TCL Alto 8+ 2.1 Sound Bar with Subwoofer (Open Box)

I have a Bose Soundtouch 130 system in my living room that I paid $1,600 for a few years ago...it’s as good as it gets IMHO. That being said, I bought two of the TCL for my bedroom and office through Woot! at a deep discount. Even if I had paid the full list of $199 this is a terrific value for a fine soundbar. If you are looking for input and features galore such as with my Bose, this is not your soundbar. If you are looking for decent features and quality sound and video, this soundbar is hard to beat. Read the specs so you know what you are buying. Some of the reviews I have read seem to suggest some buyers failed to do this, and are then “surprised” later. You get good audio frequency response at 40 hz-20,000 kHz, and the built-in subwoofers deliver plenty of bottom end. Dialogue is clear and easily heard. Plenty of system power with 200 watts. A few quick notes: The built in Fire stick and Alexa are great features. The remote is versatile and functional. Installation is simple and easy. You get three sound modes: movie, music, and news- you cannot adjust the sound further...but I found the presets are nicely calibrated and sound great. Bluetooth is a nice feature. You have only one video output- HDMI ARC (audio return channel). If your TV also has this, then any other devices (blu-ray, XBox, satellite, etc.) that you plug into your tv will have the sound routed through the TCL...a nice feature. If your TV does not have HDMI ARC, then you will be limited. All in all, this is a very fine soundbar that delivers 4K Fire stick video, Alexa, and powerful quality audio. I am blown away by the features, quality, and performance of this soundbar at an amazing price point. I would definitely buy them again.
