Love it! Great sound quality and super easy to set up. I currently have two of these in surround mode but I got to tinker with them outside of the 5.1 system. By itself it's a great little unit when compared to other speakers like the big jambox by jaw bone it's in a league of its own!! Paired in stereo mode these are INCREDIBLE! Range is not an issue like it is with Bluetooth speakers and sound quality is better than just about any other wireless speaker I've ever heard. It's up there with the B&W zeppelin A5. You can put two of these in stereo and add a sub for a superb music streaming system.
What's great about it: Sound quality and ease of use
What's not so great: Nothing

My wife hates technology. I love technology. So we have to meet somewhere in the middle. I found this product in my search for a potentially expandable soundbar option. I wanted something with minimal wires that I could eventually make into a nice 5.1 system. I never thought I would find something like this little gem. Needless to say I'm hooked now! It isn't perfect and there are some snafus however overall I am in love with this soundbar. Sound wise it is definitely higher end - potentially audiophile quality or possibly right under. MUCH MUCH better than say a Bose product. This is the real deal 9 drivers, 3 tweeters and 6 mid woofers. It acts as a real 3.0 system. I originally went home with the playbar and woofer but within three weeks I had 2 play 3s on order to act as the surrounds. With this configuration I can confirm a discrete 5.1 channels with no faux surround in sight. Good stuff. The sub woofer is absolutely incredible. The cleanest sub I've ever heard, good spl also. The play bar and other speakers look fantastic, very high end indeed! The nicest thing about this system is it eliminates any need for separate music speakers or docks. Since every thing is wireless you can play music from your ipad without moving. It's amazing. I definitely listen to more music now that I have the sonos system. My biggest frustration is with the single optical input, however this is easily resolved with a $35 toslink switch.
What's great about it: Clarity, expand ability
What's not so great: Nothing

Never thought a cable would make a difference in audio. Let alone an Ethernet cable...lol. I have four of these in my network currently and plan to add a few more, I stream music from my synology ds213 NAS DRIVE to my sonos 5.1 . Sound quality is marvelous and it is very low clutter. Wife approved.

I'm now a believer!

I've always just used the cheapest cables I could find. They have always worked well. I've always been told that your system is only as good as its weakest link. after trying one of these in my system I am seeing and hearing what they mean. Picture wise, it looks amazing, subtly better. Sound wise, THIS is where the biggest improvement is. As a back story I own a 60 in Panasonic VT60 PLASMA. I also own a Sonos playbar with sub. After hearing the sound stage widen up and the lack of buzz at low volumes I am now a believer. Do I think you need to go this high end to achieve that? Probably not. But I will say this, buyer beware! Once you buy one of these you may end up spending every last penny you have in pursuit of perfection.

You need a 3d capable blu ray player and a 3d tv. It sounds like you are good to go. Of course you need glasses too if required by your tv.

How to fix a Bose sound system that just stopped working?
Had a power outage but tv wasn't on. Power came back on, turned on the tv, and everything works but the Bose sound. Universal remote tried to fix but couldn't, it said to go to online support software. What do I do now?
If your still under warranty go to Bose website and start an rma to get it fixed.

how do i ge a stronger signal for my smart tv so that it is not always up loading when im on netflixs
This can be achieved in a variety of methods. First off and best option would be to hook your tv up via the Ethernet connection. If your not able to run cable then purchase a power line kit which will use your electrical outlets as a cable. It may be that your router isn't sending a strong enough signal (or you have allot of interference ) so you could buy a better router, preferably one with external antennas. I own an Asus wireless N router which Best Buy sells for a reasonable $129. My router works wonderfully with Netflix and Hulu plus.
The final option and admittedly the worse option would be to turn down the streaming quality of netflix by logging into the netflix website and going under settings. This will lower the bandwidth requirements on your router.

what dose it mean when it say e or m series
Depending on the context of your question it can mean a variety of things. In relation to Vizio Tvs that is how they differentiate their low end and high end. I believe the M series is the high end so it will have better picture quality. Contact your local BestBuy home theater associate for exact differences.

what type of warranty comes with a samsung tv
Samsung Tvs come standard with a one year manufacture defect only. This will cover any parts and labor caused by a defect in the craftsmanship of the product. I however do recommend purchasing an extended warranty as my dealings with Samsungs RMA service have been subpar at best.
