Works good for what we use it for
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Replaced our kitchen TV and decided to add a small sound bar. After reviewing decided to give this one a try. The Bluetooth feature is a huge plus. Doesn't have the sound range as my Bose systems but dollar for dollar you can't go wrong with this little unit for the sound it puts out while watching the news in the morning.

Not bad for a small space and small tv
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to install, sound is decent, although on a few channels it still is barely audible over my treadmill, which is why I bought it. Still better than the sound coming from the tv, though. Tried it on my larger tv in the living room, didn't like the sound, but fine with the smaller tv in a smaller room.

Improves tv sound and bluetooth too!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I connected the Insignia 2.0 mini sound bar to the cable box on top of the cabinets to give some additional sound to the kitchen setup so that I can hear when we have gatherings, as the kitchen island ends up being the buffet during game days. The tv is a 19" insignia mounted below the cabinets on a fold up mount. The sound bar would not hook up with the optical cable ( & cable box) with the hdmi connected to the cable box so I used the rca cable and it sounds great. The bluetooth was a snap to hook up to , and gives me additional sound options while I am washing dishes. This was a great buy when on sale and has great options for hook ups.

Great for the money and compact size
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The speakers on the tv were beginning to buzz and being on the rear of the tv were load in an adjoining room. The Insignia sound bar being of a compact size fits between the tv foot stands just fine. The sound bar has very good sound for its size and the options are great.

Perfect for a bedroom
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.For the money, you can't go wrong with this little bar, especially for a small space. The new TV I bought has horrible speakers so I got this to try it out. It's for a small bedroom, no complaints at all, way better than the TV speakers. It's cheap, it's small and it does what I wanted it to do.

Pretty Descent Speaker
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this soundbar after the holidaya because it was a great deal. Though I would not use it as a living room surround sound. it does come in handy. I use it mostly for computer speakers and also the bluetooth capability . The sound is good a little distorted at higher volumes but no surprise there.

Better Than I'd Hoped
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.My 24" Vizio Smart TV in the master bathroom has a great picture and looks great, too. However, its sound was really lacking and especially when listening to Pandora. I started looking for a sound bar that I could hang under the TV to improve things. Finding this product at such a low price I was skeptical. I bought it half expecting to return it. Much to my delight, it works great. The 1/8 phone plug made connecting fast and easy. I love how it stays on stand-by so when the TV turns on, it does too. The sound quality is better than I would have expected for the price. All in all, I'm very happy with the unit. The only reason for 4 instead of 5 stars is that I wish that mounting brackets could have been included in the box like on the higher-priced version and much longer version of the product. I would have gladly paid a little more to have them on-hand instead of having to buy them separately from Amazon.

Low cost, and OK
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Needed a small unit for a tight space for a 4K TV, To aim the audio outward, this seems to do it fine for the price. Pretty easy to set up only now if you turn the TV speakers off, you need to use the sound bar remote..more remotes to loose! Worth the price so far, not much more though.

Great sound bar
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Insignia 2.0 channel soundbar is absolutely great. I needed a small soundbar for our bedroom. The sound is great. There is no subwoofer, but I did not want a subwoofer for the size of our room. The sound quality is clear and not a tinny sound as I thought it might be, given the small size and no subwoofer. I was and remain impressed at my purchase. I have two other soundbars for different size rooms. This is perfect for the size of our bedroom. I told my friend about this soundbar for her bedroom. She bought one the next day and she is very happy she did. Very very happy with this soundbar.

Surprisingly good speaker
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased the speaker for my kids desktop computer. The speaker is placed on the monitor stand, right below the screen. It is powerful enough for their daily usage and sound quality is decent. The footprint is small, does not clutter the desk. I am happy with this purchase.

Good Soundbar for the money
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Nice soundbar for a den or bedroom. Has decent base and an optical input. Not big enough or powerful to use in a large room with large TV. I use it to improve the tinny sound of my off brand 39" den tv. Also can be used as a bluetooth speaker. Remote is also decent.

Using for my Desktop and DirecTV
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Instead of buying a TV, I used this along with my computer monitor that acts as a Monitor or TV depending on the HDMI selector switch. Works great for both. Sound quality is good, I do not use a Subwoofer but it is perfect. Fits under my HP FHD monitors and the remote comes in handy. DirecTV also recognizes the device so I can control the volume using DirecTV remote and I use the remote that comes with the device to control the volume on youtube or anyother videos/music I play on my desktop. Perfect, saved me space for a TV as well as the cost of buying a 32" TV.

Terrific Value for an entry level soundbar
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was pleasantly surprised when I first listened to the mini soundbar from Insignia. While not the depth of sound that audiophiles would want, it provides great value for those looking to upgrade their tv speakers in a smal footprint. And it is priced around $50 so excellent value.

great bang for your buck
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have a couple of these. They are simple for apartment use and do get pretty loud, so you have some options for using these at higher volumes. Downside with Optical is that if there isn't volume coming through the soundbar, then you start something audio doesn't play immediately - there's a 1 second delay which is annoying. Just go with the red/white audio connections and convert to whatever you wish from there (you can do nearly anything from 3.5mm to optical that way). Do NOT use optical setup for this, very annoying.

Great little speaker
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is a fantastic little speaker to connect to a tv in a bedroom, which is what we've done. Insignia really does make some great quality products that cost much less than their competitors. The price for this speaker was awesome! I'm super happy with this purchase.
