Received in a beautiful package from + a month and permanent use .... Whether its difference with the flat screen TV! I happened to get up to open the front door thinking the doorbell or other sounds of real life, and noticed that the sound was coming from the program or movie. Really it me well enough for a "small price". What a comfort to no longer have to ask my wife "what he said, I did not hear !!!" and all this with the TV set to 0 volume, not for me that the sound bar coupled with the optical fiber cord on TV. I am using that setting volume of my LiveBox. So very happy with this purchase that is essential with a modern TV.
