Great sound quality and impressive volume, won't be quite as cinematic as speakers placed properly around a room but that's not what a soundbar is best for. ONE IMPORTANT NOTE FOR PURCHASERS: It has a loud activation sound that is on by default, each time it turns on it will speak the input method e.g. "HDMI ARC", and that announcement CAN be turned off so it isn't annoying. Hold the "Voice" button on the remote for 5 seconds and when it speaks, press the down button and that ON announcement will be muted. Can turn it back on the same way (pressing up) to hear it speaking input modes while switching.

Very good quality for a cheaper end product
