ALDI Bauhn ASBWS-0716 (Jul 2016)

Better than Sonos? – Good sound from a range of sources, Bluetooth, internet radio on wifi, optical, HDMI, so whatever you're wanting to listen to, you can with a surprising natural quality sound with even reasonable bass response considering no woofer. For it's very low price it compares better than gear costing 5 to 10 times, recommend very highly!

Poor sound, slow response, but at least it broke – Owned for 2 days, before it broke. It just sits there with the red light on (standby) and won't power on, with the remote or the power button on the side. The sound quality was rather poor (even for a soundbar) Switching the input was tedious, as you only have one button that you have to press multiple times. The tedious part is that it takes 2-3 seconds before it changes input, and you can't press the source button again until it's done. So, even if you know you need the input 4-presses away, you have to press, wait, press, wait...

The coloured LED, that shows which input you're on, has several colours that look similar, just to make it more annoying.

As the local store is out of stock, we've been directed to another store, 45 minutes away, if we want a replacement. We'll be getting a refund instead, at the local store.
