Hisense HS214 2.1ch Sound Bar with Built-in Subwoofer, 108W, All-in-one Compact Design with Wireless Bluetooth, Powered by Dolby Audio, Roku TV Ready, HDMI ARC/Optical/AUX/USB, 3 EQ Modes,Black

While most small soundbars are in fact loud, they tend to not have great sound. This is the exception. For its size it not only fills a small room with sound, it has great bass output too. Connectivity is no problem. You have a line in , optical , USB, RCA, Bluetooth, and a HDMI-ARC connection. My only complaint is that there is only one HDMI connection, and there is no display on the unit to show the sound mode, volume level, or connection type. But for the price, asking for those things is a little much anyway. Bottom line, if you have a smaller space and want big sound, this is the sound bar for you.

La compré en combinación con la marca del TV y no me ha decepcionado, el sonido se escucha claro y sin subir mucho el volumen

I purchased the HS214 to replace my old sound bar, as I'd lost the original remote and had no way to operate it any longer. The draw was the ARC HDMI connection, the face buttons (as opposed to no buttons), and the built-in subwoofer.For reference, I own an onn 65" 4K Roku TV thanks to Black Friday, and a killer gaming PC connected to it. Installing the bar was super easy. I already had the TV on, plugged in the power and HDMI cable, and it woke up on its own. I turned the TV off and it turned off. I don't think it gets much easier. I am able to control the volume with the TV remote. I was also able, with the original remote, to turn the brightness down/off on the LED indicator and to adjust the bass volume relative to the overall volume. Nice...The subwoofer is likely the big question with this bar. I have the settings set to movie, full crank on the subwoofer volume. I can't feel the bass, but I can hear it just fine. It's a 3" speaker with a 1/4" foam flex surround. This is best for people who live in apartments with thin walls (or some similar situation) that want at least some kind of bass to work with.The only drawback I've found is if too much time passes, the bar will shut off on its own, like a sleep function after 10-15 minutes. I can use the original remote or the face buttons to turn it on, or turn the TV off and back on. Not a big deal if you have media constantly running, but I use my TV as a computer monitor, so I'm not always making noise with it. There seems to be no clear way to change this. It's a common function in modern devices, so it is what it isIf this were a sound system that you could turn up and blow the windows out of the house, this would be a 5-star review and a 5-star product. This is a 4-star sound bar, and that's exactly what I wanted to purchase. It's not crystal clear, it's not a thunder generator, but for my purposes, it'll do just fine. Definitely sounds better than the stock TV speakers. I am satisfied with my purchase.

I wanted an inexpensive sound bar that wouldn't take up much room, but would still sound decent at all ranges. That's why I went with the Hisense HS214 with the built-in subwoofer.The sound is as good as expected. It doesn't produce much bass, but enough to set it apart from those that don't have a subwoofer. This was actually a pretty big deal for me, because I didn't want much bass, but the lack of any is vastly inferior, imo.The voice clarity is good, but I'd still say that it's average, at best. I have trouble understanding the dialogue when watching TV and I think this will help, but I've seen other inexpensive sound bars that were better here. It has surround sound and I just want to say that the NEWS mode is far more tinney than expected. I think it's worse than my TV speaker in that regard and I find it disappointing, even though I likely wouldn't have used it anyhow.For some reason, Alexa recognized it and now shows it as an inactive device in my Alexa app. I don't think it actually works with Alexa, though, and it's not the first time I've had a device do that (i.e Alexa recognizes the device, but shows it as inactive and won't control it). I didn't expect it to work with Alexa and I'm not even sure what good it would do, so no big deal.My only big complaint is with the "mounting kit", which consists of two screws. I wouldn't even care, except that it won't sit flat against the wall using the screws, because the cords are in the way (and I tried). As far as I'm concerned, this is a design flaw and you'll need to buy a mount for it to sit flat or just place it on a counter top. I may attempt to correct this with some spacers, but I'll have to buy some, since none were included.Overall, I'm pleased with the Hisense HS214, but I expected a better mount from Hisense, even if it's just a couple of spacers. Advertising it with a "mount kit" is dishonest when it can't be mounted flat.*Almost forgot to add that it worked with the nice HDMI cable with my TV remote. The volume increases in increments of 5 and seems normal around 50. It doesn't get as loud as other inexpensive sound bars I've tried, but it's loud enough for me. It won't let me just give Alexa a number for the volume, though.

I'm a home theater type of guy. Never been a fan of soundbars but I needed something cheap that would replace my bedroom TV internal speakers as they sound bad. It's a 2018 TCL Roku TV which also recognized the soundbar. Everything function as they should. Also bought it to play ambient sounds through bluetooth to go to sleep lol. Out of all 3 sound modes the movie mode is my favorite. Music mode has not much bass and is not warm as I like everything to sound. However that could be personal taste and you might find the other modes to better fit your listening. News mode is okay for, well, watching news. In conclusion, it's a solid sound bar and for the price it's an excellent choice to get a better sound experience out of your TV. As I mentioned I bought it for my bedroom and didn't want anything crazy. For a living room, however, I'd go with their bigger sound bar or do what I did and build yourself a dedicated home theater system for a much better sound; if money isn't the issue that is.
