Customers highly value the Signa S2's sound quality, bass, and ease of use, frequently praising its impressive audio performance and user-friendly features. Many also appreciate the soundbar's compact size and affordable price point. While some users suggest improvements to the remote control and the lack of a display, the positive feedback on the sound and ease of setup outweighs these minor drawbacks.

    Great beginner's sound system at a great price

    I have had nothing but 5.1 systems since starting my adult life. My first system was an off brand that had 1,000 feet wire for the rear speakers. For an off brand it was not too bad except for all the wires everywhere. My last system before buying this Polk 2.1 Signa S2 was a Vizio 5.1 2nd gen series. That Vizio had wireless rear speakers and offered true surround sound experience, while offering an amazing sound quality, and being wireless and Bluetooth able, for under $400.00. Sadly it stopped working after 5 years of use. I didn't have much money for a new fancy surround sound system so decided to try the Polk Signa S2. I have to admit for only being a 2.1 system it really does offer amazing sound quality. I have a smaller living room so of course most systems are going to sound good. I would say that if you are new to buying a sound bar set up and don't have a lot of money to shell out, this This particular system really is great for beginners. The bass quality from the woofer does provide a good rumble for just a 5.5 inch speaker. The bar itself does provide great voice adjustments ( 3 settings) depending on what you are watching or listening to. The clarity of sound is nice and clear. For a smaller bar it really packs a punch for amazing sound. Now to get to why I only gave it 4 stars. The reason for the 4 stars is only because of my personal preference for sound quality. I sadly will be returning this as I just cannot live without my true surround sound that 5.1 and 7.1 systems offer. Granted I will have to spend a bit more money for the 7.1 system I have my eye on, but I would rather spend the extra money for a more powerful true surround theater experience. Please don't let my review deter you though from trying this 2.1 system The only thing I find actually a bit annoying in my opinion with this unit is the LED light shines right in the middle of the sound bar. It isn't super bright but still pulls my vision to it when I am trying to watch a movie. Again this is the only thing I find annoying, but only because I am used to other bars having a more discreet power light. That being said, I am super picky and have expensive taste but this sytem really is wonderfully made for those that are just starting the experience of sound bars. If you dont care about having the extra satellite speakers or not needing that extra boost of surround sound, or just need to stay on a stricter budget, then this bar is great for starting out. You really should get this system for a 2.1 set up!

    Thinking Polk is kind of high-end for the normal person, I bought this for my garage. I wanted it to "blast" music from my tv. It falls short.... Samsung one bought 5 years ago is much better. Disappointed
