    This is hands-down the best sound bar at Best Buy. Not was this the most explosive-sounding sound bar of all the options on display, but it delivered on voice & commentary as well (commentary is what needs boosted most often). JBL is a reputable brand, so I know this will be a great, long-lasting replacement for my surround sound home theater set.
