Insignia 2.0 sound Bar.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It is not as loud as the TV speakers. I really do not use it much. Next time I will get a more powerful unit.

key items not included
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The package did not include a mounting mechanism or the proper connecting cables (although the latter were listed as included)
No, I would not recommend this to a friendGreat Amplifier
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The mini sound bar with digital amplifier is fantastic. It really makes the volume more directly so I can now enjoy my television more.
I would recommend this to a friendWanted it to work...
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I had a good feeling about this little soundbar. But I'm sad to say, it disappointed me. There was so much static, I couldn't even stand to use it for more than a couple minutes. Had to return.

Don't Buy
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This speaker was a rip off. When streaming a show/movie, the volume on the speaker was so low that we had to turn on the tv speakers as well. Used for a month before throwing away.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendNot very good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The price seemed good but when I set it up the sound was poor... my advise is to pay the extra money and get a Samsung soundbar.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendnot powerful enough
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.not powerful enough; i returned it for a bigger more powerful one [almost the same price, too]. this one is light, though - can attach to bottom of TV with velcro - great for the right room
I would recommend this to a friendSo so at best
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.A great example of getting what you pay for- for the price it gets the job done but I would recommend investing in a higher quality product. We returned the speaker we purchased.
No, I would not recommend this to a friendSound cuts out
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.We tried for a month to see why the sound kept cutting out. Not our 3 month old TV for sure. Even tried the booster adapter nope. So it went back We got a Bose no problem now
No, I would not recommend this to a friendno cable
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I bought an out of the box bar - and it said nothing was missing - However, I returned it because it was missing an important cable - and it was not worth it -
No, I would not recommend this to a friend- Pros mentioned:Ease of use, Size, Sound quality
Greast Little Speaker
Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My flat screen TV has lousy Sound so I needed an auxiliary speaker. This little unit was very easy to install in less than 5 minutes. I used the Digital Optical connection. The remote responds very well. The sound is great for a tv that runs all day for background noise. The speaker is small enough to set in front of the tv. The sound is not concert quality but more than sufficient for what ever is on playing. And it was on sale for about half price.
I would recommend this to a friend My first soundbar - works great!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Although this was an "open box" purchase, it arrived intact and in perfect condition, and so far works very well
I would recommend this to a friendGet what you paid for
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Speakers are already blown an when it did work(I think for one day) the sound quality wasn't very good. I'm not angry or bitter because I expected it to happen.
No, I would not recommend this to a frienddidn't work
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.i was so happy to find a very small one and so sad that it did nothing not even a peep so i had to take it back i did not try a another so that's that
No, I would not recommend this to a friendPoor Quality
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This very inexpensive soundbar was completely ineffective in improving and amplifying sound. I ended up returning it for a better soundbar.

Broke
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought this for my son as a gift and it stopped working after a couple days. I gave him the receipt to return it and of coarse best buy would only give store credit.

Posted .Hi.
I'm sorry that this sound bar did not fulfilled your expectations. Allow me to comment that this is our most basic sound bar, we have much more advanced ones like our model NS-HSB318. You might want to try it.
