i bought this soundbar several years ago so i could have the center channel for dialog. it didn’t work and i attributed that to my old toshiba tv. i recently bought a samsung au8000 tv hoping to finally get real surround support, center channel support, and audio control from the tv. unfortunately, the soundbar just doesn’t work with arc or earc. the tv reverts back to tv speakers and says that an arc device is not connected. so, now i am stuck with an optical connection and disappointing audio performance lacking center channel clarity :(. upgrading the sw in the soundbar didn’t resolve the problem.

I bought this soundbar a couple of days ago is connected to my Xbox One via Optical Audio cable. For some reason no matter if I turn the volume down or up after about a minute or two it keeps defaulting the volume back to 54. It’s really annoying and loud. Could anyone help please?

So Good I Bought Another One

I already owned this soundbar with the rear speakers. Just purchased another TV and was looking to upgrade the sound with a soundbar. My first choice was this unit based on how great the first one was. I thought about holding off and waiting for the Atmos units to drop in price. Only the newest content is Atmos capable so why pay extra for that feature. There are a couple of things that make this soundbar stand out versus many of its competitors. First is that it has 2 speakers per channel instead of a single speaker which give better clarity. The second is that it has the center channel which delivers great dialouge allowiing the the outer speakers to deliver a better stereo experience. The soundbar is well made. The subwoofer may not shake the lamps but does give sufficient rumble as needed. The overall volume is very good for watching movies.

Bought this a year ago and I've used it almost every other day. I can say that on my Vizio TV, this soundbar is horrible. No bass at Max sub and bass volume, set to supported formats, everything. Even tried using DTS on it and made no difference. Surround would come out at random, it was just a bad experience. I couldn't return it because of billing issues because of Best buy. As of now, I decided to give my parents the soundbar on their Samsung 8000 series TV. It works a whole lot better and actually sounds great. That's where the problem is. It's one of those products that "function better" in the Samsung ecosystem. It's scummy to have a product perform considerably worse on a competitors product than your own. Also, plastic subwoofer enclosure? Really? For 400$?
