Had a quick look around the Harvey Norman Outlet QV (on ground floor) and found this beauty. Would have bought if I hadn't already bought another Soundbar from a previous deal.

Don't have a picture sorry, will have to trust me on this one.

    Note COTD deal does not include shipping, think this is in store only.

    COTD deal was $198.95 with shipping (I bought one :). So the current deal is not too bad if you can pick it up.

  I'm interested to know how well those little subs work.

  Good price indeed but gets pretty mixed reviews. One review I just saw said that midrange (dialogue etc) was pretty muffled.

  At $198 this would be the best sound bar around in terms of audio quality and performance. Just make sure your telly is >= 55" or it kinda looks funny when the sound bar overhangs. IIRC they had (still have?) at Costco but I'm unsure of price point.

  I have one, it is perfect for me. Sound is great. Bass is great when turned up to full for movies and perfect for TV at half way. Though i am just the average user with no experience with this stuff…. I use a BENQ W1070 projector with a 80 inch screen.

  Emulates 7.1 channel surround for totally immersive audio

  Not sure how successful that's going to be with only optical input.

    One does not simply expect full surround sound from a Soundbar.
