A:AnswerFor the price, this system will rock. My room I use the sound bar in is 12 x 16, and I have to adjust the bass. The bar has tingy highs and the added center channel weak add voice clarity. If you want more front end sound, there are optional wireless Samsung satellite speakers that pair with this system. Keep in mind that sound bar placement plays a major role in the acoustics your trying to achieve within your media space.
A:AnswerI found the HDMI connection the most practical as it allows me to control the sound from my TV remote controller. As for sound quality, I did not notice any difference between HDMI and optical (I tried that, too). The bluetooth is for the woofer and this works great for me.
