I have two of them. They are fantastic for the price. Dtsx and atmos capable. They're not going to compete with high end bars that have true up fire speakers but you still get virtualized surround and a GREAT center channel that works with adaptive fit sound. Forget Alexa feature because it will basically deafen you in the middle of the night if you try using it(Alexa sucks anyway). Loss and mids are also great, music, movies. Not THUMP, but tight response. You will not find many that compete at 100 bucks. You can add sub and surrounds but I did not feel them necessary. This is an honest opinion.
I wouldn't use this with my tv but it ended up being great as a computer speaker for me. It's relatively compact and fits under my monitor riser. Significantly better than my old computer speakers. One note is that the hdmi is ARC only so hdmi in from computer doesn't work. I have optical out on my mobo, which works great for me
Received this last month for $88, it's about what the price should be. Nothing to brag about and sucks on Bluetooth.

Anyone have experience with this? Reviews on amazon dont looks particularly good. Thinking about it for my folks who still are using tv speakers. They probably wouldnt care about it being super great audio but i want it to be fool proof for setup and usage.

I had it and didn't like it. I prefer the TCL 3.1.2 from Walmart.

Got this when it was $90. Replaced my Samsung HW-MS650 and accompanying sub.

Love this thing. Great audio and good bass for a speaker without a sub. I have it set up with a Samsung TV and use their Q-Symphony. The Atmos stuff is definitely marketing and nothing more (I have a true Atmos setup in my home theater and this is nothing like it), but the sound sounds rich and full. Well worth $100.

I have this and recently it says "Network Disconnected" or something like that each time I turn it on and it's annoying as heck.

I bought this during the last $88 sale and my TLDR is this is just like TV speakers but louder.

It is also lacking mids and bass and hard to tell what audio adjustments are. For example you press the settings button and it says "Treble" then you click up or down, but no way to tell how many steps there are or when the treble is min/max. The virtual surround sound is barely there, sadly the sound is so flat you won't notice it unless you're watching heavy action movies coded in Atmos. As others have mentioned the Atmos is pure marketing, there is no surround sound effect whatsoever.

I also bought the Verizon Stream Bar (w B&O sound), the sound bar has built in Android TV and the mid bass is slightly better, the only thing I don't like is no way of wall mounting it. If I can't figure out a way to mount it, I may return it as well. I found this refurbished on eBay for $90
