    Sound is way better than expected. The bass is good and I usually have to turn it down. Price for this unit is worth the money.

    Holy smokes!!! Brings the theatre home, and playing video games is almost scary. I was a little hesitant to buy this at first, and was looking at Sony and Sonos, the Best Buy guy saw me fiddling around and had to show me this. Glad he did, and for the price you definitely can't beat it.
