencies. Rather silly of me to have mentioned the always variable volume. Any comments?
