    It’s a cheap OK sound bar, not much more than that! If your looking for value this it, but it’s no we’re near the higher end sound bars.

    I bought this and kept in mind I was not getting premium, but disappointed that the only way to be able to hear dialog you have to turn it way up, but when you do that, depending on movie, when music, explosions and other high sound scenes come up, you have to turn it down cause its way to loud. Ok for a small room, good sound with big bangs and explosions. Very basic. Kept it cause its still better than TV speakers

    Not sure due to I don't believe my Sound Bar was set up correctly when the technician came out on December of 2020. I will be calling to see if someone can help me set it up correctly which I have missed 2 years already. I don't have the Geek Squad information whom I'm supposed to reach out to. Thank you.

    We connected this to a TCL TV used mostly for streaming and Video games (Xbox) and it works great! After also buying the Alto 7+ I realized they don't support DTS and might be an issue if you want to use it with a BluRay player

    Works great with my living room tv. I have to turn the sound up a bit to get the volume I want but it spreads the sound out perfectly to every spot in the living room . Was plug n play ready right out of the box.

    I use an optical out with mine and I love the sound on this thing. Even better if you have a TCL television so that you can choose to control with TV remote to change the volume instead of with the stock remote.

    Primary reason purchased was sound bar has the capability of connecting with the HDMI ARC connection. Making controlling audio of sound bar much easier from multiple displays. The cost makes unit very affordable.

    Had higher hopes for this sound bar. The sound in most cases were no better than the tv speakers. Once in a while it would sound pretty good in certain scenes in movies. Highs are poor and most of the time it sounds like you’re in a tunnel. The best part of the speaker was having the HDMI arc connection. Made it very easy to install. I had to return the sound bar and go with a different brand.

    Easy integration into our existing TCL television. One remote controls the TV and sound, which was the goal. The sound is so much better than the TCL alone.

    I bought this sound bar based on the salesman in the store in Melbourne, Fl and can not get a code to control the bar with my GE Universal remote, which I was also told to buy. So when I use the sound bar I always have to have the remote to the bar to control it separatly. Not happy.......
