    For $129 holy cow. Loud with deep bass. Not sure the Atmos is too great compared to higher end systems but still for my basement tied to my 65" TCL 6 series it is awesome.

    If you can get this for sale i really recommend you picking it up. I got mine for $150 and at that price it is well worth it. I have a Polk Audio soundbar that was at least twice as much and this soundbar keeps up with it and some. I took one star off because the Atmos is really not noticable. At least not to me. I've heard true Atmos before and this ain't it. The only other thing i can say is make sure your TV settings are correct or you will not get eArc working properly. I had to go deep into my Fire TV to get that setting right. Other than those small complaints i really recommend this system.

    Bought a Tcl tv to pair with it and sound is okay. Other sound bars in house are Sonos, so should have expected. Hard to attach to the 65” Tcl tv either on top or bottom. Tcl needs to have sound at brackets for sale as the universal ones aren’t always universal

    I was skeptical about about buying anything other than a Yamaha or Sony sound bar/subwoofer, but I was pleasantly surprised by this product. Subwoofer looks a little “plasticy”, it sounds decent. Had a little difficulty getting the subwoofer to pair, but I think that was my mistake.
