Great system, poor remote quality
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The sound is great and it's nice to be able to adjust the center channel for more clear spoken dialogue. My only issue is that the remote came essentially broken right out of the box. The volume button/toggle rarely works to turn volume up. It takes about 5 clicks for the button to respond once. Volume down works fine, and so do the rest of the buttons.

||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Like the difference in the sound quality, especially with the sub wolffer hooked up.

Good Sound -- If and When It Works
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been looking for a reasonably priced, decent-sounding 3.1ch soundbar with subwoofer combination for a while. When I heard this in the store, I thought I had found my wish. NO SUCH LUCK. From the day this was installed, the remote control wouldn't work, I couldn't get it to have a full sound, and my main reason for having a 3.1ch system -- to be able to emphasize voice over background -- didn't function at all. Considering all the frustrations, you should not be surprised to read that I exchanged it for a soundbar from the company that manufactured my TV. Would I recommend this soundbar? Not if you have a Sony TV.

Works OK
