    I feel that there could be a better value out there with more speakers for this price. But it suited my needs and has amazing base!

    I've had this setup for a month now. Without surround speakers, this soundbar might as well only have a center speaker when it comes to any kind of audio I have used. I have the voice setting turned all the way down and it still stands out so much the side speakers don't seem to work. A few days ago I received the SR1 wireless surround speakers that go with this set and it has made a large difference. Now I get stereo definition with everything else set the same. Also, now the dolby digital actually does something. Even with this full setup, the front left and right channels seem really quiet. I know they work as I have listened right next to them to be sure. I'm still happy with my purchase, though it's mainly the price that has made all the difference. I got the bar and sub set for another $70 off best buy's price as an open box missing the HDMI cable. This will hold me over until I can upgrade to a more dedicated home theater setup. Then I'll move this to the bedroom or office.

    The sound was okay, the feature to increase voice over background was excellent. The unit worked well about 2 weeks. It began shutting down automatically (about every 10 minutes). We reset the unit several times and the issue persisted. Ended up getting a refund. We believe it could have been interference with other electronic devices. Nonetheless, it was returned.

    I bought one of these for a curbside pick up, reviews seemed pretty decent. The things I was drawn to were... the brand, 8"subwoofer, wattage, and sale price. Unfortunately the subwoofer bottoms out easily, it's made of cheap foam surrounds, the vocals and midrange are essentially non existent, the remote is trash, you literally have to push down with an absorbent amount of pressure to make anything happen, never connected to my phone for Google home, would not even work with 4k 5.1 apps on my tv. I had to turn to standard stereo for Netflix and that's not even an option on D+ so I couldn't even use it. I returned this unit and purchased the vizio 5.1 at...mhmmm of all places target for $169 and it blows the polk away. If I want an upgrade after this I'll invest my money in a component system.

    Love the sound, different controls to turn the bass high and voice low or the other way around, the bass is amazing feel the whole room shake a lil bit, only thing i didnt like was when you switch inputs it turns off and takes a min to turn back on so would pause the movie untill it comes on unless u wanna use the remote to turn it on, other then that i love it

    It's a great system. I was greatly surprised by how loud it can get. I upgraded to this from a 1000watt surround sound system an honestly the volume on this could blow my old system out of the water. I only say it is lacking because there is no on screen settings menu. There are only LED's on the front that tell you what changes your making, if you can remember what the different colors and number of LED's mean. If it had an onscreen menu it would earn it's 5star.
