sound bar

I am looking for thoughts and comments on these three LCR passive sound bars. We are designing a home theatre system in a new house that requires us to use a sound bar (its being mounted over a fireplace and the fireplace is surrounded by windows) and I have narrowed down our choices to these...

So I have a LG Soundbar LAS550H, the wireless subwoofer is not turning on, I opened it up, there was a T5AL250VP fuse in the board which burnt as it was all black, I changed it but still the subwoofer wont power on. I want to know if I can add any other subwoofer by using some receiver or HDMI...

We recently upgraded our home theater system to an OLED TV and sound bar. The problem is chronic lip sync issues. The issue is noticeable on Xfinity cable broadcasts and Apple TV (Amazon & Netflix), though the issue varies from network to network. Some networks, e.g., ABC, are worse than others...

New guy here with what may be an odd request. I have a Polk bar with Bluetooth satellite speakers in the living room I use for listening to both music and TV/movies. But my concern here is with spoken lines in movies and TV shows. Dialogue in current programming and movies is often overridden...

Hi there, does any one have experience with these sound bars? Samsung HW-Q90R 7.1.4 vs Klipsch BAR 48 5.1 I’m looking for a sound bar with wireless speakers and sub for living room TV for watching movies, TV, playing games and listening to music. My place is open concept, the idea is that this...

Sound bar question (yes, I know which forum I'm at...): has anyone here upgraded from Vizio's sb3621n-e8 or sb3621n-f8m to one of their 5.1 sound bars (such as sb3651-f6). If so, how well do their satellite speakers work? Do they add a worthwhile surround improvement? And are the sound bar and...

Just bought a sound bar only to discover that my TV has no audio out. It only has components, audio in, HDMI in, and a USB. Is there any way I can connect the sound bar to any of those ports?

I’ve been watching some YouTube reviews of some sound bars with dolby atmos and it seems pretty cool. I’m wondering about a few things... If you’re not a huge audiophile, will it sound just as good or better than an average 5.1 system? Or will separate speakers always still be better than 1...

I purchased this very nice entertainment system for my new TV and it has this cutout for a sound bar. Since I have tower speakers and didn't like looking at that empty space I built a "fake" sound bar. Cheesy or not?

Hi, I bought a AV receiver(Pioneer VSX-323-k) with 5.1 sound system. I have connected the speakers. I don't have any televison and I want to use it with my laptop and monitor. I'm connecting my laptop with HDMI cable and the monitor with audio cable. But for some reason I'm not getting sound...

After using the same four speakers for 40 years (yes, you read that right), I've decided to go with an updated surround sound system. I've been looking at the VIZIO SB3851 38-Inch 5.1 Channel Sound Bar as it's in my price range. Has anyone had any experiences with this model? Since I'm new to...

This is something that is perplexing me. I understand that if the content is in surround sound then the left, right and center speaker will each play what they are supposed to, but what if the content is mono or stereo? One day I was listening to music when I realized how off it sounded. It...

Last spring in an effort to keep the other half happy as we redecorated our living room I decided to redo the A/V system in our living room and try to make it less intrusive. The system I configured was: Yamaha RX-S600 5.1 receiver (1/2 height) 70" Sharp Aquos LC70TQ15U Samsung Blu-Ray BD-D5700...
