Okay for the Sale Price
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have had other sound bars that sound better and have a digital display to make it easier to program. This is very basic and the sound is so-so. I have had another sounder since 2011 with my 3D TV and it blows this one away.

Hard pass, even at a discount its not worth it.
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Sounds kinda ok at best. It came with almost nothing in the box. Box wrapped in security tape almost like its used/open box. The remote has 4 sound options andvonly "theater " is passable . Paired with its sub woofer easily but the sub drops sound or connect at times. Oh and if you dont turn your tv sound down when using an optical cable youll notice a delay , sound seems unsynced to the picture a noticeable amount. Skip this thing if you can afford ANYTHING else.

You get what you pay for
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Got these during Black Friday and they were pretty cheap. It’s a very bare bones system with little to no options. It’s being used in my sister’s room which is good enough but don’t recommend using for your main entertainment system.

You get what you pay for.....
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.When it works right, it's great but sadly that is not often at all. I've had too many issues with this not synching with the Insignia tv (which should be easy considering), the subwoofer either cutting out or not connecting at all, and the sound quality is like you're in a giant tin can. Currently shopping for a different sound bar as I type.

Don’t buy if not on sale
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It’s not the best to be honest it gets the temporary job almost done but I only bought it because it was almost 100 dollars cheaper on Memorial Day. So happy I didn’t purchase at regular prices.

Not worth the money

Thought the sound would be better
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Overall sound isn’t as good as I thought it would be. Also, bluetooth connection isn’t very strong compared to other Bluetooth speakers as well as the remote connection.

Ugh, if not for one BAD feature...
|Posted . Owned for 2 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I would've liked it if it didn't shut off every 15 to 20 mins. I found some instructions on the internet how to cut the, I guess, power save mode off and that method doesn't work. That feature is really annoying and insignia should definitely reconsider adding that to their future products.

Decent sound for the price
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Not very impressed with this sound bar, but it's still better than the tv speakers.. also, if you have a Samsung tv like I do there could be issues with controlling the sound with the tv or Roku remote

Soundbar is cheap Sub is useless
||Posted . Owned for less than 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I wish I realized this has been on a permanent sale before I bought it. Assumed I was getting a deal but I immediately realized it's just a cheap product. The soundbar is fine but the subwoofer is basically not there.

Another Subpar Product from Insignia
||Posted . Owned for 1 year when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Horrible performance out of the box. Connection issues and the subwoofer drops connection every thirty seconds or so. Depending on the what you are watching the audio is mixed, explosions and gun fire are loud (appropriately so) while dialogue is low regardless of the setting or volume. You are better off buying a better quality product for a bit more money. Insignia never fails to underwhelm and disappoint.

Subwoofer is awful
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Purchased this at a great price on sale. I previously purchased NS-HSB318 by Insignia and was pleased with the quality. However this seems to really fall short on the quality of the subwoofer. The design and remote functions do not seem to have the same build quality. I tried cranking up the bass after I figured out how to do it, but still really couldn’t hear it. I’m exchanging it for a different brand tomorrow. A bit disappointed as the previous Insignia sound bar I got was great.
