The Soundbar is fully packed for shipment in two precisely matched Styrofoam trays. This gives a very high-quality impression during unpacking and protects well against damage. On the top of the accessories located in small recesses. No long search and clear. Order is just half the battle ....
The Soundbar is absolutely just this first impression. She looks in her dark paint very classy and does well under the TV. Well, the anticipation for the upcoming audio results is then somewhat marred by the on the back, the sides lying in a depression connections for electricity and other sources (optical, coaxial). What Canton has only thinking ?? This fumbling bugging me anyway. Okay, replugging is only rarely or not at all popular. An HDMI connector has incidentally not donated Canton this soundbar.
But to communicate with the TV, connected via the supplied optical cable, run at all well. In the blue-lit display in the middle of the front side of the operating state (ON) and then the compound (TV) displays. So far everything to our satisfaction. The remote control is difficult, almost heavy, but still comfortably in the hand and responds instantly to every command. In addition, it is capable of learning and it can be controlled so that the main functions of TV.
In the sound test. However, before it will be ready, the Soundbar is about 15 - "leveling" 20 h on different sound sources. From the outset, sound music, whether from the radio or CD, or language, in this case, the messages of various stations, clearly. Without any discoloration. Since Canton has done a really good job. What does not work well the "harmonized" adjusting the volume when changing channels. But that's not the problem of Canton DM 75, but all manufacturers. This function is, it seems, is not particularly desirable from the transmitters.
Next is footage of a Bluray. "Ironman 3" is announced. Since lends itself to the Canton plenty of opportunity to show their skills. The signal from the player is dragged over the TV via HDMI. But by now it's clear where there is a lack of this soundbar. On bass at all. Sorry, whatever I have read in the partially effusive test assessments at this point, I can not confirm. Here the Canton remained pale and relatively silent. Not even the possibility of setting Soundes (surround / stereo) and the bass or the treble (-6 to +6) did not change much. The film feeling could not and would be in the absence of accompanying, not sounding, bass simply not adjust. From the sense of space not to mention.
This gets the located her in competition Harman Kardon SB 26 out much better. Aside from the much more diverse connection options. However, since that bothers me the lying in front of the TV sound bar, which projects into the screen and thus curiously enough signal to operate the TV "slows". Yes, I did not want to believe it at first. But the fact is that.
Now, after several days of intense listening and comparing is the Canton DM 75 back. A distinct sound improvement, as described here by Rocketdog, I could at this time not make the best of intentions. What for ?? Because there was, in my view anyway 'nothing to criticize. A pity, but in search of a good (TV) Sound Unfortunately I could not convince this soundbar from Canton.
Who does not, however, puts a lot or no value to a bass that gets the Canton DM 75 a good sound system.
