I can get this for £180. I wanted a sound bar but I thought this might be better than comparable ones at that price?

I'm not overly fussed about surround sound but would like to notably improve the built in TV speakers (which are pretty generic and not great).

I know there are mixed opinions on Bose but I've always thought they are fairly good.

Anyone got/had one?

You mean universally panned on all pro-audio sites ;)

Not that they sound terrible, always, but they are overpriced for what they are, always.
 
I never go on pro audio sites so I wouldn't know. :p

I should add the most likely alternative is something like the Yamaha YAS-101.

I might give it a miss then... :p

To anyone who might know, how would it compare to the YAS-101? The Solo costs almost/over twice as much (but I wouldn't be paying that), could it be better, despite being Bose?

The answers no. I think in a blind test you'd pick the Yamaha.
