Sub does not produce bass

This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
Everything is connected correctly. The problem is that the wireless sub does not receive enough output to create any bass. So, there is no volume of sound or bass that you will receive from the sub. None. I have the volume all the way up and right next to the soundbar and still just a faint something comes from it when my ear is pressed next to it. It simply does not provide sound that you can hear from a foot away. There are no connection problems and I verified all connection status lights are transmitting. Also, the sub speaker is made from a very cheap Styrofoam and cardboard cone. The soundbar itself does not produce a very clear sound even when using the optical line. Looks nice but has low quality sound.

I like the speaker bar better than surround sound. Much easier to set up. The sound adjustment did not program with my Panasonic plasma tv remote but when I called Energy customer service, they were great and helped me do a work around with another remote and my cable box remote. I am glad I purchased the speaker. The sound is better than the tv speakers but I don't understand why it is so expensive. Although I don't have any other experience with others.

I have a problem with the tv remote programing. Tried several times and can't get the up down volume to work correctly. I can get the volume to increase but not to decrease.

The good and the bad

The Good - Music sounds surprisingly good on the Energy Power Bar. The wireless subwoofer is compact, and the sound bar itself is easy to wall-mount with keyhole slots on the back.
The Bad - The Power Bar sounds underwhelming when it comes to movies, especially for the price. You're also required to use your TV's remote to control the Power Bar, which can be problematic with some TVs.

We have a Vizio 70 inch TV in a very large family room that was very difficult to understand the dialogue from the TV speakers only. We purchased this sound bar through the Best Buy Deal of the Day. The improvement in sound quality and clarity is impressive.

I was looking for better sound for my samsung tv. The reviews were good for this sound bar and I agree. It was super easy to set up and automatically worked with my samsung tv remote. For the price I'd say this was definitely worth it

This sound bar was extremely easy to set up. My husband didn't have any trouble getting our universal remote to work w/it. The only "complaint" that I have is that it won't totally mute. You must just turn it completely down. I really isn't that big of an issue, I just don't like loud commercials.

This could easily be a flawless review, but there's no remote for this sound bar. This product was recommended to me by the Best Buy staff, and everything that they highlighted has turned out to be true. The fact that there's no remote is kind of a big deal to me and also a nuisance. Since this is strictly my personal opinion, I would still recommend this product to others with the warning that there's no remote.

Unfortunately, if you want a flat screen you must accept an inferior build in sound system. The energy power bar is a great sound system. It's wireless and so is the woofer powerful enough to vibrate the windows.

Sound quality is very good for the price of this sound bar. The sound is great from our Blu Ray Player. It does not work with all of our devices though. Part of the problem is that our television does not have an output for sound. The other problem is the connection with apple tv. Sometimes the sound works (like Huluplus), and sometimes it does not (like Netflix).

While disappointed that the original sound bar we purchased with our system died after just over 1 year (no service plan unfortunately), this is an adequate replacement even though smaller. The price was right and now I have a service plan.

Bought this unit on a deal of the day promo - great price for a good product. Way better than TV sound. Energy is a quality brand. Would recommend this unit to a friend.
