    The poor Overall Rating is not due to the product itself, it reflects the poor (or non existing) customer support from Best Buy. I ordered an Open Box product which was categorized as being in "Excellent" condition. According to the Best Buy website, Open Boxes ship with all parts that belong to the product. In my case, all hardware (wall fixtures and stands) as well as the cable that allows to use the TV as center speaker were missing. When I called support, I was told that yes, Excellent means all parts should be there but if not, the Best Buy policy is not to do anything - it's the customer's problem to fix, they are not willing to do anything. I spoke with a supervisor as well, same poor answer. I understand that mistakes can happen, but a company interested in customer satisfaction would be willing to correct their mistakes. So if you are looking to buy the bar, make sure to get it from a company that stands behind their promises.
