I returned my Soundbar when the technician could not get it to work properly. He spent hours trying different things, finally suggesting I return it. I can live with the TV speakers for now.

Glad it worked out for you Mark.

I have soundbars on both of my TVs. Much better sound and both have the wireless subwoofers. Both match the TV manufacturer (LG and Samsung), and I prefer the LG as it's on the same frequency as the TV so one button turns on/off both. I also use both as bluetooth speakers for my iPhone.

The best improvement was my Dad's Vizio. His speakers were on the rear of the TV and it was loud if you were at an angle to the TV but not if you were directly in line with the TV. Even worse, the office/computer room right behind the TV it was louder coming through the drywall than it was in the TV room. I bought my Dad a Vizio sound bar with wireless subwoofers, and the sound is much clearer and best of all it's quieter throughout the house.

I like soundbars, especially in an area where you may not put in a full sound system (like a master bedroom) or just don't want to spend the money and time to install a surround system (couple of connections and the soundbar is done.) As stated they are much better than the TV speakers.

Our tv is in a cabinet. We finally sprung for a RCA at WM for $40 some dollars. Definitely helped. Wink

Got my wife's inlaw's one last weekend and installed it. It was around $80. They liked it. So yeah, they do help.
