" ... However, this has got to be one of the best sounding pieces of audio equipment I've installed in my house, ever. ... As for sound, I've tested this sub with various games, music, and movies/shows. ... Explosions rock the house, engines roar, and the overall clarity of the thing is just fantastic. ... Every sound that comes out of it reminds me of a movie theater, a really good movie theater. ... I will say though that the Virtual Surround Sound feature isn't that great and just makes everything sound a bit off, third party remote pairing a is bit tricky, plus the lack of any special features like HDMI input may put some people off. ... "

" ... A cheap remote control and bad Bluetooth connection. ... "
" ... The remote control is bad, if you need to use it you must be facing the soundbar and make direct straight line in order for it to read the signal. ... "
" ... Junk will not even pair with a Tivo remote. ... how can you not Pair remotes . ... "
" ... The remote also didn't work very well either. ... "
" ... The reason I didn't keep this soundbar is the remote didn't work at all, and also the instructions it came with were not clear. ... "
" ... The setup manual is worthless (indicative of an incredibly lazy corporate culture), the remote is awful (apparently designed by those with the engineering expertise of a kindergartner), and the sound quality is that of a $50 soundbar (at full volume, the subwoofer is barely noticeable). ... "
" ... Only gripe is the lack of ability to control volume with DirecTV remote. ... "
" ... LG TV s magic remote cannot control so no option here other than using the soundbar remote for controlling. ... "

" ... I used the bluetooth connection from a bluetooth transmitter module that i have to avoid running audio cables to this unit. ...
