Sound Bar

Very nice sound. Doesn’t allow us to get very old. Seems to have a limit to volume.

Worked great for awhile

I bought this in Nov 2015 and it worked flawlessly until about a month ago. Now the sound will increase by itself to 50 (Max). I will turn it down, sometimes it is good for an hour or so other times it immediately turns itself back up. Sometimes I can't turn it down at all and have to turn the sound bar off then back on. I called customer support and they gave me directions on how to permanently fix the problem by unplugging the TV and the sound bar. That worked for a couple hours. After fighting with the sound bar for a couple hours it will function properly. The unit turning itself up to max happens after it has been on for anywhere to say an hour or a couple of hours. It's driving us nuts...

Great sound

Hooked it up as instructed but the SamSung tv picture is now somewhat deteriorated. Not as sharp and background light in shows seems to wash out the picture. Also, using the remote there is a time delay before the sound level changes.

It's okay for a small room, I should've bought the more expensive model. It works off and on... it's okay

COMPUTER CONNECTION

IF YOUR HAVING PROBLEMS USING YOUR SOUND BAR WITH YOUR COMPUTER.THEN DO NOT CONNECT WITH THE HDM1 CABLE BUT PAIR WITH BLUETOOTH IT WORKS FINE THEN AND THE DRIVER DOES NOT GET KNOCKED OUT AND YOU END UP WITH NO SOUND OR PICTURE.

Very good

Bought to replace a JVC which was quite frankly, not all that good. Transformation in sound and ease of use and no more waiting for the soundbar to find everything connected to it.

Great sound!

I bought it alongise a new tv a month ago and I couldn't be happier with the purchase. Comparing the sound between the tv alone and the bar connected to the tv shows how big of a difference the bar makes.

Surprisingly powerful bass

I sold away my sonos soundbar and gotten this. I was amazed with the powerful bass and it was not expensive compared to a sonos. Easy to set up and it served very well for its price.

Good Spatial Sound

Good sound enhancement for LCD/LED TV. Bass and spatial effect is good for small room. Multiple inputs and connectivity ranging from HDMI, Optical, Bluetooth, NFC, USB and standard AUX. Sleek design if on the table but not suitable to be mounted on the wall because make it look big.

Decent Sounding

Decent sounding sound bar for the price. Coming from a full av amp setup for decades since dolby pro-logic amps and host of speakers later years decide to go for simplicity. Wireless subwoofer is a plus point no messy wires.
