A:AnswerAs far as I know, eARC is for Atmos or DTS X. Polk Magnifi doesn't support Dolby Atmos and DTS X at the moment. With eARC you can go with other high-end bars.
A:AnswerYes, the center of the sound bar that has the border around it is the voice audio. This is an impressive sounding system for the size and price.

A:AnswerHello,
Since this is an Active speaker system, we do not have sensitivity measurements available for this product. Due to the design, it is able to project more sound efficiently which may be why you are finding it to be louder than your previous system.
A:AnswerSorry to learn that you are experiencing an issue with the soundbar. We want to learn more about your specific situation and make things right by providing some information and troubleshooting to help resolve the issue. We look forward to speaking with you.
