Klipsch - Reference Series 2.1-Channel Soundbar System with 8" Wireless Subwoofer and Digital Amplifier - Black

Add functionality to your home theater with this powerful Klipsch sound bar. The built-in Dolby Digital Decoder, HDMI connections and additional drivers bring reference-quality audio to your system. This Klipsch sound bar comes with a subwoofer and delivers surround-style sound without the bulk and clutter of multiple speakers and components.

Customer Rating

Limited Bluetooth, otherwise great sound

Purchased at BB after reading many reviews and expecting quality sound based on Klipsch's history. Easy to hook-up to newer Sony TV via optical cable. TV sound is excellent. Pandora streamed through TV was very good. Subwoofer is good, but not overpowering. Dialog enhancement seemed to work well.

When Bluetooth was synced to my iPhone 6, the volume was very low and sound was muffled (almost like AM radio). Sounded the same with my wife's iPhone . Do not have and did not try an Android phone. I had to turn the volume way up just to get to a moderate listening volume. Not sure if this was a Bluetooth compatibility issue with the iPhone (not apt-x?), but this was a deal breaker for me.

Returned the soundbar and will be purchasing the RSB-14 elsewhere when on sale, which has Play-Fi wi-fi. Figured for the money, Play-fi adds better wireless sound quality compared to Bluetooth and can be linked to other speakers. I figure this is the future direction of wireless technology and sound quality.

I would recommend the product, but caution with iPhone Bluetooth. Recommend testing Bluetooth with your phone in the store to ensure satisfaction.

I would recommend this to a friend!
