0:06 OMG I haven't heard that sound in DECADES!!! I got INSTANT goosebumps lol. I may get these speakers to replace my current speakers that I bought in 2010.

How is surrounding effect 10fest × 15fet room ? We feel surroundings ?

[@TheLivedeath]

Can you get Dolby Atmos if you plug in a FireStick to your TV and use HDMI ARC. Or do you need to plug it in to the soundbar HDMI port itself?

[@cheeks3211]

creative stage 360 is discounted on creatives site for $159 at that price its a steal.

[@amarg2199]

wow under 200 dollars

[@ProjectPewgf]

I got this for £150 but its gone back up to £200 glad I caught the deal, it will feel even sweeter price wise if it sounds perfect 👌

[@iamdansimons]

@@ProjectPewgf How are you finding the sound for TV and music? And where did you pick it up for £150, new? 😮

[@Nevarden]

I returned it, some trance tracks sounded excellent and some too busy no way to turn the sub bass down any further then 5 increments max (sounded too bass heavy and not enough punch/ dynamics) it was super annoying so i returned it within a week and went for Creative soundstage SE instead for £54 its much tiny only 16bit 44hz but this thing rocks, perfect setting is with Dialogue enhancer on to bring out the mids more on & + 2 treble (surround sound is also good time to time depending on the recording with above eq helps widening the soundstage/depth even more and slightly more punchy but gives me tinnitus as it throws the frequency everywhere kinda like dolby atmos you on android phone). Surround sound mode + Dialogue enhancer + 1 or 2 on treble is perfect for netflix/ films etc For high def stuff I also purchased a second hand Panasonic soundslayer dolby atmos bar for £150 off amazon (with no upfiring speakers but its officially licensed and does sound dolby enough) it has optical input as well so I use a ldac bluetooth reciver which is powered by its own USB slot which gives me 24bit/96khz music streaming as this sound bar supports upto 192khz but ill never go above 96khz/24bit (I use it with Dialogue enhancer and surround/3d off unless I'm watching dolby atmos or 5.1 content then I might use surround/3d as well if it sounds like objects are flying across the sound field) sometimes this soundbar is not as clear on lower volumes at late night so I picked up a portable Bluetooth speaker by Soundcore motion 300 and when I use its voice mode it sounds clean super crystal clear both male / female speech and for music it supports bluetooth ldac 24/96khz highress too so currently only using this for streaming music & witching netflix etc).
