[@jduffenais]

It is a pretty decent soundbar...my only issue with it is that even at level 1..it was too loud to sit and watch TV. We had to return it. Maybe it was faulty..not sure...but a movie sounded very nice on it.

[@mangakey]

Sound level in general is too high... But if anyone else having this issues using it in EARC mostly fixes this issue as it divides the volume levels by 3.. For some reason??? Either way offers more control than the soundbars volume levels...

[@cyrildominique3311]

​@@mangakeyexactly the same with EARC 😕 Does anyone knows how to fix it please ?

[@franksmith2997]

Install the latest firmware that fixed it for me

[@jimboscustoms]

I just picked this up I'm really impressed It's great for a small room and makes for a clean setup and for the price you can't beat it😎

[@wheelstandr]

I sincerely think you need an area rug and some room treatments. It's an echo chamber in there. Thanks for the demo.

[@KingXWuN]

I got this for about 79 bucks at Walmart. Small profile but sounds much bigger than it appears. Very bassy, which is good for some and not so good for others. Def not true Atmos or made for bigger areas but for a larger bedroom or living room it works great!

[@lifesabattle]

Just bought this and found it's sound in terms of vocal clarity and bass is decent for a relatively small room, however, just be aware that it's Dolby Atmos implementation - vertical dynamic dimensions of this sound bar is very limited, i.e., don't expect watching videos with eArc/Dolby Atmos audio project helicopters sound flying overhead, as may be compared to higher end sound bars with good vertical sound engines/drivers.

[@petertaylor3446]

Thanks for the review bro, I've just ordered one

[@Ryaniwk]

Glad you like it, mate. Thanks for watching!

[@DarrenE1991]

Big mistake or......? Curious as looking at the Poseidon one for 230 and 5.1 *Atmos* but it doesn't support Atmos at all. It doesn't even say Atmos on it since it's their own virtual bs so I have read. I'm going on what's said online but what do U think?

[@petertaylor3446]

@@DarrenE1991 well since posting I tried updating via USB dongle and it's died, tried using their online help site.. Useless avoid at all costs

[@petertaylor3446]

@@DarrenE1991 did have good sound when it worked, but very bass heavy that's why I tried the update, won't even power up now

[@Diamond-Fox60]

Good video man! Can you tell me the model of your HDTV please? Looks Fantastic.

[@Ryaniwk]

Thanks mate. The tv is an old Samsung NU558500

[@cryptofugazi9600]

Thanks for this video I’m in the market to upgrade my Sony A1 oled tv sound . This video really helps and the price of it is even better in these cost of living crisis times. Amazing !

[@Ryaniwk]

Thanks for watching and for the feedback

[@rexbitten]

I couldn't find a way to still use headphones to watch TV late at night like before I had the soundbar from time to time (I'm having to utilize the auxillary out of the TV for the soundbar). Any suggestions?

[@ChadWorthman]

You should still be able to pair Bluetooth headphones with the TV itself?

[@TobinPT]

i have a TV that has Atmos, but it has ARC and not eARC, will i have the Atmos experience?

[@adriennesmith2133]

No. According to the instructions you need eArc.

[@TobinPT]

@@adriennesmith2133 First of all thanks for your feedback. But in that case, if my TV says it has Atmos, why shoudnt work??

[@kolad264]

Only work with eArc

[@jamesfield1674]

try using a 2.1 hdmi cable

[@chrisgraham9194]

Thank you for your review. I would have been happier if the bass settings worked.

[@allkatraze5354]

Hello, is it possible to you use it without the subwoofer ?

[@TX010]

Thanks mate! Great review 👍👌💪

[@Ryaniwk]

Thank you, mate! Thanks for your support!

[@ralphmouth4280]

Good review very informative.

[@Ryaniwk]

Thanks for watching and for your support

[@skarecro7916]

Is there any way to connect to a tv without eARC and just regular hdmi ports?

[@Jatteks]

can i connect these to another sound bar like 3.1 subwoofer soundbar jbl

[@RockinJohnnyaitken]

I have the D60 my only gripe is I can't get sound out from tvs rarc to the D60s earc. Turning the tv vol off dosent help and turning earc on

[@mangakey]

I had one but I ended up returning it's great for the price.. Small form factor with big sound and bass.....however the bass is too high.. The presets are too few and don't offer enough control. You have game,music, movie.... Game was the lowest bass so I used that... Bass as 3 levels (-1,0,1) I used -1... and that's it that is the lowest you can turn the bass down and it's still pretty up there.... With me mostly watching TV shows I needed some thing with clear voice so I can listen to dialogue... This system be great if give you better control of bass and vol but something tells me "they would have if you could have" and it's a hardware limitation...given it's small form factor and cost...

[@bnewson33]

Do you think this will work with an lg ultragear monitor? Mine doesnt have earc just 2 hdmi 2.1 ports? So connect ps5 to monitor hdmi 1 and Soundbar bar to hdmi 2,or will i need an e arc splitter? Can het this £100 today . The latest model coming is £165 that comes with surrounds. On pre order now.

[@kolad264]

Its no dolby atmos with my lg nano earc tv. I hove to return

[@bnewson33]

@kolad264 Waiting for the Nova S80 5.1.2, coming out next month. The Bar has upfiring speakers, so should be their best system so far ,£240.

[@DavidSitoula]

Does it work with the normal hdmi port? My tv doesn't seem to have earc. Just normal hdmi ports..

[@skarecro7916]

Same question

[@stevemcintosh2045]

Great review. Thankyou 👍

[@Ryaniwk]

Thanks for your feedback, Steve! :)

[@cinemaboss291]

So if I have an ARC setup it probably won't go well with it?

How the sound for gaming 🤔

[@kevinmdujnic1976]

does anyone else have the same problem as me ? the top of the soundbar on the Nova S50 gets really warm to hot when in use no matter how I have it hook up .....

[@Dabal_R]

Can we use this soundbar with phone to listen music?

[@abbeygallepersonal]

Does the led panel at the front of the bar stays always on?

[@Ryaniwk]

Nope. It turns off after a while

[@YoureNotSoSmartBro]

Thanks bro. I got a soundbar sub combo on the cheap. First review I watched of this similar item was complete ass. This one gives me more confidence in the quality of what I just bought lol.

[@Ryaniwk]

Thanks, mate! :)

[@cefvelasco7200]

how would you compare this to s40

[@_.Onizuka._]

is it only for small tvs? i got a 55 inch tv. maybe not good enough? only for smaller ones?

[@Ryaniwk]

My tv (the one in this video) is 55 as well. I think it works very well in my honest opinion.

[@_.Onizuka._]

@@Ryaniwk are u still using it for u 55 tv? or something else? and im not sure to buy this one for my 55 inch tv or the creative stage v2. do u know something about that one? maybe u know which one is better. Size is much longer and 30-40 $ cheaper. 🤔🤔

[@joshriley3867]

​@@Ryaniwkwhat about for a 65"? It feels like it would look comically small in comparison

[@adriennesmith2133]

No. I have a tcl 55 inch. It works fine.

[@matthewmccraney1783]

I just got this. I don't get any kind of Atmos. I have tried everything. Do y'all get Atmos??

[@simonhazel1636]

so a couple things you can only get atmos through hdmi. bluetooth, optical and Aux won't work. if your TV has Hdmi Arc you can only get dolby digital plus with atmos. if your TV has Earc the you can use truehd with atmos - just note that you'll need a device that supports playing truehd content (blueray player, xbox series s/x, ps5, nvidia shield, dune android TV box

[@kolad264]

I conected with my xbox and no dolby atmos go in my soundbar ??

[@rajeevratan2019]

Thanks Arnold!

[@Ryaniwk]

Hahahaha no problem 😅

[@alanpaola5266]

Maybe it sounds well because is wired ...the subwoofer!

[@petnicleo]

How watt?

[@petnicleo]

I can't find the wattage for this soundbar anywhere

[@Ryaniwk]

I confirmed with ULTIMEA, the RMS power is 60W, peak power is 160W, of the set.

[@nicleopet7742]

Potenza da 60 o 160 w non capisco?

[@IAmKAZMO]

Truth of the matter is, you need Hardware for Dolby Atmos. Ceiling Speakers and surround speakers with a specific device that is tuned to that particular array and even the room you're in matters ... We're talking 7.3.2. sound... to achieve true DA. Til then it's an upmixed 2.1 and the Spatiality gimmick is not Atmos, it's just mono, flattening the curve into loudness. I like anything tech that punches above it's weight.... Good Find.!🤔

[@nicleopet7742]

Che vol dire potenza e da 60 w o da 120w?

[@Ryaniwk]

I confirmed with ULTIMEA, the RMS power is 60W, peak power is 160W, of the set.

[@ritterIII]

Komme nicht klar mit der Soundbar. Viel zu laut in der niederen Einstellung. Sehr dumpfer klang bei Sprache.

That's something you buy for a kids room or a pc setup. If you think that's bassy try listening to a paradigm psw 1000 subwoofer 😂

Dous it go loud enough to piss the neighbours off ? Because that's the type I want 😂 not for that just really loud. Isit loud ?

[@Ryaniwk]

😂😂 unless you have a super sound insulation where you live, it will piss the neighbours off for sure!! For the price of this kit it is loud!! Super bassy as well
