    I agree, should be at least a $399 price as a special deal.

  I'm looking for a cheapish soundbar that does NOT, EVER automatically turn itself off or go into 'standby mode'. Most soundbars seem to do this after you turn the TV off; meaning that turning the TV back on again essentially requires the use of two remotes. Every time. So annoying.

  Does anyone know of a cheap soundbar that has the option to over-ride all such shenanigans, and can just be left on/responsive the whole time?

    My TV uses ARC to turn the soundbar on/off when I switch the TV on/off.
    I also use the TV's volume control to control my soundbar volume.

      What is 'ARC'?

        If up connect it hdmi through the audio return channel it will most likely turn on and off when the TV is activated.
        I haven't tried this but try disabling hdmi cec to see if it stops responding to your tvs power status

        Connect your soundbar to your TV via the HDMI(ARC) input. Then change the settings on the TV to power on/off your soundbar automatically. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bMB8979lPNA

    Yep. Insanely loud though, I very very rarely run it over level 1 😂 really good clear sound, solid but detailed bass, and yeah RGB aesthetics. Software is ok. In fairness, it's probably suited to a small home theatre more than a PC setup, just because of the potential volume. It's certainly not a purchase I regret though and it does look great too.

      Thanks will keep it in mind, was waiting for Edifier s2000mkiii to hit $450 or less again but reviews suggest it’s not great for dialogue.

        What reviews? They will be more detailed than most soundbars. They aren’t made for near field though

  I can't speak for this product, but I did order a SoundBlaster GC7 from these guys on Monday night. It was delivered to regional NSW on Wednesday morning with standard shipping.

  So kudos for excellent service.
