great sound but finicky
Reviewed on www.walmart.com·Ben
I highly recommend this setup. I give it an 8/10 overall and a 10/10 considering it's price point. If that's all you wanna know skip the rest of this review lol. \n\nI love the easy set up. The mounts are easy to place. You have to take the placeholder screws out and add longer screws and the plastic mounting washer. Once that's done though the soundbar just snaps down into place. There is no mount for the satellite speakers, so have some sort of shelf or mount ready. They have a hole on the back for a screw type mount like cameras have for a tripod I think. I ended up buying some affordable mainstay brand shelves myself.\n\nSetup with my TV was seamless. The included HDMI cable attached to my TV ARC hdmi port and immediately worked to control volume through the TV remote. Getting the sound right proved to be harder than one would think with its simple led light based interface. I set the treble, bass, and bass boost where I thought they should be but would get inconsistent results. I think the issue stems from watching 4K content that has 7.1channel audio. It would be too quiet with that content and I'd have to turn on DTS-Tru Volume, and then turn it back off and turn the volume higher when watching regular content with 5.1 audio.\n\nStill for the price it's worth a little work. Some people may not notice the audio differences. I'm in a small man-cave and I'm close to all the speakers so it makes a bigger impact. The soundbar is loud and precise. I never have difficulty hearing voices and despite the overall volume difficulty the volume balance between bass, vocals, and surround sound is clear and precise. The 5" subwoofer is down firing and amazingly loud. I need a small rug to place under it because it echoes off the wood floor a bit.\n\nOverall I love this system. 8/10 and would definitely recommend.

Reviewed on www.walmart.com·Richard
I really haven't had this product for too long. Hasn't even been a year yet so far I am impressed with the sound quality. It does sound good. I use it for an outdoor television or a gazebo. It is covered and protected from the elements but so far, it sounds good and I can hear it over the traffic. We'll see how well it works after a year cause I had the other speaker system from another company for a year before the woofer decided to stop working, but so far so good.

Great noise and features, it pairs well with a TCL TV. Best sound I've had from a soundbar. Installation was very simple and the sub connected automatically. Love that your TV remote automatically pairs to the system.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pros: easy to use, works well, easy to hook up, wireless subwoofer, high quality, customizable audio options, long speaker cords\r\n\r\nCons: none\r\n\r\nThe TCL 5.1 Channel Soundbar with Wireless Subwoofer and wired Surround Sound Speakers is really nice! This system is easy to set up, easy to use, and it works well. Once unpacked, all you have to do is setup the wireless subwoofer by connecting each of the surround sound speakers to it and then connecting the power cord. Then connect the sound bar to the TV via the HDMI cord and then plug the power cord into the sound bar. Once both are connected and plugged in you can add batteries to the remote and then turn it on. The subwoofer is wireless and automatically connects to the sound bar, which is super nice. When I turned on the TV while connected to the sound bar, it automatically prompted me to setup the sound bar. This made it effortless to connect it to the TV.\r\n\r\nI had zero issues connecting the theater system to my TV. It can also be used with a Bluetooth device to stream music from which I absolutely love! It’s also super easy to find via Bluetooth and connect to it. The remote is straightforward to use as well.\r\n\r\nThe overall sound quality is really nice! Everything is crisp and you can change the preset modes based on what you’re watching or listening to. There are also multiple options to customize the audio as well. All are super easy to do from the remote.\r\n\r\nAll in all, this is a really nice home theater system! It’s very easy to hook up and use, and it works extremely well! I am super happy with the quality and how user-friendly it is! I would absolutely recommend it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Easy set up, I like how small the subwoofer is to be honest. Alot of the subwoofers out there are massive but this one is nice and compact and still powerful. I hooked the sounder up to the TV then plugged the surround sound speakers into the subwoofer then the subwoofer into the wall and it was all connected. And it sounds amazing, I sometimes forget we now have surround sound and get freaked out hearing something behind me while sitting on the couch! \r\n\r\nI only have two minor complaints, one is that it doesnt come with mounting hardware for the surround sound. That's annoying, but I wouldn't have knocked a star off just for that. However, the remote is super basic and you can only control the soundbar with it, and even then it doesnt tell you on the soundbar what's what. You have to memorize the guide to know what each color means. My old soundbar I could turn the TV on and off with the remote and change inputs so it was kind of disappointing to see I couldn't even turn the TV on with this one. \r\n\r\nOverall... I would recommend. My complaints are super minor and won't stop me from using it. I just felt that I needed to share in case someone out there would be bothered by that.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This TCL S Series 5.1 Channel Sound Bar with DTS Virtual: X, Built-in Center Channel Speaker, Surround Sound Speakers and Wireless Subwoofer is excellent! Like most modern TVs, my TVs sound quality wasn't great. I can't stress enough how much better this sound system has made my home entertainment experience. I didn't know what I was missing. I no longer have to have the television volume turned all the way up to hear. No more dealing with muddled speech on my favorite movies, and television shows! I no longer need my closed captions on! The sound bar with DTS Virtual: X, Built-in Center Channel Speaker, alone is great, combined with the Surround Sound Speakers and Wireless Subwoofer, it's truly an excellent, immersive experience. Amazing sound clarity, warmth, and quality. I feel like I'm at a private concert when I stream my favorite music over Bluetooth. Setup with my TCL Roku smart TV was easy. Just make sure to plug the connection into the designated HDMI port. The only flaw I've found is, the sound bar blocks my remote signal to my TV. The included IR passthrough cable didn't work for me. It was an easy fix though, I just pulled the sound bar away from the TV an inch so my remote worked. I highly recommend this sound system!

The surround sound is amazing. I got up twice to see if it was raining outside not realizing it was the little speaker behind me. The bass is not the sonic boom but it is sufficient. I find I have to turn it down when watching sports. Overall, I would recommend it.

Good quality for small sound bar
Reviewed on www.walmart.com·SecretShopper
Especially for the price, it's a great, loud and booming entry level sound bar w/surround. Since most streaming content only sends stereo sound, you'll want to turn the DTS off to get much skins from the surround speakers. But good DTS content comes from all around as expected, and a good bass. Tested much of the features to get the best sound for my full size living room, not an apartment. This does the job for me for now vs my old system, whose old speakers and bass had begun to get cranky sounded at high volumes at times.

I really like this surround sound system. It gives me all the joy and excitement of sitting in a real theater. The only con, if you can really call it a con, is the fact that, the bass doesn't completely blow me away. It may be a thing I have for bass. But this system delivers! I totally recommend this system. The picture I included only shows the sound bar pretty good. The system as a whole is awesome!

Quality Sound
Reviewed on www.walmart.com·Sound bar
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This sound bar is a game changer. It is slim and fits anywhere. Comes with two speakers that you can mount anywhere. When watching a movie, you feel like you are in a movie theater. Such great quality and sound. I highly recommend. The sound is clear. No crackling. The sound is so clear, that I was watching a movie, and in the movie someone rang the doorbell and I jumped up and opened my door to then realize it was coming through the speaker. This is the best sound bar system I have owned.
