    The compatible 3.1 sound bar is ok, but it really needs the addition of this rear speaker kit. Made all the difference.

    The setup didn’t connect at first don’t know if I had the wires to deep in the prongs. Once they connected haven’t had another connection issue. The sound quality is clear I just wish they were a tad bit louder for the location, I have mine mounted behind the couch near the ceiling in a basement.

    The best thing about these is they are wireless and the setup is easy to do. They could be louder, that is the only complaint I have. In a large room they do help distribute the sound so the room feels more full, but in a small room they might not be noticeable. That’s the only reason I’d give 4 out of 5 stars.

    I have never bought rear location surround sound speakers before, but I wills the volume of these speakers is okay. These speakers are really only designed to hear the "background noise" in movies. You can hear birds chirping, cars driving in the background, and lots of other background noises, but not really the main voices as they speak. I have never had other surround sound speakers before, so not sure how they compare, but these are okay for a Black Friday discount. There are cords that run from them to the box, the pictures are deceiving. Be prepared for long cords running across the floor. Also, you need a wall socket near. We bough the Sanus stands and they work well with them and the double sided tape that comes with it. The internet connection needs to be strong too; they fade in and out if the internet connection is weak.

    I took advantage of the deal to pair these little speakers with the soundbar I purchased. Upon opening the box I was a bit surprised at how small the speakers were. I was skeptical how they would sound or if they were worth the add on price. But, I'm pleasantly surprised! They add a subtle, welcome dimension to the listening experience. I've placed mine directly on my living room chair, which seems to work well for my 500 sqft studio loft. I'm unsure why they're called wireless though. I mean, they're easy to move and place anywhere since the power unit that connects to the soundbar via bluetooth can be put where you like, under the chair in my case, but the speakers themselves still have to be connected via wires to the power unit. So, kind of a silly marketing ploy. Wireless to me means without wires but I suppose the argument could be made that the wireless claim is in reference to how the power unit connects to the soundbar....I guess it's neither here nor there. Overall, happy with the purchase and the additional value the speakers add to my television viewing experience.

    The only thing my wife didn't like about this is it's not "wireless." It's true it's wireless from the soundbar, but the speakers themselves still required wired connections to the base unit. Needless to say, she wasn't happy with that - even thought the sound quality is good and works well with our other components.

    I haven’t completely finished setting up the surround sound system. Waiting for speaker stands. The sound I’m getting with them in the back of the room is good. Can’t wait for the complete system to be up and running.

    Bought these wireless rear speakers to pair with my HW M550 3.1 sound bar. The speakers have clear clean sound and work perfectly with my sound bar. They produce the right amount of sound. Although they are not completely wireless as the have wires that go from the wireless hub to the actual speakers but is wireless from the sound bar itself. I also got a good deal when I bought these with my sound bar I only paid about $90 for them. If you buy a compatible sound bar, these are a must purchase to complete your system. I would definitely recommend.

    I actually purchased these, thought they weren't powerful enough, returned them, and then missed them, and - repurchased them! They are very easy to install, they sync with the sound bar easily, and once you learn where to turn up the volume on them, they add a lot to the TV and movie watching experience.
