Sound is very good and setup was easy. I like it having multiple HDMI inputs so that I have enough total HDMI inputs for the various devices attached to the TV. The only issue is trying to get the TV and soundbar to sync up when changing various inputs with the universal remote. However, this is more about me getting the settings right versus anything wrong with the Soundbar

I've been wanting this Polk Audio system for a year. Best Buy had the best price. I have had this system tested in my house and had wanted it since. The remote rear speakers are truly wireless. That was the biggest buying point. The sound is great. The sound modes are great. It's a great audio system.

Salesman tried to talk me into another trendy/popular brand. I've always enjoyed Polk and this one is certainly no disappointment. I bought it for use in a motorhome and it is awesome. Sound quality is great. Amazing how right left separation can be heard. I didn't expect that from a sound bar as I have always had a full theater set up in my house. The subwoofer has plenty of power and low end. The Bluetooth connectivity has been flawless. the rear surrounds have plenty of adjustability and can be heard quite well. I do recommend this speaker system. A great addition. All stars.

I bought this to replace the Nakamichi Shockwafe 7.1.2 because i wasnt impressed with the performance. And oh boy i made the right decision. After plugging everything in, i played Superman, John Wick Parabellum and Gravity amd OMG, it was awesome. Its even better than my previous Samsung Q990B which i returned because it has gotten defective. The sound quality is awesome. Fight scenes has become more intense. Very happy now and this one is for keeps

I love the sound and quality of the bar. The smaller speakers add a great range to the volume and extra noises involved in what you are listening too. The bass is full of power

Great buy! Sound quality is excellent. Sleek design allows the base to fit neatly on the tv console without taking up too much space. In comparison to some of the other popular brands, this set is amazing for the price. Very satisfied!

After purchasing a Sony soundbar and sub for our master bedroom and returning it because it just didn’t sound good to me, I decided to give the Polk Audio MagniFi Max AX a try. Wow! This system sounds every bit as good as my main Sonos system that I paid about 3X for. Very pleased with the quality and dynamic range without muddying. Excellent sub too.

After roughly a month of use, I can say that I am very happy with this purchase. The sound is fantastic and fills my two story high family room phenomenally. I considered the JBL sound bar with the detachable rear channel speakers (I am a JBL fan), but went with the Polk because of the " permanent" nature of their rear speaker placement. In a nutshell, great sound quality at a fair price. If I had to make the same decision again, it would be the same.

Easy to set up and easy to use. Sounds great. Especially like the dialogue booster for those movies and shows when everyone is a low talker and then the soundtrack blares.

Got this at a good discount. The sound is great. Sound quality is good. The surround effect and dolby effect is good. Adding the best point is its bass.

Best surround sound system I have ever had. I had a really small Samsung bar and sub. It’s not even in the same league. Movie theater sound. You can feel the weight and you know those speakers are good. It’s just honestly amazing. Goes well with my 70in Samsung and probably any tv. It is pricey but I thought why am I gonna shell out for a couple watts. Get something that’s worth the money.
