I don't use mine and don't even know where it is but I think it was a bit more than 3 inches; sorry!

Guess this can depend on individual tastes. My soundbar is a bit longer than the front of my tv and it makes no difference to me. I got a great buy on it and am plenty happy with it. If you found a great deal on a slightly larger soundbar, I`d be tempted to buy it over a perfect fit that costs more and is less featured.

The size length of the soundbar may make difference in sound quality, but not by much. It's only transmitting the audio via the soundbar. I've never looked at any others than my Philips bar, but maybe the longer bars have a bit better speaker quality. I'd go for the cheaper one if all else is basically the same. I doubt you'd know the difference in sound. Good luck

The reason is the width of the soundbar itself. Amazon dimensions put it at about 38" wide, and a typical 40" HDTV is about 36" wide depending on bezel thickness. The soundbar will definitely work for smaller TV screens, but it will just look funny since it will be wider than the TV screen itself. The soundbar looks perfect beneath my 50" Samsung (about 45" wide).

Mine is a little less than 4.5 inches with the feet. I use the subwoofer pass thru to my powered woofer.

Ours is a piece of junk. It clicks off in the middle of movies several times. Looking for a different sound bar since we installed this one. Sorry.

I don't recall the size exactly...maybe 6" wide. I used a powerbridge sound bar connector which is about 2.5 x 10 and I still had a little trouble making it all work, but mostly because the cable port on the wall plate was small. It was also difficult for me because I ran all my HDMI's into the sound bar so there were a lot of cables. If your wire port is mostly open you should be ok as long as you position it correctly. Best of luck and enjoy!

My main unit is 12"Deep x 11" High x 7" Wide. The speakers are 4" D x 6" H x 4" W. My son and I both have this system and it's GREAT! I mostly use it for TV and DVDs, he uses it for that plus game systems. There must be 2 similar units because the one I bought is smaller than hueytaxi's. Yes, don't expect high end electronics for $80, but there is nothing that can touch this system for the cost. I can't begin to imagine how anyone could feel it isn't worth the money. It's 1000 times better than sound bars or similar items. I'm VERY picky about sound quality and this one does a great job. My main unit is 12"Deep x 11" High x 7" Wide.

No, it is only 6" long. It is no where near large enough to be used as a soundbar.But it will improve the sound of your phone or IPod. That is what it was made for.

My 46" tv ( you measure diagonally ) is actually 42" long, leaving approx. 6.5" extending over each end. To improve stability, I moved the set all the way to the rear of the heater top, which also allowed me to place my sound bar, in front of the tv & on the top as well. Works for me, and the whole unit is on a rug. No problem here..........

Each of the smaller speakers stands 17" tall with their bases attached. The speaker itself measures just under 15". We never put the two speakers together to form a single-unit soundbar, so I can't give you an accurate overall length, but I would guess that it would be about 36 to 38" when assembled. The woofer measures 17" tall by 7" wide by 12" deep. Hope this helps in your planning. We've been very pleased with the improvement in figuring out the dialog in shows. It's not perfect, but we HAVE seen a distinct decrease in the number of times we've had to ask each other "What did he/she say?".

It's a 3.5 inch Subwoo.... , um woofe... , glorified tweeter.I see the spec's say 4 inches. They are using the frame in that number. The speaker is only 3.5 inches.

I have Vizio 42" full HD tv and the vizio 40" sound bar. Like others have said the size of tv and the sound bar is irrelevant. Just center it under the tv to make it look neat. And the sound bar sounds great my vizio tv can be set to Pcm, Dolby etc. and everything works fine. Especially right now i have trans siberian orchestra DVD playing and it sounds great.

I do not know the exact height but it fit my onkyo receiver with 2 inches to spare. My receiver is about 8 in tall.

Dear B. Getz..the soundbar is shelf only with no mounting hardware. But it is the best sounding, smaller soundbar I've found..hope this helps..:)

You probably would want to get a 29 inch soundbar. For appearance and continuity purposes, I thinkg having the tv and soundbar being the same lunch looks better than having a longer-than-tv soundbar.
