One needs a better soundbar..

try the Klipsch Cinema 600, its a 3.1 R10 990.00. You can later on get the surround speakers later @ R2500 for a 5.1.
10" wireless sub
Love this one. The Klipsch cinema range includes the 600, 800 and 1200.
 
So got the JBL 5.1

My word, this thing rumbles the house. Windows shake and doors rattle. Had to shift the bass down a tad bit.

For acoustics, very clear! It’s currently playing at level 20 volume setting and it’s damn loud. You can hear it throughout the whole house bass and vocals..
How many HDMI Inputs ?
 
Pitty. Need atleast 2 HDMI inputs. What is eArch ??

Sorry, eARC. Allows your TV remote to control the volume of the soundbar and also switch it on/off.
Very handy for me to only have one remote in operation at all times.

Nope. Happy with the virtual surround. Don’t really watch that many movies where surround sound would justify the costs.

Very happy with the output and sound quality
 
Interesting thread. How do you guys feel about Polk ?

Polk is a premium audio brand, created in America. They stand for a loud and proud approach. They are world-known and are reputable. They have a great presence in South Africa especially over the last number of years.

That's just HDMI CEC which even works on my 12 year TV

This is eARC. TL,DR:- you want it.

I read some reviews on that system. On Par with the JBL. Average 7/10
 
Listened to this one yesterday at a sound shop

Impressive. If they had stock i would have bought one.
