Customers are saying

Customers are impressed with the 2.0-Channel Soundbar's sound quality, considering it great for the price. They also appreciate its value for money and easy setup. However, some customers have expressed concerns about the volume, wishing for a volume display, and the bass, feeling it doesn't offer much difference from a TV speaker.

    Got this sound bar yesterday. Took a chance buying this since no reviews were available here at BB. From reading reviews at other retail merchants. however, the general impressions were mostly positive. Using HDMI arc, mine was hooked up to my 65" Hisense TV in seconds. The sound was more than satisfying! Truth be told, since there is no bass component to the sound bar, I connected a 12" powered sub woofer to the TV for thunderous bass when needed! Most people would not go to that extreme, but I did and it was more than worth it.

    So far so good, easily connects but at times disconnects and reconnecting does the job.

    I bought this as an early Christmas gift for a tech geek and he now uses it as his main source of audio everyday! The remote makes changing the volume or mode easy and convenient. The sound is well balanced; easily worth what I paid.

    Very easy to set up, good value for the price. Not really any bass component as far as I can tell but I'm mainly using it to extend the sound range on my old flat screen.

    I had to turn the volume to 50 just to hear anything. I thought having a soundbar would allow me to hear the volume at a lower level. Sadly it wasn’t a big upgrade from the tv speakers.

    Overall, this sound bar is meh. Not great, but not terrible. However, in the past few weeks, the bar has started turning off on its own, and you lose the sounds. Would not repurchase this sound bar, and possibly not even this brand again
