My only complaint is that the system goes "idle" after a few hours of watching tv without touching the remote.

Wow I was blown away with this speakers with Subwoofer. The sounds are crystal clear and I have to keep the volume low because it's so loud which I really like it! Also the subwoofer is wireless which means I can put it anywhere in my room without being close to the soundbar. The subwoofer has really good bass that when I shoot in the game it gives realistic boom feel through the subwoofer from the game.

Absolutely incredible product. I truly believe this product can go toe to toe with the normal big sound competitors. I bought it to be compatible with my Vizio TV and it works seemlessly with it. Pairing it with a google home is incredible easy voice navigation too. I’m afraid my wife will now cause us an eviction notice from how loud, crisp, and deep the Bass gets. It will rattle the walls on only volume 11!! (It goes up to like 30 I think) Overall incredible value!!

Pretty good sound not the best by any means but certainly not the worst if you’re looking to rock your house this is probably not the system for you but it does pump out some nice bass.

I love the sound of the system but I do wish it was easier to connect/ get it set up. The system occasionally shuts off on its own but that's only when the volume is close to it being silent. Other then that, its a great product for a great price. Would recommend it to others.

Finally a better sound at this price bracket. Nice clear sound. Sub is decent too. It cuts off once in a while but mostly when no audio is playing. Fingers crossed it keeps doing what it’s supposed and it’s great. Easy set up and many options to connect.

Great product, I really recommend this to anyone who is looking for a cheap and complete 5.1 audio experience. Also, it is much better than the tv integrated audio. Of course it doesn't compares to a Bose or Sonos, but still the build quality and sound quality is exceptional for the price range.

I got this sound bar for my bed room as i currently have the gen 2 for my living room. The sound quality is good but the subwoofer leaves something to be desired. The older sub has a deep bass punch. The new sub doesn't compare and has a super shallow bass that doesn't hit.

I really wasn't expecting what I brought in this audio system! The sound is way more than I was looking for and that's a very good thing. If you want sound to go throughout the room you're in then this is perfect for you. I'm very pleased and recommend this sound bar to whoever is looking for great quality sound.
