It makes sense why this soundbar is on sale, because it don't work. Got my soundbar, hooked it up, called my family to watch a movie 10 minutes in couldn't control the volume, 45 min in soundbar shuts off and won't power back on. I gave the benefit of the doubt because of the name but this is very disappointing. Now I'm embarrassed and have to wait to Monday to get support. Shouldn't have never sold my receiver. Stock TV hurt my feelings
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

This sound bar is amazing. The sound quality is the best of any sound bar I have owned, including Bose. The bass is as good as I get out of my enormous DefTec BP9080’s floor speakers. High end is marvelous as well. Super easy to set up and use. Highly recommend!
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this a month ago and I’m so disappointed. I’m using the ARC as input. It is not smooth as what others have said. It doesn’t work 90% of the time. I have to manually unplug the power source and do a hard reboot in order for it to work.

Make sure you use an HDMI 2.0a or higher cable. The cable included with your soundbar meets these standards, so we strongly recommend you use this cable. Ensure the following TV settings match:
-If you have an eARC Capable TV, set HDMI e-ARC Mode to Auto or On. -Set Digital Output Format to Pass-Through (on some TVs and projectors, this is named Bitstream. -Set Dolby Atmos to Enabled.
This soundbar is fabulous, I replaced my Klipsch 600 soundbar that was a P o s. It was constantly shutting off where I had to unplug to get it to reconnect to the TV. It was connected to the TV through the HDMI ARC just like the 800 is. The 800 is great, the 600 not so much.
Works good. Hard to connect to internet. Constantly cuts out for a second when watching movies. Can become annoying. Sounds good when not cutting out. Sub is great tho.
Great sound quality but constantly drops connection during viewing
