Polk Audio React Sound Bar, Dolby & DTS Virtual Surround Sound, Expandable to 5.1 with Matching React Subwoofer & SR2 Surround Speakers, Polk React

I previously tried a different brand sound bar with Alexa that was less expensive and had issues connecting to network. I use a separate vlan for IoT devices and suspect that was the issue, but the bar may have been defective. Either way, this one connected through the Alexa app instantly and works perfect. Connected to TV at first without the subwoofer and was really impressed by the sound from this bar. Great sound and surprising bass overall for as small and inexpensive as it is. Connecting to the sub took maybe 30 seconds and it added a lot on the low end. Alexa works just like any of my other echos, listens well and responds accurately. When I change sound mode she speaks the mode but it is not loud and looks like they fixed that issue. Sound is pretty good for a sound bar, definitely built for vocals. Lots of mids which is not the best for listening to music if you are looking for audiophile quality but I have no complaints. TV dialog is much clearer than TV speakers and the sub adds great bass extension. Remote is nice, recessed buttons are a bit odd but it works good and doesn't feel cheap. Only wish I had was there was better settings control in the app that would match the ability of a regular echo. Limited but not limiting. Overall highly recommend and would definitely purchase again.

Esta genial y mas si le agregas el subwoofer y las bocinas extras inalámbricas al principio se subia solo el volumen al máximo sin yo moverla a nada me imagino que una vez que se actualiza la alexa interna ya no me dio ese problema pero si la recomiendo ampliamente

I have been a fan of Polk Audio for a while now and this med level performance speaker does not disappoint. The Alexa compatibility along with a solid little remote makes for easy listening. The 4 listening modes actually do create different listening experiences. If your looking to enter the sound bar market this one is worth your time.

I have had this sound bar for many months now and I use it almost everyday. The sound quality is great for watching television and for listening to music. My biggest tip would be to connect this sound bar to a 5ghz wifi connection rather than 2.4ghz. I started this off on a 2.4ghz connection as the manual recommends, but kept running into connection issues. The sound bar would randomly drop out of the Echo music group every so often. It was annoying and troublesome and I almost gave up on it. Then I switched it to a 5ghz connection and I have not had any issues since! It works every time it's supposed to, the way it's supposed to. It fits right in with an Alexa/Echo ecosystem - this may as well be an Amazon device. I have this set up in a multi-room music group along with other Echo devices and they all work together in a music group seamlessly. I can use my Alexa app to change the settings on this sound bar, including the bass and treble. It also has the "do not disturb" setting like other echo devices. This is my primary Echo device in the living room - it responds to the name "Alexa". It speaks only when I use the wake word, that's it. Volume can be adjusted using the buttons on the bar, the remote control, or by voice command. "Alexa, volume #" (mute, max, or anywhere between 0 to 10). I would definitely recommend this sound bar to anyone who has an Echo ecosystem and to those who often use multi-room music groups.

My journey to find a worthy successor to my Signa S2 was longer than originally anticipated but thanks to amazon's amazing return policy, I was finally able to find the soundbar I was looking for. At first I tried a Signa S4, while it was clearer and more detailed than the Signa S2, the bass was severely lacking. The Polk Audio React soundbar is nice and clear, a surprising amount of bass from just the soundbar. I picked up the matching subwoofer and well... To say I was impressed is quite the understatement. The subwoofer makes a huge difference, definitely worth keeping an eye out for sales. The Sr2 rear speakers that turn this modular system into 5.1 surround sound really complete the set and absolutely blew my mind. It's everything I was looking for and more. I couldn't be happier. As for Alexa being built in, I don't even bother with it since I've got a full sized echo device already in the living room.
