    The sound from this was no better than the NXTFrame TV it was connected to. I returned it after a day and bought a Sonos Beam Gen 2 which is satisfactory.

    This item looks great but the performance is terrible it’s very hard to find a comfortable volume either to loud or not loud enough and the sub constantly disconnects I had high hopes so this review saddens me.

    Great value, nice sound, integrates with TCL Q6

    Posted .
    This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.

    Works great with my TCL 55" Q6 (55Q671G) and has native integration with the settings on the TV so it all works with a single remote. I'm able to go into the settings on the TV and enable night mode, change the style from Standard to Movie to Music, etc. It also supports using the internal speakers + soundbar (which TCL calls "Tutti Choral"), although on the Q6 that mode doesn't sound very good. I haven't figured out if I can adjust the balance of built-in speaker vs soundbar yet, but the default setting makes the TV speakers way too loud in comparison to the soundbar. I'm very happy with the dramatic improvement in sound compared to the TV's built-in speakers. This is a great budget option for someone looking for a simple setup to add some clarity and richness of sound to their TV, especially a TCL TV.

    Just an insane value, especially on special, this thing has amazing customization of sound for all types of viewing and music listening, it's so easy to find a sound you like! Seriously, from very effective dialog enhancement and night modes to decent sounding fake surround effects, it's a fun toy for the audiophile for a bedroom TV, this thing is a neat little swiss army knife of audio for this budget! One downside, it does announce the source every power up, but isn't too ridiculously loud. I hope this is addressed in a firmware update, but is the only downside at all to this thing.

    Pretty cheap compared to the rest. I was skeptical at first due to the brand not being the most well known for audio but I was definitely surprised to heae the sound quality at both low and high volumes. If connected to a TCL TV, you plug it all in and the tv prompts you if youd like to set it up and you do the rest with the tv remote. It all sets up extremely fast also. The sound quality definitely compares to a lot more well known expensive brands. I would definitely recommend. It also has bluetooth to use for your phone. You just have to download the TCL home app to use the bluetooth for your phone.

    Sound is pretty good compared to my LG C4 TV speakers. I'm using this for my movies, Xbox series x and PS5 Pro. The Dolby atmos sounds great but for anyone make sure you use the HDMI EARC port on your TV or you won't get this if you want uncompressed sound.
