    The sound bar sounded really good! I returned because the buttons on top of the sound bar would not work. Maybe I just received a faulty one. I did return it for a more costly JBL and it works even better.

    Would've been 5 star but sometimes the speaker would stop working for a second, then comes back on.

    Solid speaker with some annoyances

    So overall, this speaker is solid but there are a few features (or lack of) that really bring down the score. Pros: Overall solid sound Subwoofer connects easily and doesn’t lose connection Easy setup Cons: You can only adjust the EQ to three presets and that’s it. Can’t adjust the highs, lows, or mids. Nothing, very annoying with how much it costs, you would think you would be able to adjust it Speaker has an auto-sleep feature that is triggered after 10 minutes if no sound is playing. This becomes really annoying because with CEC, my tv screen will go blank for a few seconds because it detects the speaker going to sleep. This may be my tv causing problems too but it would be nice if I could adjust or turn off this feature So I said the overall sound is solid, and it is but one thing I noticed was at peaks of some highs you get a bit of distortion of sorts. Most would probably not notice it but it is noticeable for me

    This was to replace my mom's old speaker. The subwoofer says to sit close to the bar, but I managed to place it across the room and it still sounds great when we watch RuPaul's drag race with her.

    I bought this soundbar and subwoofer combo for my projector screen, but with it being cordless, I easily move it between my televsion and projector. I bought it during the black friday deal and couldnt be happier! Several different options of sound mode (clear voice, cinema, music, etc.) I use cinema most frequent and it sounds like I am in the movie theater! It has hdmi arc, so I can connect all my connections with one cable. Bluetooth allows my cell phone to connect without cables.
