    The sound bar and subwoofer work great. It took a bit to grasp what it really can do, but it certainly does what we expected and more.

    Absolutely LOVE this soundbar. We formerly had the LG SK10Y, and we decided to go with smaller and more compact, and it has delivered. The sound quality is mind blowing, and the sub delivers! Highly suggest.

    Great Way to Get Better TV Audio

    I was desperately in need of a better sound option for my TV setup in my home office. The Polk Audio MagniFi 2 sound bar overall was a great option to fulfill my needs. Whether I'm watching a movie or simply need a quality speaker to stream audio from Spotify, the Polk Audio does a great job. PROS Inputs - While there are various inputs (3.5mm, HDMI, Optical), the HDMI port is the most relevant for connecting your TV to this device. The HDMI ARC is a real win here as I can simply use one remote to control the TV and the sound bar's audio. Compared to my previous setup before this sound bar, I cannot tell you how awesome this is. Wireless Connectivity - Bluetooth and Wi-Fi makes playing streaming audio on this sound bar convenient. While the Bluetooth feature works well, I ended up using the other third-party compatibility to play streaming audio from Spotify. It works well and sounds great. Punchy Bass - The wireless subwoofer is a great upgrade for me. The extra bass I can get when listening to music or watching movies is perfect. Though the bass is not as powerful as I would have hoped, it does a great job. Furthermore, the woofer is wireless. This means I was able to set it across the room next to a chair so it is not in the way or in plain sight. Nice Design - Overall, I like the way the sound bar and subwoofer look. I know it may kind of sound silly, but there are some pretty ugly sound bars on the market. This is one of the better looking ones. CONS Remote Control - I don't like that the buttons on the remote are basically all flush without real tactical buttons. Sure, there are some indentations like on the master volume toggle, but overall I think this is a bit of a cumbersome setup - especially when using in a dark room. Sound Bar Grill - I'm not much of a fan of the grill that wraps around the sound bar. I feel like it's easy for dust to get caught up on it and I will eventually have to use a small vacuum instead of a duster. Time will tell, but I much prefer a more metal casing like you find with some leading competitors. OVERALL This sound bar was an awesome upgrade to a cheapy that I previously had in my home office. It certainly provides better sound and the wireless subwoofer adds kick of bass with the flexibility of letting me place it anywhere in the room. If you are looking to upgrade a low-end sound bar or enhance your TV's sound if you do not have a sound bar at all, then the Polk MagniFi 2 would be a nice option.

    Too Frustrating

    Posted . Owned for 9 months when reviewed.
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    After about 9 months of owning this product here are a few reasons why I don’t think you should buy it: 1) no text display, all control indications are given by colored LED lights which are not intuitive. 2) The subwoofer and surround speakers disconnect from the sound bar frequently and need to be power-cycled often to reestablish connection. 3) HDMI connectivity has completely failed, none of the HDMI ports pass video signals anymore - now only audio. This includes the ARC connection to the fifth HDMI port. The only working port on the device is now the optical audio input. Beyond frustrating.

      Hello, the main speaker (Subwoofer) may need to be re-synced with the soundbar. The Soundbar communicates with the subwoofer via RF. Other nearby wireless devices, including wireless routers, can cause communication issues. Temporarily place the subwoofer near the soundbar for initial pairing. Once paired, you can move the sub to its desired location. Relocating other nearby wireless devices may be necessary. If you need more help, please contact Polk Support by visiting https://support.polkaudio.com/. PolkAudioMarketing

    I purchases the sound bar and the wireless sr2 speakers from polk and the sound is amazing. The 3D audio really enhances your video game and movie experience. Only problem with the system is that every so often the sound will stop and then continue. Its like a audio skip for a solid 5 seconds and it makes me miss key dialogue in both movies and video games. Ive tried many ways to fix it from replacing the hdmi cord in the arc ports. Removing and using the optical cord. Nothing seems to fix it. Calling polk customer service is a whole other can of worms I dont want to get into. Essentially its impossible to get real help. Systems would be everything I wanted if it werent for the audio skips.
