I went the traditional route of Receiver + Stereo speakers for our big room TV.
Already been through this on an older post.

I bought and returned the soundbar.
The audio was pretty awful.
The Sub is Wireless over bluetooth and you have to fiddle around with a delay setting to get the sub and speaker in sync.
I attached it via the HDMI ARC connection and the soundbar would start with about 5 minutes of noise while it warmed up after turning on the power.
hmm, there seemed to bit quite a few others in that post that bought it and have said rather positive things…? Wonder if yours was a dud or if you're more of an audiophile than them?
Agree. Dupe.
Warning: I bought the unit from the last post. Im no sound snob but to me it sounds good. HOWEVER, the bluetooth connection to my android would go bad after say 10-15 min, constantly dropping in and out. i tried other android phones and had same problem. Only found one other person on net with similar problem, so figured it was a dud unit.Tried updating software and factory reset etc to no avail. Took unit back to Harvey Norman, they were pretty good, they did ask to check it out and luckily the connection was bad from the get go so didnt have to wait the 10-15 min. Anyway was given a brand new one (with new receipt). Came home and SAME PROBLEM. I did however send in 2 x cashback claims and got paid both so unit cost me 50 bucks, but still shitty i cant stream music via bluetooth, i guess will take back again before warranty runs out or when i get around to it. Its weird it happened on both units though I havent heard many others complain about it?
Definitely weird since I always use mine for Bluetooth and it works fine
I was ready to pull the trigger on this model cause of the cashback, went to Bing Lee yesterday to have a play and I was underwhelmed with the sound quality.
