Good value, excellent support
By Mark Bradford on Reviewed in the United States on May 2, 2021
I replaced an Onkyo 5.1 surround sound system with this sound bar. The Onkyo was an older system, with wired speakers and the remote didn't work well. I had heard an amazing sound bar while in an AirBnB so I was convinced that the sound could be great (but unfortunately didn't note the model of the sound bar that impressed me so much). Anyway, I took a chance with this sound bar, given it's positive reviews, Dolby decoding, subwoofer and HDMI ARC to work with my TV. I'm not disappointed. It is not the "richest" sounding system, nor the most powerful, but it sounds good, the clarity is excellent, and although some channels require that we turn up the volume most of the way, I've never detected any distortion. We don't like overwhelming bass (nor overwhelming volume, for that matter), and the subwoofer is plenty for us - we actually have it notched down a couple of steps. The remote has some preset mixer settings - I don't notice a lot of difference between them, but we keep it in movie mode, as we are mostly watching show/movies with some Pandora music in between. You can separately adjust treble and bass up or down via the remote. The construction of both the sound bar and remote feels solid. We have only used this connected by HDMI to our TCL Roku TV and the connection works perfectly. It detects Dolby inputs, responds to the TV remote, and even responds to "Volume up/down" command to the TV via Alexa. (You do have to use the sound bar remote to set the input to HD mode when receiving from an HDMI source - and you may have to change the audio settings of your TV) The product has worked flawlessly so we didn't really need to contact the seller. But the product arrived with a surprise coupon to receive a free set of bluetooth earbuds. Unfortunately we couldn't get the associated website to accept our coupon code. Not a huge deal, but I wrote to the seller and was pleasantly surprised by their prompt responses. We could never get the website submission to work, so after a few message exchanges, the seller agreed to send us the earbuds based on our receipt and coupon code. They arrived a few days later. You may not get the same little present with your purchase, but the experience gave me a great deal of confidence in the seller. My only minor annoyance with the sound bar is the little LED display which shows indicates responses to any input, including from the TV (e.g. volume, starting a show, etc.). When acknowledging any new input, the display shifts to a super-bright annoying level for a few seconds. Bug the heck out of me so I put a couple layers of translucent tape over the display and all is well. Overall, a very nice product, good bang for the buck, and a reliable seller.

Wow, but bad.
By Ricketyrock on Reviewed in the United States on October 15, 2023
This soundbar is an awesome product for it's price range. It is loud, clear and really good bass. It connects easily, especially via optical. I bought this for my pop; his Samsung soundbar started malfunctioning. So for the low price, it fills his small living room with loud booming bass sound and clear dialogue. I think I'm going to buy one for myself. The only thing I'm not crazy about, is that the power cord is short and so is the subwoofer wire. And, that the sound is not as expansive as I think it should be. I think that's because it's only 16 inches wide. Still, for it's size, it really sounds good. UPDATED REVIEW 5/5/2024: While everything I wrote above still holds true- the sound, bass, etc.- it is unfortunate that the sound bar stopped working after only 6 months of moderate use. The soundbar would not respond to any command from the remote control or directly on the soundbar. I tried changing the remote-control batteries; unplugging the cables and power cord and reinserting everything but nothing worked. The sound bar sat on the shelf with a red power light on but no functional response. To make matters worse, I tried to contact Pheanoo manufacturer 3 times via email and received 0 responses. Eventually, after much back and forth with Amazon customer service I received a refund of my purchase price minus $12 (I'm not sure why). So, I kind of lost on this deal. Now I am without a soundbar. Buyer beware!
