There's a reason Bose sold so many 601s. That reason is not because they are hi-fi. Rather, it's because they don't sound objectionable in any room. When I put my 40+ year 601s up for sale a few years ago, I was over-whelmed with responses. I sold them for the price I paid. Just look at the reviews in the link below.

I am sure their soundbar and sub is no different particularly given the tech and IP they've packed in there.
