We really need a sound bar for our living room. With the damn vaulted ceilings sound gets lost, especially dialogue. -- nm - IrishStephen Jul 15, 10:35 4
- We do the volume shuffle, turn the volume up for dialog then during action scenes we have to turn it down because it's way too loud - Bacon Jul 15, 10:38 3
  - ~ yeah yeah yeah, do the volume shuffle ~ -- nm - jangles Jul 15, 11:07
  - The model we're discussing here has a 'clear voice' setting, which turns down some ambients in favor of dialogue. - emoticripple Jul 15, 11:01 1
    - If we don't get it on the waiting list we are going to buy it new (not refurb) for the $30 more. -- nm - Bacon Jul 15, 11:14
I saw that. But by the time the wife and I talked about it it was sold out. We are on the waiting list. thx -- nm - Bacon Jul 15, 10:24
I don't understand sound bars. Why not just get surround sound? It just doesn't seem like it could really be that good. -- nm - sycor Jul 15, 10:15 17
- Here is our issue. We have an Onkyo 7.1 system. It generates a LOT of heat. We are finding the AC can't keep up during the Summer. - Bacon Jul 15, 10:26 7
  - I've basically retired my receiver. I've plugged my soundbar right into my TV and use the TV for switching. - Mop Jul 15, 10:27 6
    - I am also liking the bluetooth on this yamaha so I can stream my music from my phone. -- nm - Bacon Jul 15, 10:29 5
      - Yup. Bluetooth is the only think missing from my living room right now, and the only reason I'd replace my current soundbar or my receiver. - Mop Jul 15, 10:31 3
        
        I have a solution for you. Let me find it and I will link. I use one and they are awesome -- nm - Bacon Jul 15, 10:33 2
        
        Here ya go. This is the one I bought. -- (link) - Bacon Jul 15, 10:34 1
        
        Nice! -- nm - Mop Jul 15, 10:48
      - On the waiting list though so fingers crossed -- nm - Bacon Jul 15, 10:29
- You guys just convinced me that I need to get a sound bar. :-) - Krusty Jul 15, 10:24 5
  - I'd get one with a subwoofer if it's the main tv. We picked one up at walmart for under $100 at Christmastime. - spamlet Jul 15, 10:26 2
    - Thanks. I'll see what's on sale around the holidays but I'll make sure to get one with the subwoofer. - Krusty Jul 15, 10:28
    - This bar has two subs inside of it. -- nm - Bacon Jul 15, 10:27
  - *takes the 5% commission* -- nm - Strongbad Jul 15, 10:25 1
    - Heh. :-) -- nm - Krusty Jul 15, 10:29
- It's better than your TV speakers but doesn't require wiring your living room. - Mop Jul 15, 10:21
- My living room isn't really conducive to a surround set-up, and my wife will only tolerate so much gadgetry. This does have an excellent surround - emoticripple Jul 15, 10:21
- It's good enough and you don't have wires going everywhere. -- nm - spamlet Jul 15, 10:19
