ARVICKA TV Sound Bar, HIFI Bluetooth 4.0 Stereo Wireless on Wall TV Speaker, Surround Sound Bass Enhanced Soundbar for TV/ PC/ iPod/ Phones/ Tablets/ PSP/ Echo Dot, 2nd Gen

Instant Sound Improvement.I own a Vizio 4k TV and similar to other flat screens out there on the market, it suffers from poor built in speakers. This essentially means lack of vocal clarity and bass. After using the R3000 sound for two days, I am very impress with its sound clarity and the bass it provides so if your TV has poor vocal sound, this sound bar will solve just that problem; I can finally hear clear dialogues in documentaries. In addition, the R3000 increase the bass of your TV just the right amount without overdoing it, thus further enhancing your audio experience. The sound bar comes with all the necessary cables to connect to your television and get instant audio improvement as soon as it is plugged in.To use Bluetooth for streaming music, press “BT” on the remote, the light will turn blue. This is a channel for Bluetooth streaming. For music, the Bluetooth 4.0 connection is very stable for music. I only notice connection stutter when I am heavily browsing the web on my smartphone, but as long as you don’t use your phone during stream, you connection is solid. Music can also be played from 3.5 mm male to male cable connecting to your phone, however, the other end of the cable need to be plugged to “line in” and since there is only one “line in” socket, you will need to disconnect the cable that’s connected to your TV to play music from phone to speaker without Bluetooth. So in other words, just use Bluetooth. I did not notice any difference in sound quality between Bluetooth streaming and 3.5 mm cable. There is a “line out” socket for subwoofer.There are some very small issues/inconveniences with this product:1. I did notice when playing music, part of the song with low sound will be very low and part with loud sound will be very loud as if the sound bar lacks equalizer. (this seems to happens to old songs from, say, 60s and 70s)2. The sound bar, itself, is built a tad uneven. Only the center portion of the speaker is actually touching the surface, this means the other two ends (left and right) are sort of floating off the ground surface. And since all the cables are connected to the right side, it adds weight to the right end, tilting the left end further up. This can be fixed by putting some playing cards under the right end of the speaker.3. The remote isn’t the most responsive remote. So expect to be pressing more than once to increase/decrease volume. This isn’t rare. Many sound bars in this price range have weak remote signal4. The light indicator does not go off. It will turned white and perpetually blink. Now this can be a bit irritating since you can’t sleep with blinking light in a dark room. I guess putting a towel over it solve the problemOverall, the R3000 tremendously improves the sound of my Vizio TV. Dialogues in shows and movies are a lot clearer than before and the extra bass sound just right without too much of it. The sound bar feels heavy and sturdy which is good. I did not deduct a star because the issues are very minor and its affordability made up for it. For its price, this sound bar exceeds my expectation and hands down the best sounding speaker built with Bluetooth at $60.PSIf you’re deciding whether to buy this Arvicka sound bar or Richsound Research RSR (both sells at $60), get THIS one. I returned the RSR because it did not provide better sound at all.

Not a bad sound bar for the price. I was a little disappointed that there wasn't complete instructions included, forcing me to contact tech support (who was extremely helpful, thank you again). Normally I'm fairly tech savvy, but I couldn't get it to pair to my tv for the Bluetooth feature.UPDATE, 5/17/2019: I had a problem with my original soundbar. I contacted the seller, who put me in contact with the manufacturer, told them about my issue, thinking they’d let me know how I could correct it. They offered to replace the soundbar if I paid shipping. I felt it was an excellent customer service offer, considering I had the soundbar for 2 years. We worked out the details on how I could pay the shipping, which was $20.00. I received the new soundbar within 10 days! Considering the fact that it came from out of the country, I thought that was pretty awesome! The customer service and seller deserve a 5 star rating. I’m changing my original “star” vote to 5 for this very reason. I also had purchased the extended warranty. Thank-you Arvicka!

Update 15 Jun 2017 - Arvicka, at no charge to me, provided their newest product the R7000 and didn't require I send the old one back. I've had this new product for the past two weeks and it is leaps and bounds better for both performance and aesthetics. I gave it 5 Stars and the URL is: ARVICKA Home Theater TV Speaker- CSR Bluetooth 4.0 Fantastic Wireless 2.1 Channel Surround Sound Bar with Built-In Subwoofer https://www.amazon.com/ARVICKA-Speaker-Bluetooth-Fantastic-Subwoofer/dp/B01N4LIEV0/ref=sr_1_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1497684411&sr=1-1&keywords=Arvicka+R7000Original Review of R6000 - Died exactly 37 days from the day I bought it and since it's an Amazon Prime Item I can't even get a hold of the seller. Top of that I deployed to Southwest Asia...Don't buy this piece of junk.

Updated: OK I finally got it to work thanks to me randomly trying options on my TV menu. I have a Sharp Roku tv and the fix was to disable the speakers on my tv so the sound could play via the soundbar. Also, Arvicka customer service was nice and followed up to assist but I had fixed it by then. I upgraded to 4 stars. Only 4 because there is no online manual or guide. I still don't know what the red, blue and green lights mean.I can't get it to work with the tv and the sound bar directly. For now, I'll give it 3 stars and I've had it for over a month. It works with blue tooth via my phone and computer but not with the provided cords. I've lost the manual and I can't find an online manual or website either.

This sound bar won't sync to my remote control and from what I've been reading, it has problems syncing to any remote control outside of its own. If you don't mind using multiple remotes, then this product is fine. The sound quality is decent for the price. For those of us who would rather use a single remote, then DO NOT buy this product.The customer service is in one word, terrible. I emailed them a couple of times, and they tried to give me some tips, none of which worked. They kept assuring me they would fix the problem. After their first email, they just stopped responding completely and I cannot get in contact with anyone. Terrible terrible customer service. DO NOT BUY.

I bought this speaker bar to attach to my tv. The sound from the tv speakers was not very clear to us. This unit appears to be pretty well made, very easy to install using either RCA cables (included) or blue tooth. There are certainly higher quality units at much higher prices, but for us this works very well. Sound quality is very clear.The only negative I have seen so far is that the volumn control is not quite linear enough. It is either just a little too loud or when we adjust it is just a little too low.
