To have a sound bar, I mean Surround Bar, (there IS a huge difference, by the way) sound and look this good, its like a dream come true. I used to have pretty good rear-channel speakers in the ceiling at my last house, but my new place made it cost-prohibitive to retrofit the same approach. What to do? The 500CHT gives me a wider sweet spot, so more people in the room at different seating positions are able to enjoy a very cool psycho-acoustic surround sound experience. My SurroundBar is mounted to the TV which is on an articulating (tilt/swivel) wall mount. This way, I can experience great surround sound in TWO separate seating areas (Dining table and Living Room couch) with ONE AV system! Dialog is crisp, and with an accompanying subwoofer, its like I have massive speakers. Blows my guests away, they can't believe how good it sounds.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I have this sound bar for about a year now. I could not be more pleased. This sound bar replaced two Klipsch Heresy speakers up, a Klipsch center channel speaker and two Panasonic speakers for the rear. All speakers were over twenty years old.
I have a small room that I have my equipment in. The sound bar fills the room with good quality clear sound. The 500 CHT is connected to a new Yamaha RX-V673. By the way I am running two sub woofers. One is a Yamaha and the other is a Polk Audio.

I purchased this to replace an awesome set of Polk floor standing speakers I had for 12 years. For smaller rooms, paired with a good subwoofer, it really does the job. The wiring harness is perfect for mounting it on the wall, and it looks REALLY good under your flat panel. Worth the money if you need a sound bar because it may well be the best one out - it just KILLS the econobar we have in our bedroom made by one of the other "leading" brands.

Would probably buy one if I could find one. I have looked 200 k in all direction and none to be had.
