    For $99 dollar deal of the day this is an excellent way to dip your toe into the surround sound world. Quality sound, no distortion. Not the loudest but will work fine for small living room environments.

    Sub is powered with good clear sound. It does have a good safety feature which shuts the sub off when movies don't have the base or action. While good this can be frustrating.
