He even let me connect via bluetooth with my phone so I could hear my music. The sound was incredible for such tiny speakers – I was sold. The subwoofer's performance was also impressive. At 60-watts, the subwoofer isn't nearly as powerful as the one in the Polk Audiopackage, but it pairs well with the rest of the system. The bass was prominent and still had plenty of volume to go before maxing out. The subwoofer was low, punchy and powerful.

I tried every setting on the receiver and the voices out of the middle sounded terrible, switching to 2 channel helped a bit as it avoided the center channel, but what’s the point of a 5. I have owned it for 6 monthsI have put it through its paces in gaming, music, movies,youtube videos. I am completely satisfied, even more than I thought I would be. I did a lot of research before ordering this soundbar/subwooferit paid off because this setup is awesome for general use. You can also wirelessly connect your compatible phone for high-quality Bluetooth music streaming.
I bought this audio system for my home and I actually like it. I have not had less expensive systems but this one is worth to give it a try. I Connected it to a Denon AVR‑X1300W and it works fine. The only concern I have about the system is that I do not know if I used the correct speaker wire to connect it. Trust me on the mounting of these speakers, it’s a nightmare and I am pretty handy and I gave up. The subwoofer brings the bass to life in every song and you can adjust it so it’s not too much, or drowning out the other instrumentals.
Bringing professional quality sound to the home experience
But if you have small space and want something decent, super easy to set up and non intrusive Bose can work. I was doing a lot of research as I didn’t want to buy another system that failed to deliver great sound like I did a year ago. I knew I couldn’t have large towering speakers all around and we love our Bose headphones when we travel. A very good value and accurate sound, with a little special sauce that puts these above and beyond their price class. For such a small form factor, the sound is surprisingly detailed.
Sadly, it seems Klipsch isn’t in the realm of sound bar technology like it is with its other utterly amazing conventional speaker systems. They came very well protected in their shipping cartons and were well documented for setting them up. 1 home theater setup and are also great for just playing music.

The receiver doesn’t convert analog video for the HDMI/ARC signal. So if you are looking to use this receiver to hook up a VCR, you will need to buy an analog to digital converter box, which are roughly $15. The only “problem” is that the cable clips where you connect the wire on the back of the speaker is so small that I had to flatten the 16 gauge wire to insert it to clamp down. The included remote easily allows me to change the input and volume, so I never have to touch the TV remote. There are “two” different menus you wind up using when setting it up. I knew what I was getting into when I purchased this.
When they once again come available I will be purchasing the Klipsch Surround 3 speakers and stands for this system. I’m confident they will provide excellent 5. The higher frequencies are well represented in this system, at least to my untrained ear. The low end is pretty amazing and will rattle your windows or your neighbor’s windows if you’re not careful. Getting a balance established isn’t as easy as it could be.
The one place where the JBL home theater system didn't excel was surround sound. Even though there were speakers surrounding our listening panel, most of the reviewers felt as if the front-left and front-right speakers were doing all of the work. There is a scene our reviewers watched where motorcycles surround the main character in the movie. Sound should project from all of the speakers and immerse viewers with surround sound. Instead, the front-left and front-right speakers were doing the majority of the audible lifting. Use the wired control center to control volume and bass levels or connect headphones to enjoy your games and music privately.
For example, sometimes audio cuts out ever so briefly and I’m not sure if this is an issue with the bar itself or just interference from the wireless items in my house. Regardless, this doesn’t happen often and I can easily go 3-4 hours watching things without it happening. 1, Unless your refrigerator, stove, light switches, and toilets are all Internet connected through your Google Home account, you should probably not purchase this sound bar.
The bass is fully adjustable and one button resets it to the factory setting. The down firing subwoofer is the tech used in MUCH higher priced systems and it was a big reason for my buying Klipsch. One button on the remote will cut out most of the bass and significantly enhance the voice frequencies. You don’t want a lot of bass when watching the evening news, for instance. Not to mention some people just don’t like the rumble of loud bass, so having a button on the remote to cut it way down is a very good thing. It provides a marginally wider sound stage and I don’t use it.
The remote was very large, didn’t have a screen on it , and didn’t feel like it would survive long before pieces of it breaking. It also lacks the technology that it should have, especially for the money. I am still not sure if this is a Windows 10 issue or a Vizio issue. But there is no issues with audio quality other than the short delay after a pause or at the start of a video/song/movie. I can live with that as I am not an overly picky person.
Since discharged speakers can be used if plugged in, this will avoid having to remove them from speaker stands or if you forget to charge them. For me, this has always bothered me because it can lead to an unappealing living room, aesthetically. There is something so awesomely futuristic about how the rear speakers connect wirelessly and also how great the whole setup manages to sound.
