    Sometimes the bar loses contact with the TV and can be a little aggravating but it could be user error. Had it hooked up via Bluetooth before and now am using the HDMI cable and it is better.

    This was just what I was looking for! The only down side was setting it up - I did not know that an HDMI cable was needed so I had to buy one before I could install it.

    I bought this for my boyfriend and he said he feels like he is at the movie theater with this soundbar (along with his 70" tv). It produces very good sound...great bass.

    We had troubles with the sound projecting backwards down the hallway to our bedroom since out TV is not against a wall. This directs it forward and has great sound.
