This Little Fella Gives BOSE Home Theater Systems A Run for Their Money
INITIAL REVIEW: Excellent! The Sound Bar is very easy to setup. When I first opened the box and realized how tiny the soundbar and subwoofer were, as someone who already has two elaborate Bose Home Theater Systems, I was skeptical whether it would produce any good sound. I was wrong! Although this cannot be compared to my high-end Bose systems, this little fella packs quite a few big sounds punches. I needed this for my bedroom flat TV where I do not need anything as heavy as my high-end Bose systems, and this soundbar works perfect with just the right amounts of punches and clarity. I love it! I highly recommend this soundbar.UPDATED REVIEW (04-13-2026):I initially gave this Sound Bar five stars after setting up the first one I purchased. Since then, I purchased two additional sets, then I noticed a major problem. The Optical port does not work in any of the three sets. Also, the Bluetooth does not work in two of the three sets. Very disappointing. I returned one set. Therefore, I am changing my review from five stars to only two stars.LAST UPDATED REVIEW (May 08, 2026):I purchased three Poseidon M60s Soundbars, but I returned one of them. Then I received an email from the manufacturer (seller) with heartfelt apologies and an offer for an upgrade. They sent me the upgraded Skywave F40. This Skywave F40 that I recently receive is a kind and unexpected replacement from the manufacturer (seller? for one of the two remaining Poseidon M60s (lower soundbar tier than the Skywave) that I purchased.I initially was not expecting this upgrade, but the manufacturer reached out to me and offered me an upgraded system. However, that does not, and should not, affect my review here. Although the Poseidon M60s are great (easy to use and have great sound, but I had a little issue with the Optical port); this Skywave replacement is a lot more advanced with more impressive features. For examples, it has forward-firing speakers, side-firing speakers, up-firing speakers, and two surround rear speakers (automatically paired and synched wirelessly). Moreover, the soundbar and sub-woofer of this Skywave are a lot more stylish and streamlined, with gold accents, and it fits any décor – whether hidden off sight or placed in open view.I have been using two separate BOSE 535 III Serries Home Theater system, which are outstanding. However, the Poseidon M60 and Skywave F40 almost rival the Bose systems I have in terms of sound clarity and the Skywave F40’s surround; and at a fraction of the costs of the Bose systems. In fact, the little fellas carry some nice punches and give the Bose systems a run for their money. For example, when watching a movie with the Skywave F40, and you see a vehicle or train coming from the northwest (front-left) of your big screen heading towards the southeast (rear-right); you can literally hear the sound coming from the front left side of the room, coming towards you, passing you by, and vanishing through the rear right side of the room behind you. That’s exactly what my BOSE systems do, they cost me thousands of dollars more. My conclusion: Both the Poseidon M60 and Skywave soundbars are simply marvelous; with the Skywave F40 also having the Bose edge.I can confidently say that both the Poseidon M60 and Skywave F40 deserve FIVE FULL STARS, especially at their price points.Ver másVer menos
