I may not have a sound professional, but the quality of this soundbar was not sufficient for me. The sound is all right, when the subwoofer has been switched on. For me, however, was the test, alone the Soundbar - to operate to the sound could be heard - without a subwoofer. Once the subwoofer is no longer active, the speakers in my TV sounded better than the Soundbar. Then I might as well join a pure subwoofer to my TV to achieve the same sound result. With active subwoofer the sound experience was again much better than with the TV. As a result, I have returned the Soundbar again and chose the Canton DM 50 with whom I am now satisfied a lot, even if the price is higher
