am looking for a soundbar similar to the logicteck that works with your tv volume control? I have a Sumsung flat screen tv now.

Maybe... turn down your TV volume and then turn up the Soundbar's to use as a pre-set level. You could then go up or down based on the TV input. I think it depends on your TV's inputs... it may not work with the split red/white inputs but would work with the headphone type input. I use mine on an all-in-one computer on my desk so I just reach up to turn the volume knob.

This is a good small soundbar, especially for the money, but if I understand your question correctly it will NOT sync directly with your TV's volume control, but the volume will become quieter or louder when changed on your TV. For example, if you turn the volume on your TV up it will not turn the speaker's internal volume up, however the sound coming through the speaker will become louder. The speaker has its own independent volume control, that you adjust with the black knob you can see on the right-hand side in the picture (and unfortunately the speaker does not come with its own remote). So basically, once the speaker is plugged into your TV you can raise the volume either by raising your TV's volume or the speaker's volume, but one will not control the other. Hope that helps! :-)

I have a Samsung sound bar on one tv and a sony on a second tv. Both are excellent. Just make sure you get a wireless sub woofer. The sound compared to the tv speakers is like night and day

Yes, I have. I like them just fine for that. Don't know how they compare to a sound bar though, as I have never had one. I use mine with a 27" Samsung Monitor/HDTV in my office. Sounds great.

Dear Russ, Thanks so much for your inquiry. If you have RCA audio output jacks you can use those to connect to the YAS-103 Soundbar. That will in all probability require you to go into the menu of your television and disable the television's internal speakers. The result will be much better sound! Please let me know if you have any additional questions. Regards, Eric Cohen Worldwide Stereo

Actually I'm using the optical audio output from my Sony tv to the optical input of the sound bar...not sure why it wouldn't work when using the red/white output from your tv into the soundbar...all I did was hook it up and turn my TV speaker off...make sure the blue light is lit up on the soundbar when powered up...

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

I must have missed this. Vizio sound bars are very common (Costco). The fact that Sony doesn't support it is a major oversight. I'll have to send mine back. Tried the learn code on the remote and it doesn't find a match. Vizio is listed on the TV, just not audio. Too bad.

I would highly reccomend a subwoofer. It adds that extra quality of sound. While my soundbar has subwoofer in it , it doesnt compare to a subwoofer added. Go for it!

Fair. I put a polk 9000 soundbars on mine because of the application I am using it for. Another one was sold to my father in law and he has no sound bar. No complaints.

It should work fine for adjusting volume if you connect it via HDMI with the HDMI arc port on your tv. If you want to change sound settings, you'll have to use the original remote for the sound bar.

Did you ever find an alternative to the BB2001? Funny, I just bought the im600 today, and it still had the slip in it for the BB2001. I would like to buy a subwoofer for it though, so let me know :) That goes for anybody reading this, too!

Thank you Donald for the response and the information! My only concern about the LN52A750 is no swivel stand. I may have to bite the bullet. Do you have any thoughts on the Samsung HT-X810 2.1 Channel Soundbar Home Theater System? The description talks about hanging, but says nothing about 'sitting' (which I would rather do). I can't handle a 7-piece surround-sound set. I definitely need more simplicity. I live in a historically registered home that is definitely not conducive to modern electronics! And this is one girl who loves her electronics! Any help you can give me on a soundbar would be once again, sincerely appreciated. Thank you Donald for the response and the information!

You are out of luck. I tried mightily, but got nothing but the runaround from the company. They claim they don't have any extras, but said they would contact me about getting me some sort of replacement or even a new sound bar. That's when they stopped contacting me. They have provided completely unacceptable customer service.

I stongly recommend a sound bar. The sound from the TV is quite inferior. It made a huge difference for me. I bought both TV and the sound bar here.

Stanley might have the solution for your problem now... check these out;Stanley ATS-106 TV Top Shelf-Small Size, 6-Inch WidthA pair of these could hold your sound bar on top of your TV...

I have a Samsung 37" flatscreen TV and purchased the Maxwell Sound Bar and it works beautifully with it. It sits under the TV and there is no need for using other sound devices with it. I had a professional install it to TV.

Jeffrey - I don't have that; where can I get it? I did a search on monoprice, but nothing relevant showed up. SocialLogic - I dunno what it's called but it's definitely not the coaxial input port (coaxial is the same used for subwoofer, I thought - and this receiver has two inputs, since it is 7.2)I've had it for about 10 days, and I'm still tweaking around with the settings. What audio mode do you guys generally use when playing Blu Ray? :)
