Great sound with some flaws

Sound
Bluetooth
USB
Small display

A very nice audio set. The sound of which is also great. But this set also has its flaws. For example, the settings can only be seen via a small display on the sub woofer itself and no menu is visible or possible via the TV. This sometimes makes it a bit difficult in terms of ease of use. I think the extra possibilities to use bluetooth and USB are great. Especially if you want to control Spotify from your phone. Almost forgot, unfortunately the speakers are not wireless as I first expected/hoped. But overall a great set that you are constantly impressed with while watching a movie.

Shrill tinny noise

Little bass and the sound therefore sounds very cheap and tinny

Good set for an attractive price!

Good sound quality
deep bass
Easy to connect
Subwoofer shines a lot

I hear things in the sound that I haven't heard before! For example: I suddenly hear a lot more 'layers' in my music. Beautiful!
