    Will it work for more than a handful of years before investors get cranky about product turnover?

      ABSOLUTELY NOT

      Sorry. An AV installer has PTSD from tons of pissed off clients blaming us for their audio system suddenly not working

    `one of most significant breakthroughs in a century’

    They didn’t say which century.

    Not a word on what it is or how it works. Marketing hype most likely.

    in short they’re further reducing transducer size for a $100 price increase. Gonna get sick bass from that 1.25” woofer bro

    For that price you can get a decent surround sound system. Sound bars don’t sound much better than the speakers built into the TV.

      You do not know what you’re talking about. The $50 no name soundbar from Walmart might not be an improvement but soundbars from Sonos (and others) are MAJOR upgrades.

      A surround sound system will likely sound better (again not the $100 combo pack from Walmart) but requires placing speakers in the proper places…which most people do not even do

        Even a no name sound bar from Walmart will be a major improvement.
