Have had one since the last sale, the sound is surprisingly good. Major improvement over regular flat-screen TV speakers. Also has optical in, line in, Bluetooth and FM Radio.
Would be good if it came with a tv mount
You sure this produces better sound than the TVs? I really doubt.
Dunno what this particular unit is like but I'll give this deal a greenie purely because it has a built-in FM tuner! HDMI for 'better' TV audio, Bluetooth for playing music off a smart phone and an FM Tuner covers all audio bases for many who want a neat & tidy singular hassle-free device in their home. There's only a couple of other devices that offer all this, one of them was an RAR branded unit sold by Dick Smith (a previous OzBargain deal) I bought for a friend who absolutley LOVES it! Sounded pretty good for a generic cheapie device too. Here's the expired RAR deal for anyone interested: https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/171288
I wish there were more soundbars at a reasonable price that had built-in FM and/or DAB+ tuners :(
Hmm interested in reviews on this one
Also interested in a review
There's two reviews on the site. Both declare, "It does the job…"
Optical in. I was hoping for coaxial.
I'mma bite and go buy one tomorrow.
Girlfriend pointed out target have a pretty good return policy so if it's shit I'll return it
Bit the bullet and grabbed one today, target Marion (SA) had piles of them. Setup easily unfortunately the scan function to setup FM stations isnt doing a very good job. I have a crappy kids radio on the kitchen bench that picks up FM fine within the antenna even up/extended while the sound bar, with the FM antenna cable fully extended saves over half the stations clearly off tune. Needs a fine tune function or its useless to me as a FM tuner which was one of the primary goals.
Bluetooth setup was quick and works well, very happy with the quality of sound for what this is, price build etc. Sits nicely between the top of my Fridge and the cabinet above it which had an annoying gap.
Don't suppose someone experienced might be able to contrast SQ against a dumb set eg. LOGITECH Speaker System Z313 $29.95 at Dick Smith(2 years 2 months 17 days ago).
The Z313 sounded surprisingly balanced with rich clarity but blew up after a power spike. Replaced DSE under warranty with Z3[2]3 which sounds just bloated and muffled, devoid of clarity IMO with a worthless subwoofer. ..So for me, Model Nos. can be that hit or miss, unfortunately.
Might seem odd but I've on occasion listened to a branded sound-bar, cost easily in the several hundreds (Samsung) & connected up to DVB. It failed to impress that the Z313 wouldn't be worth trying even for a second time around. 59 vs $29.95; anybody w both?
Just set up the sound bar today.
FM radio is fail, line in works well when connected via 3.5mm jack although for some reason quality really drops off using RCA plugs (starts sounding tinny and hollow and loses all mid tones)
So worth the $59 imo but would not consider at $100
Anyone heard one of these?
I'd suspect that your TV might sound better without one of these attached.
Willing to be proven wrong…going to Target tonight actually, so will report back.
