    Subwoofer disconnects all the time, so does the sound bar. The remote that comes with it looks like it came with a kitty toy. Plastic and cheap. Can't even use it from across my room due to weak bluetooth. Don't buy this product.

    This sound bar is the worst product we’ve bought in years. It randomly cuts off at anytime not just after it’s been on awhile, very annoying. There is no way to turn that power saver feature off.

    This was the worst sound bar out of all 4 I’ve tried. It has terrible sound and feels really cheap. On top of that the subwoofer sounded like a demon robot was talking through it the whole time. Absolutely a piece of garbage.

    Problem after problem with this soundbar, the most frustrating being that there's inconsistent sound - the bass randomly drops out. Suspecting this may be defective and will be returning.

    Great Soundbar with minor flaws

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    This is my first soundbar. The Signa S2 is on display at my local BestBuy along with other brands raging at the same price and higher, I tried to do a sound test on the Signa S2 and the other brands but I had no luck. Knowing Polk's reputation and reading a small review on CNET, I decided to give this one a try. I have to say this soundbar paired nicely on my 55" LED Samsung TV. The design and wireless subwoofer is a plus, the sound is great on both the soundbar and subwoofer, there's no lacking with the voice speech and Bluetooh connectivity was ease. I didn't see any detail of the amount of watts for this model, judging from it's power and price range I'm guessing around 300Watts. Now to the Cons...there's no display for volume level when pressing the Bass/Volume+- buttons. After testing various songs using my phone via Bluetooth, I wanted to go back to the TV sound, there's no "Input" button on the control so I clicked on the "TV" button but no sound was heard, I stood up and pressed the "Input" button on the soundbar and the sound was back, that's a little disappointing if I have to do that every time I use the Bluetooh. In the long run I'm hoping there aren't any other issues/flaws with this soundbar, so far I'm satisfied with it's current performance.

    Polk Audio Signa S2 Ultra-Slim

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    I've tried a couple of 2.1 All-in-One units and it seemed to send the dialog from movies or shows to the sides of me when I am directly in front of the T.V and the other effects at me. Makes for listening to dialog hard. But this one is perfect with the setting that are just for dialog enhancement. It in my bedroom so I don't need it to loud or too much bass but this does get plenty loud and just a little more bass that I can adjust down. Easy to set up and auto pairs with the subwoofer. Music also sounds wonderful through this with the full range it is able to achieve. Very happy with the sound quality, ease of use, and price point makes this a great pick. Just wish I bought this first so I didn't have to bother with the other two I tried.

    Subwoofer was overpowered, the "Clear Voice" feature didn't amplify voices as much as promised. The Polk React is FAR better IMHO and only $50 more.
