This soundbar has excellent sound for a very good price. The wireless subwoofer is great, and the ability to attach devices via bluetooth is a great feature. The only problems stem from remote control. Their are options to have remotes turn the system on, but not control the volume.... or control the volume but not be able to turn the bar on. You're basically stuck having to use the included remote.
This product is a great improvement over the TV speakers. Easy setup and the sub woofer connected right away. If you do not have a TV with ARC capability (2011 and newer) you will need to use the optical cable connection and still need to use 2 controllers. The manual states to connect the Blu-ray player to the HDMI IN and then HDMI OUT to the TV. You can set it up as the manual but to hear the cable TV audio input you will also need to connect to the digital optical connection. To eliminate switching the speaker input from Digital In to HDMI (player) just run the optical from your TV to the speaker optical connection. (connect Bluray HDMI to TV directly). Remember this is only a 2 channel system and your player will decode the PCM to Bitstream audio data. Overall this is a very good system to improve your viewing experience without breaking the bank. Tip: My TV is mounted on the wall and I attached my sound bar directly below my TV by using the pedestal mount screw slots and two high density plastic strips attached to the speaker wall mounts. It fits below my 2009 Samsung 50'' plasma perfectly.
Pros: Inexpensive, very good sound and sound mode selection, small profile
as soon as i hooked this soundbar up i was instantly impressed with the sound quality. it hits the high end sounds with ease and the wireless sub is great too. i was a little skeptical of the wireless woofer but after hearing the sound it pumps out i was very happy. i have only turned the sub up a few times and it definitely hammers out some bass. my favorite part is the ease of setup. i used to have the 5.1 surround going through my living room and when the receiver died i decided i didnt want to go through the hassle of hooking up another system. this definitely does the trick and the 3d sound is one of the best ive heard so far. great product. the power link feature is great too as long as you have an hdmi or optical cable. id recommend getting the optical cable. digital is best and id recommend this to anyone.
Fantastic sound quality along with sound mode variations that include 3D sound that engulfs the room. I have not heard any distortion in sound even at the loudest volume setting. Also the bluetooth connectivity allows you to listen to your music through any of your mobile devices.
Pros: Durable, Lightweight, perfect compliment to your samsung smart tv
I have the UN60ES8000 and HT-E6730W, I put this inline between them and this little setup gives my audio experience that extra kick to the senses. Now I have two subs, one in front and one wireless sub behind me. The speaker bar makes for an extra center channel. Nice, Real Nice..
**NOTE you do not need the E450 if you already have a killer Samsung Home Theater System...
The only Con is the Extra HDMI/optical fiber cable that you will need. Honestly, I suggest to run the E450 inline (by way of HDMI) to your Home Theater System. Only the Best HDMI cable will do in my book and they are not cheap.
Pros: Built-in speakers, Inexpensive, Durable, Lightweight, wireless sub, it jams
