    While it does add more crisp sound than tv speakers, it wasn’t loud enough for me.

    The sound difference is amazing. Easy set up, but missing the info on changing your TV settings to coordinate. Doesn't work well with news and talk, with an echo. Great for streaming services/movies and music. Love the ability to use Wi-Fi with it.

    I was unimpressed by this sound bar. We bought it because Bose has always been our preferred brand for sound but this speaker didn’t cut it. It may be better used in a bedroom or tv room but the sound just wasn’t enough for our living room (and we have a fairly small home). We ended up buying the Samsung sound bar with bass. We’re happier with the Samsung.

    Im a bit disappointed in this one. I have 3 other bose speakers and love them all.. but this one is a bit lack luster. It sounds fine, but i feel like its missing some depth. Will probably replace with a better one once i dive into some product reviews

    It's proving to be very fussy with HDMI-ARC and refuses to turn on and reconnect prompt.
