    Being honest I expected way more when I purchased this soundbar considering the high price point. The soundbar was bad it kept disconnecting from the tv every five minutes. I have to turn it off and and on again in order for it to work. Also the sound quality was not great either considering the price there are many options with way better sound at this price.
