For good soundstage, the speakers need to be further apart than a soundbar allows
For good bass, a speaker needs to be bigger than a soundbar allows
For good surround sound, the speakers need to surround you (hence the name).
It's like using a swiss army knife's "saw" blade to cut 2x4's - will the wood be cut? maybe. will it be a clean cut? probably not. Is it efficient? no. Will you be happy with the results? No.
There are really good surround sound speakers and receivers available for a couple hundred more than this (combined), and you will be infinitely happier.

But the problem is my receiver now broke and I was using it oon an elite monitor so I can't even use it now since it has no onboard audio. lol.
But anyway my point is yes I know ideally you'd want a whole set of speakers instead, but for my situation my soundbar has been good, so I am frustrated that so many bad reviews make me assume current tech may be even worse than my old tech.
For instance... tom's hardware said some certain brand (I forget the name, as it's rarely mentioned in soundbar lists) sound bar was great. I then looked on rtings and sure enough it said it is great too. For the main thing i care about, dialogue, it said excellent.... THEN right after saying excellent dialogue, it said it has high latency! I dunno how anyone can rate anything at all excellent if it has a big audio delay! Also my yamaha has a setting to fix that.
