    Sounds great. The sub is not overpowering (sometimes I wish I had more bass). It definitely is a good sounding system as compared to a TV speaker. PROS Looks good sounds crisp and loud easy set up CONS No equalizer. You get what you get, plus like 3 or buttons for "movie, music, sports..." I don't notice any difference when selecting them. Auto shut off is terrible! If you are using eARC, the sound bar shuts off after like 15 or 20 minutes. So if you pause your movie or TV and walk away, you have to turn the sound bar back on when you come back. It doesn't sound like a big deal, but it gets very annoying very quickly.

    Sounds decent. Downside is the sub can’t be more than 7-8 feet from the sound bar or it will lose connection sporadically

    Great package deal. Sound is great and the bass isn't overpowering but is noticable when it is produced from the subwoofer. Also like that I can place the subwoofer anywhere in the room.
