    This is my first sound bar and so far I love it. For the price I think is a great system plus it has audio Chromecast built in.

    This 5.1 setup is a DEAL! The soundbar has a great 3-channel sound and the subwoofer & rear speakers add to the experience.

    Bought this for my parents to go with their new big screen Samsung and so far so good. Except when Mom came screaming out of her bedroom while I was auditioning the system during an epic Game of Thrones battle scene....she said she couldn't think while trying to pray her rosary. Oops. I think Dad likes it though:)

    Good sound for the money ($149). Rear speakers are quite small, which is good in my opinion. Channel adjustability (especially center) is the feature that attracted me to this product.

    When I listen to music - via bluetooth or using youtube on my smart TV - 5 stars - no question asked. The challenges are when you try to turn on and off the TV or switch between apps. You start having sporadic lost of connection and occasionally loosing audio all together.

    I bought this to mainly improve the general sound of the tv speakers. For that - it is an improvement but the 2 little additional speakers aren't that good. They don’t always have any sound. I do have a much better sound system in my family room that has better sound - but it was 3 X the price of this one.
