    love this sound bar system! We have been through a few other brands and this one has the best sound. The 10" woofer has nice base output, I feel like the output from the soundbar is still better than one that had rear satellite speakers. Caught it on sale so even better.

    I really like the sound quality this thing puts out. Make sure to download the mobile app because it does need firmware updates and thats how it does it. The sound bar system is worth the month. It changes sound settings on its own to adapt to the quality sound setting of what ever your watching.
