Great sound when paired with A80K
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This soundbar is amazing and more than enough for our home and living space. The sound is lively, sound field is awesome and watched a few movies with Dolby atmos and wow what an experience. I paired it with the A80K TV and I couldn’t ask for more. My family is also very satisfied with the product I wouldn’t trade it for anything else, like any Lg or Samsung products.
