The Bose Lifestyle Collection has been revived by the audio brand to offer consumers a number of different ways to enhance their at-home audio experience.
The range incudes three new pieces including a smart speaker, soundbar and a wireless subwoofer called the Ultra Speaker, Ultra Soundbar and Ultra Subwoofer, respectively. The Ultra Speaker is capable of being used independently or with additional units for a stereo experience, while the Ultra Soundbar takes centerstage with the ability to delivery Dolby Atmos performance. Finally, the subwoofer utilizes the CleanBass and QuietPort technology to ensure the low end of any audio experience is optimized.
The Bose Lifestyle Collection is slated to arrive this month with preorders taking place now and prices ranging from $299 to $1,099.
