“Is volume controlled by TV or by a separate remote? I've read mixed reviews where some state the TV remote alone controls the volume and other state you need to have a separate remote to control the volume on the Insignia. Could it be a problem of improper connections for some users or are some TVs not quite compatible? Please clarify.”

• It has its own remote. I happen to like that feature as I can turn on the TV and have the sound set pretty low until I activate the sound bar. I've never considered pairing it with anything or changing the set up because it's my preference, but there seems to be an answer to everything on YouTube, and the clerks in Best Buy should be able to help with that if it's a problem for you to have yet another remote to keep track of.

• For this product, the TV remote controls only the TV volume. You would use the TV remote to turn the TV volume to 0, then use the soundbar remote to control the soundbar volume. If you try to use both at once, you get a reverb/delay effect which may be nice for music, but is really annoying for TV.

• I use both the remote that came with the soundbar and my comcast remote. Comcast actually programmed their remote to the soundbar when I got my TV installed. It's the best way in case you're too lazy to get up and get the soundbar remote.

• It has it's own remote. If you have a universal remote you can program that to work the speakers. You need to turn off the speakers on your TV or you will get an echo effect.
