I wanted to write this review early because there were so many negative reviews about the auto sleep after 15 mins feature, I almost didn't buy it.
First: I bought this in Jan 2022, and my unit has the option to turn off the auto sleep feature by holding the [TV] button on the remote for 5 seconds. The setup was very straight forward, the manual is 2 pages with pictures, with basically no wrong options.
It comes with a HDMI ARC and optical input, only connect one. I'm using the ARC and the speaker turns on ~10 seconds after my tv, and off ~5 seconds after, which isn't great but it works.
I think the sound is great for the price, but the limitations are very apparent at higher volumes. The movie button gives you pretty good range and base (with some adjustments), but at higher volumes the enhanced dialog settings 3, and sometimes 2, become useless.
I have it connected to my Insignia Fire Tv, and in movie mode at 50-60 volume it’s loud enough that I need to yell when I’m talking to someone a few feet away, while still experiencing incredibly clear sound. The bass on max in movie mode was enough to shake the room.
Overall, it’s exactly what I was looking for at this price point (<$300CAD) and the sound quality exceeded my expectations despite a few limitations with the enhanced dialog feature.
