What customers say about "Key Specs"
Sony HT-MT300 Powerful Mini Sound Bar with Wireless Subwoofer
- It is very easy to set up and pretty powerful.
- I really like the small but powerful sub. It's wireless so I just put it under my bed and even my wife like it.
- It is a pretty powerful little speaker.
- I like the clarity of the top end on the soundbar but the sub woofer only kicks in when there are extremely low frequencies.
- Not enough power, sounded much better in store, then when we got home, I thought that a sound bar, would make the sound separate, it sounds like one speaker and one speaker only.
Bose Solo 5 2.0-Channel Soundbar System
- It provides excellent frequency response and sound leveL with no distortion what so ever.
- Small, yet very powerful. Adequate bass response. Worth the money if you want compact soundbar without sacrificing sound quality!
- Bass response is rich and deep.
- Soundbar has a great and powerful sound.
