TCL- I really enjoyed it!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is the first TCL product I have owned. At first glance, this is the type of speaker I have just seen for the first time with an elongated but quite compact design. My husband installed it quite quickly. There are many ways for you to install it: on the wall, on a flat surface... but I choose to put it on a flat surface near the TV as a decoration, it looks very luxurious in the living room. The speakers easily connect wirelessly to each other, making the bass even deeper so my family can comfortably enjoy bass-heavy music genres to the fullest. Good sound filtering ability, Dolby Audio helps sound clearer. Most noise is eliminated. The manufacturer ships the controller with 2 AAA batteries, information is clearly displayed and you can easily control power volume, Bluetooth and sound modes quickly and easily. In addition, anyone can set up connections to use the speakers for their entertainment needs. As you can see, this speaker is covered with a fancy and luxurious lead black paint. I really enjoyed it!

Perfect sounbar with nice sound, but...

The S55H music system has a soundbar and a subwoofer. But the bass is only reproduced by the subwoofer. If the subwoofer is turned off, the soundbar has no bass, only mids and highs. I also own an S45H (without a subwoofer). According to the documentation, the S55H and S45H are exactly the same, the only difference is in the subwoofers. The S45H plays bass very well. Why is this sound quality not preserved in the S55H soundbar body? Sometimes, for example, in the evening, I don't want to have strong bass tones from the subwoofer, because they disturb my family and neighbors. Is it a defect in my piece or is it a bug/feature? (maybe firmware or internal construction without a bass reflex)?

Great support

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The agent, Ran, helped me work through the issues getting the Dolby Atmos sound to work correctly. It took a little while, but we finally figured out that the TV needed to be set correctly before the sound bar was plugged in.

Nice but has quirks.

Purchased this along with a TCL Q6 Google smart tv. Pairing sub with the soundbar did not automatically occur - but there was a fix in the literature on how to get it to pair. There is no treble or bass control on the soundbar - you have to down load an app in order to control the treble and bass. Also the touch controls on the top of the bar are very quirky - one would expect as soon as you touch or press the on icon it would turn on - not so. same with the blue tooth synch button on top - does not automatically light up. Oddly, it appears you can slide your finger across from the power icon to the Bluetooth - this doesnt seem to be right. Of course the manual has little info on it and contacting the offshore people at tcl and speaking with a CSR who doesnt know anything and puts you on hold for 15 mins to ask about the issue - whats time. Perhaps this soundbar is defective? other soundbar owned your simply touch the icon and it turns on or you touch the Bluetooth and it lights to pair - this you literally slide across which is strange and I happened to do this by chance. Better comprehensive literature would be great. Also not Alexa compatible which is a disappointment. The TV is but cannot control the volume using the alexa word command to increse volume or decrease volume - all other commands work.

Soundscape for small space!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Nice sound upgrade for small space! I've previously onkh had built-in systems and a basic computer speaker set. It's easy to connect and use with multiple devices and works nice in 30m2 (330 sqft) space for music, gaming and movies! I'm definitely planning on getting a bigger audio system one day (5-piece or so) but this is definitely enough for a small space like this.

Intense

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is not the first sound bar that I've had but why was I impressed. I think that the dynamic Zone that this small little bar can produce is truly outstanding I wish I had more than just two channels but I think it does what it can with even this. I think that the sound quality is truly amazing it sounds better than the current one that I have which I paid way more than what this one is worth. I would definitely recommend this to everyone.

Not too bad

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This thing is pretty sweet for a lower end sound bar. Has a crisp sound and conneslcts flawlessly with both my phone and TV via Bluetooth. Not a bad option if you aren't trying to spend a ton of money.

Super, easy setup and great sound

I bought another vendor soundbar but couldn't get the bluetooth to work. I got the TCL and it worked perfectly right out of the box, no hard setup. I used HDMI/ARC to TV, and the base connects by bluetooth automatically. Sounds fantastic!!! In sum: Great price for such high quality sound, super easy to setup and use with a TCL TV. I love it! I am looking now to buy a second one :-).
