PanasonicSC-HTB150EBK Slim Soundbar with Wireless Subwoofer for a Dynamic Sound Experience

I bought this to go with my ageing Panasonic plasma 42 inch G30.The sound quality is a big improvement on the TV on-board sound, but that wasn't difficult as the G30 has very poor and thin sound.Nevertheless the sound quality is overall pretty good, taking into consideration it's compact size which suits my set up perfectly, there is plenty of volume with good strong bass.One very important point is that to get the best out of this Panasonic soundbar, you really need to use the hdmi with ARC connection, most tv's since 2011 have at least one input with ARC, what this means is that you get sound going in both directions with control.I turn the soundbar on and then my Panasonic TV remote controls both TV and soundbar volume and then it turns on or off with the TV automatically! A great feature.The thing is not to expect this to perform the same as a full 5.1 system or even a conventional stereo set up.It comes with a remote control but I've no need for that yet but it's necessary to pair any Bluetooth device.It also has a USB and optical input.Overall I'm very happy with this Panasonic soundbar, it matches perfectly with my Panasonic plasma, with good sound which is a massive improvement on the TV speakers, which quite frankly I couldn't bear listening to any longer, especially up in the bedroom where it seemed even worse than before.Recommended at the price, if you want a bigger wider sound then you need to spend more.

Going a bit deaf in my old age I assumed that having to have subtitles on all the time was normal. However, it seems that good sound quality has been sacrificed for slim styling in modern TVs. This soundbar fits neatly under my set and makes everything much clearer. Connecting via HDMI was straightforward.Not the highest of Hi-Fi for Music over Bluetooth from my phone but quite acceptable.

The sound quality is excellent, with deep bass and a sleek design. I connected it to my laptop via Bluetooth without any issues or loss in sound quality. Wall mounting was straightforward and hassle-free.However, it doesn’t come with an optical or HDMI cable, which would have been a nice addition. Otherwise, a great purchase!

This sound bar is great for the price good sound and speech to go with Panasonic TV.

So, yes as expected the sound quality is much better than our TV. But it's not particularly loud. Using HDMI arc you control the volume via your TV remote but it is terribly slow to respond which might be down to our 55" Hisense TV. Also when connected to Bluetooth which is straightforward I was unable to adjust the volume except to mute the speaker when volume slider at lowest setting. I paid £80 for this which was discounted and I feel is too much, at the £120 regular price it's way overpriced. I'd still be a bit miffed paying £50-60 as it's just not that big of an improvement! I have Creative Pebble V3 Bluetooth speakers which I use for my PC which sound way better and are louder which retail for £34. If this is the standard for TV soundbars then they leave a lot to be desired!

Bought over 1 year ago. Very disappointed. Had intermittent problems with the sound bar completely losing audio. Complained to both Panasonic & Amazon with poor level of customer service. Both companies had the product repaired but with no success. Eventually received a full refund after numerous calls & email chasing. Not recommended as a good buy.

I was really not sure wether to buy this soundbar. Bought a Sony TV for the bedroom a few days ago. Felt although the sound quality was not bad I could do with a soundbar as I am somewhat deaf.Reading the reviews there was mixed views on it working the non Panasonic TV's. I posted a question on the product description wether it would work with a Sony TV and I got mixed answers.So ....when it arrived, I quickly unpacked it , plugged it in and connected it to HDMI sockets. In less that 10 min it was working. Turns on and off , volume control all on the Sony remote. The Panasonic remote is still in its wrapper.Happy with the sound quality and NO setup problems

Sounds great but had to get tv engineer to connect it up as I failed could not get it to work with my new tv engineer nearly gave up till he connect it to my sky Q box works perfect now he said he even learnt something for thr £35. Spent on him well woth it would like to know do how can you add more subwoofers and how to go about it
