    I am amazed at how well the product is made, just magically!

    Good solution for watching movies and games. And stereo systems are made for music. With HDMI ARC on your TV, most of the disadvantages are irrelevant. The placement of the subwoofer makes a significant contribution to the overall sound picture, so I recommend experimenting. Pictured is a 43" TV.

    Pros
    • 1. Good balanced sound without noticeable frequency dips. Bass is soft. 2. Design - strictly and qualitatively. 3. The buttons on the panel itself are pleasantly pressed, although you don’t use them) 4. Dim indicators. 5. The dialogue highlighting function really works - speech is always clearly distinguishable. 6. A minimum of buttons on the remote control. 7. HDMI and optical cables included. True, Mi Box needed an adapter for mini TOSLINK. 8. Well transmits sound special effects in games and movies.
    Cons
    • 1. Does not turn on with the set-top box when connected via optics. 2. No HDMI input, only output, and I don't have HDMI ARC on my TV. Therefore, I connected it via optics, the sound is excellent, but see point 1. 3. The remote control is very easily soiled. Even if you don't use it.) 4. Often fonit when connected to a 3.5 mm jack. 5. Turns off after 15 minutes of no signal - frankly annoying. 6. There is no clear indication of the included modes and volume - only four flashing LEDs. 7. Stereo on musical compositions is not felt, the sound is exactly from the center.

    Excellent product, the best quality.

    There is surround sound, despite the fact that the system is 2.1, but this is revealed when the volume is turned on slightly above average. Got pros: The sound of the saunbar is very pleasant, I was especially pleased with the subwoofer, with its softness and unobtrusiveness. Has cons: The volume step, it feels like you are switching to two divisions at once.

    The right product for me, there were no problems.

    Room 22m2, apartment 45m2 turn on the power up to a maximum of 50%, the sound is enough for the eyes. Queen, B2, Nirvana are very nice to listen to. Through HDMI creates a single sound with the TV, the volume level is controlled from the TV. Some pros: Soft pleasant sound, lively as if you are sitting at a concert, no harshness in sound, easy to control Got cons: There is a little lack of high frequencies, but from what is on sale up to 25,000 there is nothing nearby in terms of sound quality.

    A good quality product, I rate this purchase perfectly.

    Reliable purchase, guaranteed to be a good purchase.

    A Denon receiver system and a set of Klipsch stereo speakers are just two of the many types of speakers that I've had in the past. And finally, some words of caution to everyone. You do not need to believe that in exchange for a small amount of money you will acquire a universal system that is adaptable to all of your needs. This approach works well for playing games and watching movies. It is not appropriate for use in music. This is not it, and even with the assistance of an equalizer I am…

    Pros
    • Sound of a high quality for movies and video games.
    Cons
    • After 15 minutes, the power will turn off by itself (I read about this in the reviews before buying). In my particular circumstance, this does not constitute a drawback but rather an annoyance. A television and a computer are both linked to the device in some way. When you begin doing something on the computer that does not include sound, such as starting a video, there is typically no sound until you switch on the system.

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    I definitely recommend buying, I didnt notice any disadvantages.

    Prior to that, I used an AUX cable to connect my Denon Cocoon Stream DSD-501 headphones to my sound system. When I first heard Coccon's music, I was disappointed since the bass sounded deeper, but after some time, I began to love the difference. The soundbar is, of course, confined to the theater experience. Of course not Dolby Atmos, but there was just no way to accomplish such a feat. The experience of watching films has significantly improved (I don't even talk about the fundamental…

    Pros
    • Definitely beats watching TV.
    Cons
    • It is not a multi-room, but this is over forty thousand dollars, and I have impudence at this price.

    The product is good, there are only a few minor flaws.

    It turned out that audiophile soundbars are considered plebeian "boxed" options, and they don't let customers listen to them before purchasing them. As a result, I purchased the Denon DHT-S316 Soundbar from the Audiomania store. When I went there, I had hoped to be able to "choose with my ears." They talked to me, explained me in words what it sounds like (skepticism), gave me a 5% discount (! ), and delivered it for free the following day in the rest of the places (the norms). The HDMI ARC…

    Pros
    • A reasonable amount of sound for the price. Ease of setup.
    Cons
    • The configuration of the inputs and outputs of the device, as well as the difficulties associated with the positioning of the connection.

    Revainrating 5 out of 5

    The perfect purchase for me, exactly what I was looking for!

    At first, I used a bar that was provided by LG sl 6y, and I was very dissatisfied with the sound. The bar itself played wonderfully and produced a sound that was very convincing, but the subwoofer made the bar sound like a dishonest liar. If we compare the sound of the bar denon with the lzh, then denon is superior in every possible way. The following are some favorable aspects: Obviously, the sound was something that appealed to me. The bar indicator clearly shows that this is an automatic…

    The best purchase in my life, I will definitely buy it again.

    Has some pros Looks stylish. Gave it to my husband for Christmas and he was very happy with it. The sound is really good when watching movies or listening to music. Of course, this is not for professionals / music lovers, but we are 100% enough for home use Has cons: Sometimes it "falls into a deep sleep"))) and when you turn on the TV you have to wait for the sound to appear (it's annoying))), but this is a minus for the picky, probably does not affect the functionality))

    Total disappointment, the product is terrible.

    Before that, there was a Yamaha yas 107, so it played better without a subwoofer (excluding deep bass) and was much more functional. If you want to take something worthwhile, take a look at the yamaha yas 209 or lg sn7y Pros: If it cost about 10 thousand, it would consist of nothing but virtues. Can be used as a bluetooth speaker for noise, not music. Cons: Appearance is the first thing that catches your eye. The design is frankly weak, looks cheap and awkward. If you have a desire to watch a…

    Not a bad product, quite normal quality.

    Its pros: 1. Sound is good, but directional 2. With bluetooth, everything plays from the phone without problems. Cons below: 1. Turns off after 15 minutes if there is no signal. those. I paused the movie, you come back in 20 minutes and you have to turn it on again. 2. No wall mount. those. while the panel itself is not available, you do not know what size and diameter to buy a bolt, self-tapping screw, etc. i put it on the telly

    I was surprised by the quality for this price.

    For watching movies - good quality at a reasonable price. Not suitable for listening to music, except modern. True, I compare it with an audio system slightly above the middle class, with a receiver, a CD player and monumental floor speakers. But the soundbar is not intended for music lovers. I recommend. Different pros: It sounds good, the bass is present, for movies it’s the most. Got cons: When listening via Bluetooth, the power turns off after a minute of listening, when it is turned on…

    It is of good quality, but I won't buy it again.

    Connected via HDMI, controlled from the TV. Turns on automatically when you turn on the TV. But sometimes it does not turn on, what is the reason for this is not clear. But you can turn it on through the TV menu, so it does not interfere much with enjoying good sound.

    Pros
    • Sounds great. Looks perfect.
    Cons
    • Sometimes it doesn't turn on automatically.

    Feel free to buy, for such a price, the quality is simply amazing.

    Having handed over the JBL Bbar 3.1 for repair, I began to look for something more budgetary, about 20,000. Again, after monitoring the market, there are different options for Sony, Samsung, LG, etc., there are also options for Yamaha and half-caudio, but without a subwoofer, so I refused them. After reading somewhere on the Internet about the Denon DHT-S316, I also thought about this option. There are practically no reviews, the model is new, and mentally I was not ready for low power after…

    • Sounds very nice and balanced.

    It's the best purchase I ever made, I will definitely do it again.

    Great stuff, didn't expect it. Just delighted. I wouldn't regret a bit if I bought it for myself instead of getting it as a gift. Got pros: Very good sound. I was given this soundbar for other purposes and I don’t know how the alternative options sound at this price, but I am 100% satisfied with this device. I connected to a Sony TV, which cost 100k a couple of years ago. It makes no sense to compare with TV speakers, a completely different level. Mainly used for movies and consoles. Completely

    Best product I have ever reviewed, I recommend it to everyone!

    Excellent build quality, all necessary cables except maybe aux included, compact package. For the price, this is a great deal. With its pros. Fast enough subwoofer bass, "rounded" punch, but no miracles here, an ordinary speaker, while it's quite booming, perhaps because the sub. located on the corner between the armrest of the sofa and the wall. The sound projector itself plays clean and spacious. Has cons: Does not show the volume not on the Samsung UE40MU6470U TV, not on the front panel…

    Perfect product for any user!

    I chose sambar for a long time, I looked at many selections and reviews in this area, the calculation for a budget of up to 35,000. I stopped at this model and brand, found a product in M. Video, came and listened 🔥 compared to Yamaha, Sony and JBL in this price range, I did not find analogues in terms of purity and volume of sound. It stands in a room of 38 sq. M., for watching videos and home parties I found what I wanted.

    Pros
    • Sound quality and build

    • Not found

    Best price for this product, will buy more!

    Great audio system! The best for your money. Pros below: The soundbar performs its functions 100%. 1. Very pleasant sound. "Delicate", as many correctly write. At first I wanted a soundbar with a built-in subwoofer, but after comparing them live, I realized that the subwoofer should be separate. Quite a different feeling. 2. Wireless subwoofer. 3. The soundbar is exactly as wide as a 40" TV with thin bezels. They seem to be made for each other :) 4. Divine minimalist design. Nothing to add…

    The quality exceeds all expectations, I recommend to buy.

    I bought it in aliexpress as a showcase sample - there was no HDMI cable and one power cable for the subwoofer in the kit, I bought HDMI separately, and the power cable is standard here, I have a lot of these lying around at home. Got pros: The sound quality is top notch for the price. Nothing sticks out or falls through. Compared to the sound of the TV - heaven and earth. Very juicy bass, especially if it is of high quality in the source video itself. Wireless subwoofer. It picks up all sound…
