Middle of Road
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I purchased this on sale for 229. Regular price was 299. 229 is pretty much what it’s really worth. I was working with a budget and it was the best I could find within my budget. It set up easily and quickly. Sound is ok. Not deep and full sounding. I had a LG which was much more expensive and sounded like it. It’s a big improvement over tv speakers but if you can afford it you may want to step up a better bar.

OK, not great. Subwoofer was amazing though.
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It was fine but I felt the sound bar was a bit "tingy". Subwoofer sounded amazing though. My goodness. I am sure I could have dialed it in better but the HW-S50B sounded better as an all in one. We really did not need the subwoofer for that room. Better overall sound with the other one for a few dollars more. (on sale)

||Posted . Owned for 7 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I picked up this soundbar as a used unit. Very glad I did. $130ish to really upgrade the sound of my living room TV. I wish it had Dolby atmos support, but the DTS makes up for it.
