  • Might work well in individual square rooms

    I think this product is more directed towards square individual rooms as opposed to open areas. You can’t put the subwoofer very far from the main speaker. Only sitting directly in front of unit will seem as though the sound is surround. Not horrible but not fantastic.

    No, I would not recommend this to a friend
