    The sound on this is incredible but as others have reported, it consistently drops connectivity and you have to unplug it to resolve the issue.

  • AI Feature Sucked

    I wanted to like this so bad, but couldn't. I had to return it and get the Klipsch Flexus Core 210. It has this AI feature that you just can't keep off. You have to turn it off every single time you turn on the system and gets very tedious remembering to do so every time you turn it on. The smart feature makes things sound so muffled that you have to keep raising the volume, which causes the bass to go up with it, but you cannot raise it up to high in this mode because then it distorts sound. It would have been amazing if you could turn off that AI feature and keep it off. It may work for you, but not for me!

    This is a great little setup for sure. The sound is loud and clear from the bar, and the sub is crisp and does the job well!
