Review: iLive 17" Multimedia Sound Bar – Compact D
on May 25, 2025

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] As an audio enthusiast and tech reviewer, I recently ha mmd the opportunity to test the iLive 17" Multimedia Sound Bar, and I must say—it punches well above its weight in terms of performance, connectivity, and value.
Design & Build Quality:
The sound bar sports a sleek, minimalist profile that blends well with modern setups. Measuring just 17 inches, it's tailored for smaller entertainment areas, desktops, or secondary TVs. The matte black finish gives it a premium look, while the compact form factor ensures it doesn’t crowd your space.

Audio Performance:
Despite its small footprint, the iLive sound bar delivers surprisingly robust sound. The stereo output is crisp, with a balanced midrange and articulate highs. While it understandably lacks deep sub-bass (given the absence of a dedicated subwoofer), it still offers enough low-end presence to handle movie dialogue, podcasts, and background music with clarity. For casual users or secondary setups, the performance is more than adequate.

One of the strongest aspects of this unit is its versatility. It supports:
Bluetooth (v5.0): Fast pairing with stable wireless performance—perfect for streaming from smartphones or tablets.
AUX-In and RCA Inputs: For legacy devices or wired setups, it offers standard analog connections.
USB Playback: A rare bonus in this category—plug in a USB flash drive and play MP3 files directly.
The onboard controls are intuitive, and the included remote provides full access to power, volume, track navigation, input selection, and EQ modes. While the EQ is basic, it does help tailor the sound for music, movies, or voice clarity.
Performance Highlights:
Frequency Response: Approx. 100 Hz – 20 kHz
Power Output: 2 x 5W RMS speakers (Total: 10W RMS)
Bluetooth Range: ~33 ft (10m)
Form Factor: Wall-mountable or tabletop placement
Limitations:
This sound bar isn't meant to replace a full home theater system. Bass enthusiasts may miss the presence of a subwoofer, and volume output is best suited for small to medium rooms. That said, it’s ideal for users who want clean, reliable sound in compact spaces.
