As background, I use to own a really good sound system with Pioneer Receiver, Paradigm Center speaker, Paradigm Studio side speakers, Paradigm rear speakers and Mirage front speakers.

It will not duplicate the sound experience of a good 5 or 7 speaker system

The mid range is a little lacking, but not enough to say this isn't a great sound system because it is.

Great system, lots of features, hopefully buy it on a sale or buy it LikeNew

Finally, the system worked great….. for 4 weeks

I'd rate the sound quality as good, but not a match for a good 5 or 7 speaker system.

Because this soundbar is not cheap, it behooves you to know your input/output requirements before purchasing, to make sure that system is compatible

If you expect it to give you the complete surround experience that you get from a good 5 or 7 speaker system you will be disappointed.
