I must preface that I am a sound freak not. I have acquired this sound base to support the sound of the speakers of our flat screen TVs, replaced if necessary. The sound base was connected through HDMI ARC with a high quality cable to the TV. About the result I am a little ambivalent, although I had no high expectations. - Despite the many adjustment stayed with me the "teachable moment" from. OK, the sound quality of the TV was had generally improved, but without the built-in TV speakers is the sound not so good. If the TV is a 5: 1 running mission of sound is great, then it turns, with a corresponding volume, actually a little Aha a. Very good, I find that you can not place the TV on the sound base. Sometimes the sound base, for no apparent reason, their preferences or sometimes connect to the TV loses; but that has been resolved with a few clicks on the remote control quickly. Conclusion: I have to keep the sound base and am ready reasonably happy with it, they would not buy again because of the rather steep price.
