"Literally couldn't think of any pair of IEMs + dongle dacs could sound as analytical as the C3P+ for around $70. ... detail is just sooo much better. The C3P+ is just leagues ahead the I5 in terms of detail and resolution. ... the C3P+ is actually the closest sounding one to really expensive iems or headphone that I have."
"Crazy good from the jump! ... When you factor in they're only $99 and go toe-to-toe with Bose QC Ultra at $299, this is the deal of the year!"
"Can't recommend them enough for the value, sound like $200 earphones."

"the dragon 12s are closer to REL 8/12 subs. ... No soundbar has anything close to this sub available. ... The 12s alone make this system untouchable by any other home theater in a box. No comparison!! ... Couple the 12”subs into the experience, you’re not getting that experience short of Svs sub territory. ... It’s a house shaking, chest thumping experience that is not able to be reproduced by any other soundbar or home theater in a box. ... Adding the two 12s to the 8s really has taken the system to the next level. ... The house literally shakes now with honest chest thumping levels. ... BTW, the 12s are RELs! ... The 90 lbs behemoths in the room! ... The chuffing from the 8s many reviewers have noted is gone when used with the 12s."
"nothing trust me nothing will literally hit u that hard not even Canelo Alvarez"
"IER not having absolutely incredible bass is objectively BS. ... The bass reading on the IER is so off what you'll actually hear if you have them inserted properly, it's absolutely ridiculous. ... I have Fatfreq Maestro SE CIEM'D which are their heaviest hitting premium model - CIEM-ing it only make the bass hit much harder, and it's still not quite as heavy as the IER."

"D60 has true surround and it works exactly as expected. Dialogues should be played from front speakers exactly how it is in life, if You are talking with somebody also it is heard from front. Additionally rear speakers should play sounds from background + dialogues only in some situations like someone in movie is talking "from behind""
"dialogue comes through loud and clear."
"The D60 is true 5.1 surround sound. Ive done all the 5.1 tests and its great. ... There are 5 entirely seperate speakers plus the sub woofer. You just need to do a 5.1 sound test on Youtube to see all 5.1 speakers are read. You can even isolate them. ... For regular TV, games and movies the 5.1 sound is great."

"No, non ho problemi con il volume basso degli altoparlanti posteriori e non ho avuto alcun problema con il crepitio. Tutto è stato cristallino da quando ho iniziato a usarlo."
"Q symphony is amazing. ... With the first two bars, you could clearly tell the sound was coming from below the TV… q symphony fixes that completely."
"Since we also got a new Samsung Q TV to go with it we are enjoying the Q Symphony and yes, it does make a huge difference! ... I think the TV has 4 speakers, so it uses those 4 on top of the sound bar speakers (does that make it technically 11channel then?) to give more dynamics to the surround effect."

"their battery isn't lasting any longer than 1h at most"
"The usb doesn’t work anymore. ... It just makes a nonstop sound screeching sounds whenever a sound it played through them. ... That happened within the first month of having them."

"I noticed distorted sound in the subwoofer and the 2 rear speakers and all 3 are wireless. ... This really bothered me because once I heard the distortion, I could not unhear it."

"Any of these not have RBE? I have the Valerion and the RBE is very pronounced. ... I seem to be very sensitive to RBE so for me it's bad, like unwatchable bad on some media."
"scenes that are supposed to get much louder were kinda level with the prior scene. Almost like night mode on a lot of soundbars."
"The LS12000 has over 2x the native contrast of the Valerion. ... The native is not meaningless, that's silly. Native CR is the foundation of the entire image capability. Dynamic CR doesn’t always work or help and it can also cause artifacts and issues like clipping and brightness jumps. Some scenes it improves greatly, some only a small amount, and some not at all. It all depends on the composition of the particular scene. Native still always limits simultaneous on screen contrast for an given image. ... There are scenes that look better on the LS12000 due to the noticeably higher native CR."
I got an even cheaper one for I think around $190. It's a Hisense and I don't know the model offhand but they make one that I see a lot of people recommend as one of the best budget options. [Hisense 5.1.2 AX5125H](https://www.walmart.com/ip/Hisense-5-CH-Soundbar-with-Wireless-Subwoofer/3488920129) I'm not a fan of their TV's but for the price I'm pretty happy with one I have. I haven't looked into anything in the $500 range because it's more than I would spend.
r/tcltvs • Recommended soundbar ->Hisense ax5125h could also fit that mix?
r/Soundbars • Best Soundbar under £200? ->Always a difficult one. I can only judge what I have experienced. You can compare features and tech specs, but that's not necessarily making it sound better. The AX5125H had some good reviews from what hifi and ratings (based on the price). It does Dolby Atmos, but with only upfiring speakers in the bar, don't expect over head effects, just perhaps the sound in front of you to sound slightly taller. I'm happy with mine for movies and TV. Sometimes it's not great for music, but apparently that's pretty common on sound bars, especially budget ones. I found that placing the surround speakers to the side and just in front of me gave a much better experience than trying to put them behind, as that left them too close.
r/Soundbars • Best Soundbar under £200? ->ive been pretty happy with ax5125h from hisense - it has atmos - it was black friday when i got it for $249 [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwUZTQWjN8M](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mwUZTQWjN8M)
r/Soundbars • Best soundbar for $200-$300 for an apartment ->I recently tried 3 soundbars, including that Hisense. The sound is decent but the thing that made me return it was that scenes that are supposed to get much louder were kinda level with the prior scene. Almost like night mode on a lot of soundbars. And the bass wasn't very good. Ended up getting the Q990D and am very happy with it.
r/Soundbars • Best sound bar? ->i had the ax5125h and it has bad static in the rears. all units/design flaw. maybe theyve fixed that by now but dont trust them. also music sounds terrible on it.
r/Soundbars • Best budget /low cost soundbar ? ->maybe they've changed but i had the older cheap hisense 5.1.2 soundbar and it had noticeable static in the rears. i returned it for another one and exact same issue. from some comments online every single one had this, a design flaw. yet on user reviews they were highly rated. really have no idea i'm hardly an audiophile, the farthest from it. but i guess noone noticed that static. unbelievable. i also noticed, again not audiohpile so i cant say why, but music just didn't sound good on the hisense, beyond that static flaw. something just wrong. i've read some comments echoing that too. that hisense isn't good for music. so overall i think stick to the brands that know audio which for me are just Samsung, vizio (owned several vizio), and jbl. and i'm quite sure sonos lol, sony etc. maybe the new hisense are better but i dont trust them. they're also suspiciously cheap, like their 5.1.4 model goes for 399. now thats not fair by me because i love cheap chinese tv's like hisense and tcl that have served me well and give me the specs of a sony or Samsung that costs twice as much. but yeah for me i dont trust hisense soundbars after my experience. i'd at least make sure theres a way to return it if you dont like it.
r/Soundbars • Is the HS 3100 Hisense good enough? ->No the AX5125H is a 5.1.2 setup... the 5.1.4 should be called something like ax5140q. But don't get it if it's like more than 50 USD more.
r/Soundbars • Should I go for it ? ->Maaaate, I have just gone through this, very similarly. Alright, it's not a G5! But it's an S95c. If you want a cheap soundbar situation you muuust go for this hisense system I just bought for £199 at Argos. I did loads of research and was so tempted to go for the top o' the range stuff but I am wholly impressed with this sweet little set up. It's called the hisense AX5125H. Do et Edit: I was utilising ai to help me decide, and was searching a bunch myself. I am really convinced this is the best you can do with £199 - in terms of improving sound for a new tv set up. I'm so happy with it. It's a 3.1.2 system, therefore, with active atmos (not simulated/ virtual), two rear speakers, a sub, and a soundbar. It's bloody brilliant.
r/Soundbars • Cheap soundbar better than good TV? ->Hisense AX5125H can be found as cheap as $199 and IMO is probably one of the better sounding bars at that price range. $249 is the usual sale price.
r/Soundbars • Best soundbar for $200 USD ->I'd say get a corner tv mount and get rid of the stand. Get a Hisense AX5125H soundbar system...it has Dobly Atmos included. It's an excellent midrange choice imo. Purchase a soundbar tv mount to connect soundbar underneath the tv. The rear speakers are completely wireless. So you can easily place them behind the sofa/sectional. Get speaker stands as well for rear speakers. Sub is wireless as well.
r/hometheater • Setup advice for difficult room layout ->We purchased a 75” Hisense U8 in later 2024 and it’s surprised the hell out of me. It was an NYT Wirecutter top pick for 2024. PQ is impressive and it has an impressive dynamic range— really dark shadows to eye-searing brights. We paired it with the Hisense Dolby Atmos 5.1 soundbar (includes subwoofer and two rear speakers) and that system has also astonished me with how good it is. Previously we had a structured wire 7.1 Yamaha speaker system run by a Sony receiver and I was worried that a mere “soundbar” would not satisfy.
