    It sounds nice if working, we keep having to resetting to get power on. We have to reset multiple times a day. Yes, we tried a different outlet but randomly stops work. We reset unit and re-paired to sound bar, no change. Only 3 months old, Best Buy won’t do anything since it’s over 14 days

    Sound quality is top notch from the bar to the surrounds. The woofer is very inconspicuous and provides excellent bass. Great addition to my home set up.

    Sounds good in theory, but rear speakers don't have much oomph to them and wireless sub more often than not does not connect. Go for the Sony HT NT5. Great sound bar with options to add the rears later and more features.

    Easy to set up and wireless sub keeps cables at a minimum. Rear speaker connect to sub so everything hidden. Vizio app allows easy GUI setup.
