Good little speaker
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a good, but not great little speaker - does what I want it to do, which is to boost the standard speakers on a small TV. Excellent price for the quality.

Simple upgrade from HDTV built-in speakers
||Posted . Owned for 11 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Pros : Decent sound for how small the device is compared to most other soundbars. Convenient size makes it easy to fit around most setups. Included RCA cables is nice. CON : Works perfect UNLESS you use the optical port. Anytime there is a quiet moment from a source the sound will cut OFF until the next sound if loud enough. Which means certain things like in a menu system the sound will be constantly going on and off. Very annoying when dealing with quiet moments in movies and video games. Since my latest HDTV can only receive optical or hdmi audio I can no longer use this soundbar so be sure your set can use the RCA ports. Tested the issue with the soundbar connected to the tv and also tried direct ps4 pro to soundbar. Same sound cutoff issue happens. Also tested with 2 different optical cables.

Excellent product
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I didn't want a huge sound bar, nor pay a lot of money for one, so this fits the bill. It keeps a low profile on my tv stand and works very well. When I play music off my laptop, the sound bar connects via bluetooth w/o any issue, and first set-up was very easy. Very happy I bought this product.

Great Sound Bar for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was looking for a sound bar for my new SMART TV, but did not want to spend a lot of money on it. I was looking at another model but saw this one as I was heading to checkout. I am in a small basement area and this one works wonderfully and was half the price of the one Inwasngojng to buy. I have had no issues and it brings the TV to life. I would highly recommend!

Packed with Power
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was skeptical of this little soundbar. But I have to tell you that it was very surprising. It not only met my needs, it surpassed it that I bought more. I use them as my small office tv speaker. And another one for my small tv in the kitchen. It is louder than loud. Totally recommend it. Can't beat the price either. And the other cool part, it comes with a remote.

Great Soundbar
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this soundbar. I love it so much I bought a second one. I wish it cam with the cables I needed to hook it up to my TV's but I was able to get the optical cables online. I paired my cell phone with both soundbars so I can play music. Its great for the price. I wanted one but I wasn't going to spend over $100 for one so when this one went on sale I had to get it.

Great sound bar
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I love this mini sound bar. It is perfect for the bedroom. My tv is a bit old and the speakers are wearing out so this was a great investment. My tv is about 7-8 year old and doesn’t have the current ports so the speaker is connected by old school audio cables. I’m sure if my tv was newer then it would sound even better. Still, I love this product.

Good for small spaces
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We have a TV on the wall in the kitchen and the speakers are in the back of the TV. We got tired of always having to turn the TV to full volume to be able to hear it so we decided to try a soundbar. We don't have a lot of space on the counter so we were looking for something small and compact that would give us good sound. This fits the bill.

Compact yet Powerful
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this produce and had it shipped to my mother who has difficulty hearing her standard television speakers. She called me to ask about a couple of different ones she saw at a different store, and she had no idea what she needed. The two she noticed were off brands and well over $100. I told her to allow me to research at BestBuy.com before making a decision. I was able to purchase this one at a sale price saving her over $100, and it is more than enough for her bedroom needs. There is not a lot of base but sound is clear at higher volumes.

Small size, amazing sound
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I ordered this sound bar to supplement audio from a new TV. It would do that fine, but it's so compact that I ended up putting the big clunky sound bar from my home office on the TV and using this to augment my laptop audio. It does that very well plus is small enough to pack up and take with me for travel. Very happy with this purchase so far.

Good for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sound is satisfactory for my needs. I needed to attach a sound bar to my 65in TV that's wall mounted. The TV is in an unusual location so I need to extend the TV way out from the wall and swivel it to face the people who are watching. It's a large room and the TV's speaker isn't sufficient so I was looking for an inexpensive sound bar to see if it could be attached to the TV and to see if it was loud enough. The sound bar works fine. I may decide to upgrade in the future but it suffices for now. The real challenge to this project was the mounting kit which I'll review in another post.

For the RV
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We recently bought a 22' RV. Purchased an Insignia 24" tv for it. The TV itself is perfect for the RV, with the exception of the sound. The single speaker on the TV is pretty weak, and coupled with a running RV air conditioner doesn't help. Wanted a small sound bar to project the sound better without adding a lot of bulk to the TV and RV. This little sound bar does the job. Certainly wont win any awards for sound bar of the year, but does the job I needed it to do.

Great for small tv's
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for a friend of mine that has a 32" tv. He loves it. It has a good sound for a small soundbar. It packs a punch for a small size and a small price.

Good for the price
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.If you want an inexpensive sound bar to improve the audio of your HDTV (which usually has speakers on the back or bottom edge) this will do. The sound settings are limited ("news" emphasizing voice, "theater" emphasizing bass, or "standard") but the output is decent. It's also nice to have the bluetooth capability. The lack of a subwoofer makes it poorer sound that more expensive units. Again I would recommend it if budget or location size are factors.
