Update

 

Sounded nice for a while

Update: The sound bar ran and sounded good for a few days, then it stopped responding to remote controls, either its own or the remote from Suddenlink

This was a Consumer Reports best buy, and it worked out for us. The sound is good and solid.

No cons. So far so good.

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Excellent sound ... EZ Set Up

 

Instead of the LED bars indicating the input source (which you need to memorize, it's not intuitive) , it would be better if it was a single digit LED (for example, 1 = Analog Audio #1, 2 = Analog Audio #1, 3 = Digital Audio #1, etc.)

Plenty of inputs ... 2 analog audio on, Bluetooth, Digital Optical ... using it as my primary speaker system for my cathedral ceiling great room. Hooked it up to an Airport Express for Airplay, my cable STB, and Bluetooth for phones and GoogleTV STB....

Bass (subwoofer) unit is a little large. Also, I have an FM radio antenna nearby , and it causes interference with off air FM radio. But, I think that is par for the course for a wireless Bass (Subwoofer) system. None of these are deal breakers ......
