A little disappointed
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's expensive for what you get. It doesn't sound any better than my $139 LG soundbar that came with a wireless subwoofer. It is 10 times the price and doesn't come with a subwoofer which is another $350 or $550.
