I do not have any recommendations. Just a reminder, this TV does not have USB playback for video and only 2 HDMI ports plus the T.V stand is static (i.e does not rotate)

No the size of the sound bar is irrelevant what counts is the quality of the sound. My HD TV is a 55 works just great. Go for it!

I installed my sound bar through my bluray player. I don't know if you're trying to plug in from your tv or what, but the sound should come from whatever is actually playing the media.

I had an extra sound bar that gave the Coby much better sound. The tv has a nice picture and other than the sound issues, I haven't had any thing to complain about.

re Samsung soundbar: Thanks for the info Tim. I think this is the one for us. Reviews seemed to be mostly positive and it looks less complicated than some.

We just bought and the sound is awful as well. Looking for a mini soundbar now. Trying to figure out if this TV is bluetooth capable?

Just be happy your soundbar is working. I returned mine - no one at Sharp, after 3 weeks of trying, would believe that my unit lost sound output intermittently. I now have a Sony soundbar that is working well (with my Sharp TV), and I could not be more satisfied.

You don't need a sound bar. You can use the trusurround HD sound, the equalizer amplify effects. You have to adjust it to your preference.

The TV sound is OK but the sound bar makes theatre like sound in the room. You can really tell the difference. As far as it having to be a 'smart sound bar' - the TV seems to be able to do everything the soundbar can do.

Hi J., make sure that your TV is set to use the SoundBar and not TV speakers. -Vincent

Yes, I have the exact same problem. We just took the sound bar off. The TV's speakers are fine. I hate that it is a waste, though.

Hi Kathleen, I watch over the air HD all the time and my soundbar works fine. I can't think of anything that would make it not work. Possibly a setting on your TV?

I think the sound is really solid for built-in tv speakers, especially with dialogue clarity turned on. I'd still recommend getting a sound bar and sub for the best results, but its not at all necessary

The sound bar is NOT worth the $99 I paid so it is certainly not I would recommend. The unit is a SMART TV but you must provide internet to the system to make it work. Be prepared to pay for an adapter to make that happen.

Ok, guys I'm old and new to this stuff, so be pateint... How does a sound bar work. Is it hooked to the TV and instead of the sound coming from the TV it comes out of the sound bar and I'm assuming the sound is much better. Can you contol the sound volume with a Directv remote or the TV remote. Thanks in advance... Mike

I am not a techie by any means! I purchased the LG Smart TV & very happy with the picture..come to find out, the new TV's are thin, the speakers are small & in the back. For my purpose this inexpensive sound bar is perfect. It isn't by any means a high end sound bar.. To answer your inquiry, I can lower or raise the sound to suit the chanel I am watching. I am very happy with it. Hope this helps.

This question was posted over a year ago, but I'll answer: DO NOT buy the sound bar. It is terrible. Very low quality audio, crackles horribly when level nears top range. The television is louder than the sound bar (same crackle) The TV has an optical output, but the bar does not.
