Best Buy has it on sale for $100 off the original price. I'm planning on jumping on that deal because I need a decent soundbar to make my Entertainment Room complete. Also, I already have a Sony Bravia TV so hooking it up will be effortless. Update: After giving the soundbar a thorough test this weekend, I have to say I’m very impressed. It delivered room filling sound with shows and movies. It was exactly what I was looking for. I love it.

I have sony tv and looking at this one. I'm contemplating between this one and Vizio M series 5.1, heard it'sreally good. I'm sure 5.1 is better but wondering if it's that much of a difference as far as sound quality and it's worth spending more.

I heard this soundbar today at Best Buy and instantly liked it so I ended up buying it. Sounds so nice.
