Issues:
Sub connects when it wants, how it wants randomly
Entire speaker bar makes sound 85% of the time. Randomly doesn't, no reason why. Forced to hard reset the speakers, repair with media center...
Duck this piece of trash.
Ohh and Bluetooth.... Hahahahaha lolololol 😂😂😂😂😂 its a joke, you literally have to have your phone withing ONE FOOT or it disconnects.
Don't do it. I'll be fighting with Klipsch when i get time for a refund, i will not accept a replacement.
Garbage.

I mean it's a bedroom, don't want it to be super loud or anything.

From x2ox2o "The Cinema 700 and 800 are the same sound bar, but the 700 is fully covered in mesh while the 800 has exposed horn tweeters. I believe the 700 was a Costco/warehouse exclusive.
I have the Cinema 800 with the additional rear surrounds, and let me start by saying the sound bar sounds incredible.
Getting it all working properly, however, was a pretty big headache. The firmware version that came on mine was old enough that it didn't support OTA updates, I had to manually update. During the manual update process, there are 3 separate files you need to flash using the upgrade procedure. You can't do them together so it needs to be one by one. After all that, one of the updates wouldn't take so I had to email support for a special version of the firmware to flash.
Before the firmware updates, the sound bar would constantly pop and cut in/out, or would get stuck in standby mode until I power cycled. After the updates, everything works phenomenally and it truly is a great sound bar.
I would recommend this to anybody comfortable enough to deal with firmware flashing, as it is a great price for the performance level. If you're the type that just wants to plug something in and never touch it again, this probably isn't the one for you. Knowing everything I went through to get mine working, I'd still buy it again."
