Recently we covered a discount on Edifier's R1280DB bookshelf speakers. These are great for near-field listening, and if you are not willing to spend around $130, this is an excellent choice. Check it out in this dedicated article where you can find its details and purchase link.
Since it is a 2.0 speaker set, one of our long-time readers inquired if they could add a subwoofer to the mix. The reason is that some people love bass, especially when it's deep; I personally enjoy it a lot myself too.

There are many such products in the market which lack a dedicated bass-producing unit, including several models from Bose. That is where the Bose Bass Module 500 comes in. The unit comes with a 10-inch driver and is compatible with several of Bose's soundbar models. These are:
- Bose Smart Ultra Soundbar
- Bose Smart Soundbar 600
- Bose Smart Soundbar 900
- Bose Smart Soundbar 300
- Bose TV Speaker
- Bose Smart Soundbar 700
- Bose Soundbar 500
- SoundTouch 300 soundbar
While Bose does not mention details regarding specifications like power and frequency response, the company claims that it produces "sound you can feel" which typically implies the subwoofer can deliver deep, sub-bass around 80 Hz and below. Bose says the module features QuietPort technology, which is essentially meant to imply that bass reflex port distortions like port chuffing and other such port noises should be greatly reduced.
