You’ve been waiting all season for this match and counting the minutes until your team jogs onto the field to join the roar of the home crowd. You don’t want to miss a single thing tonight – the goalkeeper’s incredible save, the satisfyingly smooth pass between a midfielder and centre forward, or the referee’s poorly judged yellow card (and perhaps even the fans’ boos).
So how do you know if your home audio experience is ready to take you from the opening kick-off to the final whistle? Here are several tips for optimising the sound of sports in your match-day audio experience, as well as some product recommendations to ensure that you’ll spend both halves feeling like you’re right there in the stadium.
Picture this: you, comfortably settled in your living room, but the stadium atmosphere surrounds you entirely. Whether you’re the dedicated fan who watches every match from across the country or the local supporter who couldn’t secure a ticket this time, your match-day experience is about to get a major upgrade. The cheers, the tension, the very heartbeat of the match will surge around you in three dimensions, bringing you closer to the action than ever before.

That’s what you get with the Bose Smart Ultra Soundbar. Powered by Dolby Atmos® technology, this soundbar catapults sound in all directions, using ‘object-based audio’ to dissect distinct sounds from the mix. This means you can hear the roar of the crowd and the crisp commentary in a way that could only get more realistic if you were standing on the sidelines.
The Smart Ultra Soundbar boasts nine precisely positioned speakers within its sleek frame, recreating a soundscape once achievable only through ceiling installations. Yet this immersive encounter isn’t confined to sports; Bose’s cutting-edge tech discerns every element of your content – dialogue, ambient sounds, even the soundtrack – and situates them throughout the room. Even without Dolby Atmos, Bose PhaseGuide technology guarantees a comparably immersive experience.
If you’re unsure of where to place your Bose soundbar, don’t worry – Bose has you covered. Once you’ve set it up, along with any additional surround sound speakers or bass modules, you can utilise the in-built ADAPTiQ audio calibration for optimal performance.
ADAPTiQ audio calibration takes five separate audio measurements using the built-in microphone on the accompanying headset. It then uses the data to customise your soundbar and any connected speakers to match the unique acoustics of your space. It just takes 10 minutes to set up, and you won’t need to repeat the ADAPTiQ audio calibration unless you change the speaker placement or rearrange your furniture.

Bose SoundLink speakers only weigh about half a kilo, so it’s easy to move them from room to room or switch from one connected device to the other. That means that after the final whistle blows, you can quickly play some victory music or whatever tracks make you feel slightly better after a last-minute defeat. There’s even a built-in microphone for phone calls in case your co-worker calls to congratulate you on that big win.
