Super cool looking subwoofer that packs a punch. Must be combined with the W&B soundbar though. And managing the config of the soundbar and the woofer is done thru the B&W app. However, that part is straight forward. Only negative is the price of B&W products. I bought both the soundbar and woofer as returned, open box items to save hundreds of dollars. Very competitive products at a discount but not at full price.

Bowers and Wilkins has created a wireless mesh system for the audiophiles. The clarity and sound quality is unparalleled and equitable to the system in my 2019 BMW 750i. I highly recommend acquiring the necessities for a truly immersive experience for full joy fulfillment. Anything less will keep you wanting for more. Though I recommend budgeting your acquisitions as they are not cheap! I have formation bars, basses, and flex speakers in my living room and bedroom. I will be acquiring the Wedge for my Office and Dining Room. My large house will become an immersive Music Box. Quality will be remembered, long after Price is forgotten! (Gucci, 1938)

Absolutely epic speakers. Infuriatingly glitchy app interface. It is truly shocking and disappointing that Bowers would release this incredible lineup of speakers with an app this unreliable. Set up is clunky and that’s the highlight of the interface. Once you’re up and running, if you ever get there you’ll want to prepare yourself for perpetual speed bumps. Sometimes the sub engages with the sound bar and sometimes it decides it wants to stay asleep. Switching a speaker from Bluetooth to WiFi requires you “reset” the speaker through the app, which is like taking a 5 minute recess from recess. And if you don’t do a reset after connecting via Bluetooth the speaker will simply remain “on” for all perpetuity, which is nice. Of course this is assuming you can connect to ... MoreAbsolutely epic speakers. Infuriatingly glitchy app interface.

As superior as these speakers are to something like Sonos I’m offended that Bowers would have the audacity to charge the kind of money they’re peddling these things for knowing full well how embarrassingly unreliable this interface is. My mind is blown.

Disappointing $1000 purchase.Family decided to watch Obi one and this sub disconnected and would not sync up with formation sound bar. And it’s not the first time we have been disappointed. Look for other options.. B&W is disappointing for the money.Klipsch or martin Logan are better options.
Essential addition to the Formation Sound bar. It really takes the sound to the next level. Love the option to turn it up or down in the app. Watching regular TV I turn it down. Movies its FULL BLAST! I did not have any issues with setup with the app.
I initially bought just the wedge, then felt the need for sub. This does not disappoint, makes my def tech system sound ordinary . I have it in my living room , quite large with high ceilings and this fills that space perfectly. I tried to move the sub once unplugging power and relocating, it stopped working. I have to factory reset both wedge and bass to get it working. It's as simple as two clicks to do that and it works flawlessly again. I can see how it could be frstrating if u did not know how to fix it.
I own ALL the formation products. This bass packs a proper punch. Works excellent paired w the Duo's for low end support for 2 channel stereo and perfect for the 5.1 when setup with the Bar and Flex's for surrpund sound. Owned 2 years now and zero complaints or issues. I own 2 of these.
Poor base quality. I expected a movie theater experience. The Sonos subwoofer is much better. I can actually feel the base when watching movies and listening to music. I regret purchasing this subwoofer and the sound bar. It was much more expensive and doesn’t have the same high quality sound as the Sonos. That app is not as user friendly or multi functional either.
I bought a new Sony TV and Formation Soundbar together and pondered whether to but the Bass. As soon as the soundbar was installed I decided to take the plunge and I am so glad I did. The ease of setting up and the quality of the sound are stunning. You don't really get what it is doing until you approach the unit and see the end speaker diaphragms moving. If you turn of the bass then you notice the difference - not that the soundbar quality isn't superb by itself but it just gives the icing on the cake. Would I recommend it - absolutely.
I got a formation wedge and love it but it definitely has some missing lows. I thought this would solve it, but man I got this bass added and it is SUPER weak. I have my bass at +12 db maxed out in the app and it is the low end of the SVS subs i use. I barely can hear my sub and sometimes have to put a hand near it to make sure it works/is even working. Is this normal for everyone else? The bass is tight because it doesn't have any oomph...no store near me has anymore in stock nor are any stores open for me to check if mine is just bad...or is this how they built it. I wish i could put a regular sub with my formation wedge. the next 30 days I will have to decide to maybe just go with bookshelves. Wanted to save space but the lack of options with the formation series ... MoreI got a formation wedge and love it but it definitely has some missing lows.
