    This sound bar was purchased to go with a 60" HDTV at one end of an 18' x 32' room. It hooked up easily and delivers good sound. The sub-wolfer at it's highest setting adds some depth, but is not over-powering. If you want boooming bass, you should step up to a more powerful unit. Over all, this unit is adequate for my modest needs.

    Not listed as the top of the line, but sounds like it is! Very happy with clarity. BT power seems to lack a bit, thats my only con.

    I personally do not use it for my TV, but it is pretty good at what it does. Plays much louder than I intend to actually use it.

    This soundbar system is a good starter, but would be great for someone that doesn't have that ear for sound reproduction. ,

    I bought this soundbar with my new Samsung TV. It took a while to figure out how to make it both power off and on with the tv. However, if I had read the instructions, it would have been much faster :) I did not like the sound that much though. It is just slightly better than the built in speakers in my 8000 series Samsung TV. So I took it back and bought the Yamaha surround sound system instead.
