I purchased this set shortly after I purchased a new Samsung 65" TV to replace one that stopped working. The built-in speakers of the new TV were a disappointment, especially the poor quality of human voices. My hearing is not as good as it once was and I often struggled to catch every word being spoken.
Got this because the speakers on my old Sony TV in my bedroom were dying. I'm using a Dish Joey for my video source. Once I figured out that the Toslink is a simple push in, and there is a top and bottom so orientation is important. Got things sorted out, powered up the sound bar, the tv, and the Joey, muted the TV and off we go. To me the remote isn't intuitive and the options on the sound bar are limited, hey it's inexpensive can't expect too much, the sound is acceptable and way clearer than my TV ever was Size was perfect to fit in the cabinet. The Dish controller easily set up to operate both the soundbar and the TV as well as the Joey, the default settings worked fine. I'd recommend this if you want basic 2.0 sound.
