    I would've given this system a perfect rating because I love the sound it has, however I was not pleased that it was Representated as "Wireless" when indeed the system definitely requires wires running across the living room to the speakers.

    This soundbar works great and the sound is amazing. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 is because of the difficulty of setup. It took me awhile to get it working properly with my tv and I ended up having to call customer service. They were very helpful.

    I have been very pleased with this system. Subwoofer has serious base. Bar has clear sound. Don't hear much out of the surround speakers, but that's no biggie. The design of the sub is awesome as well. Setup is easy.

    Sure beats turning the TV way up each time the Air Conditioner comes on. Far better sound reproduction than the small TV speakers, and now with multiple speakers, sounds more like the action is "moving" as if you are there! Great value for the money.

    Really disappointed with product. I may have had higher hopes than was reasonable, but I expected more quality volume from this system. Very easy to set up and pair Woofer with sound bar. I just don't think the sound quality is worth the price.

    I bought this for my husband for Christmas. I hired the Geek Squad to come to our home and hook it up. The best 130.00 ever spent because I did t have to listen to him take 3 days to figure it out. They are professionals and had everything f hooked up to the tv/sound system in about 30-45 minutes. Cords tucked away and the sound balanced in the room with clear instructions on how to operate the system.

    I recently updated from an older 5.1 system and the sound quality from this system is so much cleaner and is such a compact size. I love the fact that the sub woofer is wireless and that the rear speakers plug into it. That means no hiding wires.
