Hey guys, it's been a while since I've been around here. I want sure exactly how to title this, so please near with me. I find myself shopping for a sound bar. I put together a 3rd Gen i3 Intel NUC for a living room htpc. It only has HDMI audio out and I also put the wifi/Bluetooth card in...

Hello, I am on the market for a soundbar to complement my new Samsung F8500 TV. I have the TV relatively small room, as such I think a soundbar would be the best solution as opposed to a full surround sound system. I have been looking into soundbars and these are two I have looked into. My...

 Gents   Been agonizing over a soundbar for a while and have narrowed it down to the above units. I have a budget of around $300. They are in range and all look good.   Any preferences? User experiences?   Cheers!

 Hello, we're looking at getting a soundbar for out main TV in the living room, an LG 32LK450U. Generally the TVs used for watching  regular evening broadcasts with the occasional DVD or Blu-ray film being watched here and there. Also for late night video game sessions on the PS3. We are far...

I purchased a Pioneer SP-SB23W soundbar from Best Buy on Saturday January 12th. Unbeknownst to me at the time, Best Buy now has only a 15 day return policy (which is pretty lame). I ordered a TV at the same time for delivery a week later since I didn't have a big enough vehicle to transport...

My pioneer sb-23w sub always jumps on and off. I don't feel the bass at times and then sometimes it'll jump right On! Is this a known issue with these?

 I'm a newbee when it comes to audio equipment, but what i've decided thus far is I'd rather go with a solid soundbar for regular TV, with the occasional movie / music, than a full on 5.1 system.     I'd sort of decided on the Martin Logan given the rave reviews and it seems as if I don't...

 Hi there   Let me start by saying that I don't have an in depth know how about hi-fi. I've read a lot about it but my knowledge is still of a basic nature. My current living room hi-fi system is of rather low quality which is why I want to buy a new, higher quality hi-fi system. My priority...

 1. Is there a big difference between 2.1 and 5.1 soundbars? I'm hearing a lot of good things about the Pioneer SP-SB23W, but it's only 2.1. Shouldn't 5.1 always be better than 2.1?   2. Is it possible to connect my PC(has HDMI) and TV to one soundbar? If yes, how? Most soundbars I've looked...

Hey everyone, I could really use your help. I did a search and just can't seem to find a clear answer. First, I am trying to learn whether HDMI connections make a difference for a soundbar. Does anyone know if there is an actual audible difference between an hdmi connection vs an optical...

Trying to help a friend put together a system with ~$500 budget. He has said he wants a soundbar but i think hed be open to smallish speakers as well. I was looking at Pioneer SP-SB23W Sony HT-CT260 Polk Audio SurroundBar 500 Vizio S4251w-B4 Zvox SoundBase 580 any thoughts or other...

This is my second Pioneer SP-SB23W, both with the same issue (both from Best Buy). The sub is properly sync'd to the bar. The issue I'm having is that the sub will only randomly come out of "sleep." In other words, the red light on the bar is solid (as it should be) and the blue light on the...

Hello I have a recent model Denon receiver, capable of 7.1 surround sound. I also have three young children, who make a real mess of my speaker setup. At some point I will go to embedded speakers, but for now I'm thinking of temporarily switching to a soundbar. I know this is arguably a step...

I just bought a new Pioneer SP-SB23W soundbar and tried to connect it to my new Sharp Aquos LC-60LE550U via the digital optical output and I get no sound. All of my sources connect to the TV via HDMI inputs. I read a 4 year old thread that says that Sharp will not pass digital signals through...
