I dont undersrand the bad reviews. I have tried every soundbar out there and this thing sounds amazing one of the best . The atmos effects are the best i have ever heard from just a soundbar system. The highs and mids are crystal clear. You can hear every nuanced detail. The dialogue is fantastic. You can always hear what is being said. I would say its even better than the bose ultra bar with AI dialog enabled. Surround effects are great in a small 10’x12’x8’ bedroom. The soundbar sounds huge with dolby atmos content. It sounds good with all content. The bass is good for a all in one bar. Not bass that you can feel more like you can hear it. Its good for a small room. Worth the money!!

It's good for what it's designed for. It only works through your TV, you can't hook it up directly to your bluray player or through your AV receiver. You can only stream music to it, which negates any hi-res music/atmos mixes. Is perfect for someone who only watches tv/streams movies and music. Unfortunately not for the audiophile, which is weird because that's B&W's niche. This could have been more clear in the description, saved some hassle and an open box return.

Not sure why all the hate this new soundbar is getting, but i think it sounds phenomenal. B&W always makes great products, sure this may not have as much bass as the previous Panaromas, but this now has eARC and can support losslees/uncompressed audio through Dolby Atmos/True HD. The clarity is just amazing, and the pricing of this compared to the new zeppelin or their other wireless products, honestly it’s not that bad. Only downside I guess is that you can’t add a sub, but IMO this is best for bedroom setups, not your main larger room home theater setup.

Audio wise great. Smart audio wise not so good. Purchased this to pair with our tv since I didn’t want speakers mounted at the time. I loved that it had the Amazon interface to easily do things. However that quickly changed when it would random start listening and answer questions that never were asked in the first place. I did a complete factory reset and unfortunately this was never able to go away which led to us returning it. Yes I know turn it off. However I explored all the b&w app and wasn’t able to. Loved that it did come with its own wall mounting brackets.

It sounds better with time. It clearly needs break-in time. A high quality product. Looks great and is easy to use.
