    "Dead on arrival" on by t_bomb

    Pros: I can take it back

    Cons: Didn't work.
    No help from customer service.
    was told to take it to a service center

    Summary: Got one home and set it up using the analog cables that I have (didn't have any in the box) and went through the set up and nothing. Tried to get it to work for about 30-40 minutes and could nit get a peep out of the darn thing. Getting frustrated, I called the help line. Not much help, 45 more minutes on the phone and did everything the person on the other end told me to do (turnoff TV speakers, connect to the cable box, etc. etc) then got upset when I refused to connect to another DVD player. I will be returning it, and I will try the Pyle Soundbar instead.

    "Easy setup and sounds good" on by geefell

    Pros: This was extremely easy to setup. The controls are easy to understand and use, either through the remote or directly from the unit. Sounds outstanding in a smaller room.

    Cons: Somewhat bulky in front of plasma sitting on TV stand. As noted elsewhere, looks are not what this unit is about. Could use some more 'oomph' from the subwoofer.

    Summary: I found a smokin' deal online ($90 less than anywhere else I found) that I couldn't pass on, and I'm very happy with the result. The soundbar sounds heads and tails above any TV speaker, and the functionality to control the center, sides, and sub channels independently makes this a great addition to my TV watching.

    Setup was a breeze, including connection from my DVR and PS3. The wireless sub does not have any feedback noise, but could use a little more power when the volume goes up

    "Wonderful sound, very affordable, easy to set up & use" on by ShawnnainCovington

    Pros: Wireless subwoofer, very easy to set up. Remote control is a real plus.

    Cons: None that I can think of.

    Summary: This is my first home home sound system and I'm very, very happy with it. My son has a home theater system with lots of speakers and wires that he has set up around his bedroom. It sounds nice but I really, really didn't want the complexity of trying to set something like that up in my living room. The sound bar approach was a perfect option and this JVC TH-BA1 with the wireless subwoofer is exactly what I needed. I absolutely love the easy set up and the remote control. It is also very affordable so I will be buying a second one for my bedroom.
