Hisense 2.1 CH 240W Bluetooth Soundbar with Visualised Built-in Subwoofer

I got this as my Sony seemed to have an issue with the built in speaker on the right hand side. This was really easy to install, I was actually surprised how much things have moved on from the days of yore where you had to wire every speaker in your 5.1 across your room. I guess you still need power but one less cable. The subwoofer to my amazement was wireless! In terms of connectivity, I opted to use HDMI ARC. The experience is virtually plug and play. There is a delay when starting the TV, about 10 seconds as a voice tells you power on and then paired and connected. The device does not have a standby mode which your TV most likely does. After maybe 45min-1h the soundbar will disconnect from the TV. You need to manually restart it or restart the TV. Occasionally, it will says power on. I believe this is only common with OLED TVs like mine as they are never off and shortly after shutting it off a pixel refresh function begins. This might end up scaring you when your TV eventually does a long pixel refresh (depends on brand but could be once 2 months) and turns the speakers on in the middle of the night. The audio quality is excellent, it’s very bass heavy. I have the bass turned down but I also live in a flat. The treble is good enough, perhaps somewhat tinny but very good compared to built in speakers albeit broken in my case. The speakers are very loud, or rather not very linear in volume setting. In my case the system takes over the inbuilt one and the TV knows that. The remote even controls the “Sound System”, therefore it’s not possible to create a buffer on the volume by using the remote to reduce to source output. I’m sure it will be somewhere in the settings but I’m too lazy to check. As a result, my other working Sony can be up to 45 on certain movies. With these speakers I don’t go above 10. As such, with a louder source like Spotify I can often be on 2 or 3. At nighttime or when someone is sleeping even 1 seems slightly too loud. The size is very acceptable and of standard for this type of product I’d say. Just a long bar that’s wall mountable and a rather compact subwoofer. The materials are plastic but they look nice enough. Once set up you’d never touch it anyway. The “interface” consist of an LED through which you adjust certain EQ settings. This is fairly straightforward again but perhaps not very precise as the setting is translated through the brightness of the LED light. So not very precise. You need two 3 pin plug sockets as the subwoofer has its own power supply. This makes this slightly less versatile but certainly manageable. For the price you pay for this you can’t get better really. Nothing to complain about. I’d recommend this if you’re looking to improve sound quality of TV on a budget. It has won numerous award for best value for money soundbar too. Sure, you can get a £500 one but if it’s for a spare room etc there no need really. This is more than capable.

It's pretty versatile and can be adapted as required given the various modes. Seems to be getting better sound qualiry as it beds in. A real beast when required. Easy to set up and operate. Seems pretty solid and well made. Good value. The only criticism is that stickers are glued solid to the top so have left them in place as they leave a sticky residue that looks a nightmare to remove.

Overall I rate this sound bar 9/10 ( -1 for quality control of originally received items that had to be returned) Value 9.9/10 -0.1 V small chance that you might find something branded that is better in the price range Performance 9/10 -1 Bass can be slightly overdone especially while using BT on some units ( adjustable ) Build Quality 9/10 -1 One of the units I kept had an slight mark on the remote and a button that Features 9/10 -1 Voice guidance is a bit quirky more voice options would be a + Warranty 9.5/10 -0.5 For possible extra warranty . 2 year still very good for the type of product Returns 10/10 Comfortable knowing any problems will be dealt with without quibble by Amazon or Hisense Originally Bought two sound bars to pair up with our new Hisense E7pro 144hz 50" + 43" TV's (Living room and sons bedroom) its another story but both those TV's had faults and had to be returned . The 50" developed a green stuck pixel after just a few days use . From the start the image also looked out of focus causing an uncomfortable squinting sensation while watching content . Coil whine while in standby mode was unbearable although with the unit switched on it was ok . The only solution would have been to turn the power off at the plug while not in use ( inconvenient ). Colour and brightness settings out of the box looked bad and even after adjustments they still seemed out . Returned unit to the seller for an exchange and the new unit is perfect like night and day . All the functions work as advertised and the onboard system is snappy . Loads of useful functions ability to add all kinds Bluetooth devices ( earphones speakers etc .... ) voice control . Gaming and using a high end PC through it is a great experience some older SD content can be a bit clunky in HD or 4K high refresh rate gaming it really shines The 43" Had a small scratch on the glass screen that we noticed while peeling the screen film off . While trying it out noticed it was slightly superior to the 50" in colour + brightness . SD tracking of dark scenes looked a bit better. Both screens have VA panels which have their advantages and disadvantages and there are limited low price high refresh rate tv's on the market . I find the colours, use of brightness and blacks are better than an ips TV ( UHD led ) providing the viewing angle doesn't exceed 45 degree's which it doesn't in my situation . The 50" struggles occasionally on some dark scenes to track the image it rarely happens in HD or 4k content on either set but the 43" is clearly better probably due to its size . The positives using it for gaming far outweigh the negatives of some of the SD content tried . The settings menu's can be individually adjusted which is very convenient once fully setup . Game mode works and the menu's are useful 120hz/FPS tony hawks is awesome on PS5 . 4k counterstrike 144hz/FPS running from gaming pc with 4070ti Super 16gb is excellent Both TV's now fine after replacement and soo are the HS2000 sound bars. faults listed on those below The First unit was curved slightly the unit would not sit level on my TV unit with either side floating . The controller had scratches on it and several inconsistent button switches. The sound bar itself also had noticeable scratching around the function buttons on both top panels and the remote. Sound wise it was bad . The bass was uncontrollable even at the lowest settings without surround sound on especially while using Bluetooth. The whole unit vibrated like crazy absolute nightmare fail . The Second unit was in perfect condition but the remote had a few inconsistent switches. Sound wise it had much less bass than the first unit but the right hand side of the unit made a rattling noise with very little volume like something was loose inside . It weighed 30g less than the first unit strangely ?? The Third unit is perfect sound is huge , surround sound is great . Even while playing heavy bass tracks using Bluetooth with the bass turned up full I tried at FULL volume to test there is no noticeable vibration or distortion . Bass is punchy . Sound is room filling , clear and vibrant. Ideal for a party . Using hdmi arc everything works through the TV remote voices are clear and sound is even better than while using BT. Bass comes in when it should but the many settings mean if your having a quiet movie night it can be toned down without detriment . I was shockingly surprised how much better it sounds than the TV's speaks although it lacks Dolby atoms the surround sound works well to throw the sound and highlight normally unnoticeable noises. Value for money 10/10 Only negative is it came in demo mode which took a while to find out how to turn off . Weight same as second unit The Fourth unit is 98% perfect on the same settings it has just a bit more bass than the third unit but much less than the first . Its only noticeable when using bluetooth but its still not overdone . One button on the remote was inconsistent with all of the others but is still fine and usable . Weight same as the first unit . Few points id mention when using an iphone with bluetooth using the volume up or down on the iphone turns the sound up in multiple increments at a time . Using the supplied controller or slider bar on the iphone defeats this . I find it a bit of a quirk like the regional accent of the voice prompt which we find highly amusing . If Hisense kept the price reasonable ( below £100 ) and introduced this product with some extra voice profiles and some RGB lighting focussing more on gamers I think it would be a near absolute perfection . The styling is nice and modern compared to my BOSE solo series II and I can confirm that the sound better louder clearer and has more bass. . In conclusion the Hs2000 and E7 pro TV combo is a winner for the price standing upto and exceeding performance and quality of some well established brands that are might I add far above its price point . It could be I was just unlucky with quality control on some of the items received aside from that I'm very satisfied .

We hummed & hawed about for ages about the soundbar we needed to buy & read many reviews. Our only criteria we needed an ‘all in one’ to replace a Sony soundbar with separate subwoofer which we’d paid quite a bit for but only lasted 7yrs. The subwoofer died no power going to it whatsoever & in the last few years even the tv engineers couldn’t get the soundbar to switch on with the tv, so many remotes had to be out just to get everything up & running. So what a joy this Hisense HS200 has turned out to be. Everything was easy (well nothing these days comes with instructions you can peruse - my only criticism, you need to look it up online). That said it came with a wall template for screwing to the wall & a quick set up guide. We put in the plug connected the hdmi cable & we’re up & running, no other controls needed, switches on & off with the tv & it announces that the soundbar is on or off accordingly. We don’t have an over large room so didn’t need the extra speakers but the sound is fine & for the price a really good buy, so much so I’ve even recommended it to a friend.

Got it at an exceptional price if you get it less than £100 it’s a bargain highly recommend well-made easier to use. Easy to connect sounds amazing well

ممتازة جدا توها وصلتني وجربتها انصحكم فيها + مكتوب ان فيها مدخل eArc لكن الحقيقة ARC بس كتجربة اولى انصحكم وبقو

Rien à dire très bien

Very nice sound for the size

Pocas veces me detengo a realizar una reseña, y en esta ocasión, me he sentido obligado a contar mi experiencia, así que aquí vamos. La barra de sonido con subwoofer HS2100 es un excelente sistema de sonido, viene con diferentes modos de ecualización y una opción para sonido surround, ofrece conexión HDMI arc, salida óptica, salida análoga, lector de USB y conexión Bluetooth, sin embargo, yo quiero hablar encarecidamente de lo bien que se escucha la música en Hi-Fi. A diferencia de otras barras de sonido (Sony, JBL y Samsung que he tenido) esta barra Hisense tiene un sonido natural, es decir no tiene amplificados graves o agudos lo cuál se agradece mucho con música clásica, jazz, blues e instrumental; el volumen es de buena potencia y conectado vía HDMI arc no tendrás necesidad de subir demasiado el volumen. La sonoridad espacial es comparable al sonido Harman Kardon sin gastar cientos de dólares, por supuesto, así que tendrás una excelente opción de alta fidelidad pero ahorrando bastante. Las películas se escuchan asombroso, especialmente si tiene Blu Ray disc con sonido dts, en mi caso escuché un concierto de George Michael y pude apreciar por completo de un sonido nítido, poderoso pero sin llegar a aturdir todo bien equilibrado. ¡Jugar videojuegos con este sistema es una locura! El subwoofer hace bastante bien su trabajo, brinda dimensiones a los escenarios de juego y además los diálogos se escuchan perfectamente. En resumen, ¡No lo dudes, el sonido te va a encantar! Aprovecha las ofertas y descuentos de temporada. Pros: * Diferentes entradas de sonido (HDMI arc, óptica, análoga, Bluetooth y lector de USB) * Audio sin añadidos de graves o agudos * Subwoofer inalámbrico * Compatible con Dolby y dts * Diálogos claros * No requiere configuración o conocimientos técnicos Cons: * Al encender se escucha un diálogo en inglés breve, podría haberse prescindido del diálogo * La barra se siente muy ligera, el chasis de plástico es ligero * Se hubiera agradecido una app para configurar desde el smartphone el ecualizador

Delivery was quick- The product is amazing, the sound is crystal clear and the bass? oh my, its great. Great soundbar for the price. its a 5 star review from me.
