PHILIPSB4000 Soundbar for TV, 2.0 Channel Sound, BT LE Audio, Easy Setup, EasyLINK, Roku TV Ready, Remote Control

I was looking for a soundbar for my mother in law’s new TCL Roku TV. The absolute simplest, no extras, plug and play option possible. This is it! It synched immediately with the TCL Roku TV via HMDI port 4, which is the ARC port although it’s not clearly labeled. The TV immediately connected and set it up. I put it behind the TV between the TV’s feet as it doesn’t fit underneath, but the TV barely blocks the front facing drivers, maybe 1/10th of an inch at most. I didn’t even need to put batteries in the soundbars remote - it just turns on and off and volume up and down with the TV’s remote. Good! Exactly what I needed. The sound is better than the TV by far, sounds balanced in its EQ curve, but this is obviously not for audiophiles nor does it claim to be. Did not try Bluetooth or anything else and don’t want to. I even would have bought something more expensive but I wanted something explicitly under-engineered for an older person and it delivers. 5 stars for simplicity and what it is at its price. NOTE: IT DOES NOT COME WITH ANY HDMI OR OPTICAL CABLES.

Good sound quality, easy to connect via HDMI arc to my Roku TV. ~$60 was a good price and I would recommend.

Easy setup. Has eARC. Comes with simple wall mounting brackets. Good sound quality. Good value. I am using this for my gaming center setup and this is a good quality add for the use case. I have this unit plugged into my TV using eARC and then the TV running to an HDMI splitter. No issues with changing sources and sound dropping out.

The media could not be loaded. I cannot believe Phillips is selling this trash..Connection was easy and sounds good but sometimes there is static in the sound. Turning it off and back on fixes it temporarily, but I'm not gonna keep doing that.. Im returning before the return window closes.

Very good product I have no problem sound as good enjoying it with my big screen thanks

Works ,but not any louder than tv speakers. Just fyi.

Very happy with this sound bar. Sounds great and doesn't break the bank. Super easy to install/connect. I bought one for my living room & was so pleased that I bought another one for my bedroom.

It is a good thing to used
