Review: It was easy to install and the wireless sub-woofer is a nice ... - PROs: For a bar of that price range it is unbeatable. It renders sounds for both lower and higher frequencies very well and works very well also at lower/normal volume for both movies/series and news channels. It was easy to install and the wireless sub-woofer is a nice addition and reasonably easy to synchronize with the base unit. The remote doesn't have an unnecessary amount of options and choices. The sound bar looks good, it's not too small nor to big and fits perfectly under a 50"-55" TV. CONs: HDMI connectors on the back of the sound bar were a little difficult of access/install. The Sky Box for the UK market interferes with the start of the unit. Subwoofer could be a little more responsive at lower volumes even at maximum bass settings. Could have made the most important + and - volume buttons on the remote a little larger/more obvious. Still noticeable performance difference with a high end full 5.1 sound system but we are not comparing apples to apples anymore. CONCLUSION: I would buy it again and would recommend it to anyone that is looking for a 2.1 sound bar system in that price range. Even much higher priced sound bars units I explored were far from to the performance of this one.
Review: which I hoped would interact with the TV easily, but I could not find one of a ... - Trying to match a soundbar to my late model Panasonic Plasma took me to several dead ends. Especially with the Panasonic range, which I hoped would interact with the TV easily, but I could not find one of a suitable quality and value. The good reviews for the Philips HTL5140B finally made my mind up and was just inside the budget I had set for this accessory. desertcart's delivery was amazing! Ordered Sunday morning, delivered within 24 hours. You have to be careful screwing the unit together. The screws are tiny and could cross-thread (small flat-head screwdriver required), but with care it went together in a couple of minutes. I used the HDMI ARC socket and hoped the soundbar and the TV would relate. No problems there, I went into the Panasonic self-testing menu and it recognised the soundbar as a Home Cinema System. This meant I could alter the volume with the Panasonic remote and only use the Philips' one for fine tuning. At first I thought the wire-free sub-woofer was not working, until I put on a recording of a war film. The bombs sounded very real and nasty! To get full value from the soundbar I wanted to use it as a music system for my classical collection. A Blu-ray of a concert performance revealed instruments I had never heard before - good start. The Bluetooth connected at once with my Dell laptop, which I use for storing recordings, including live ones in WAV format. Again an excellent sound. I have to keep the sub-woofer on minimum setting, otherwise my neighbour's ornaments could start falling off their shelves. With using the ARC socket I needed an extra HDMI lead to feed back into the TV. A medium priced one was fine and I linked it with my Freesat player which did not degrade the HD picture. All good so far! MAY 2016 I had some trouble with a poor signal, which turned out to be the HDMI cable being bent in the small plugin space under the soundbar. Fixed with a thinner cable. At the same time I found that on turning on from standby the unit went to full volume. My query to Phillips customer support brought me a reply I hope was a translation from Swedish or a similar language, as it was virtually unreadable. Basically it was saying either do a reset or download a software update. I have tried neither and now quickly turn the volume down before the sound comes on from the TV. The comments I made in the original review still hold, but I would say try to get a longer guarantee than one year, so you can replace it if a similar fault appears. As to Phillips customer service, I will not be buying any of their other products!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great sound, make sure you keep it well away from your wireless router!
*by M***N on 21 February 2015*

I have had to re-write this review after Colin pointed out why my 3rd unit appeared to be faulty. I hadn't had much luck with the first two units. The first had a faulty HDMI input socket so had to be returned. Great sound through the optical input though. Trouble-free replacement arranged by Amazon. The second unit had a faulty crossover unit, so all frequencies were played through both the sub-woofer and the soundbar producing a really weird sound. I had though been really impressed with the sound of the original unit and requested a replacement unit, thinking that as the two problems were unrelated I had just been very unlucky. However Amazon advised that due to a lot of reported problems with this item they were replacing all existing stock with a new batch, which would not be available for several weeks so I had to return it for a refund. This didn't automatically occur - I had to chase them when it didn't appear in my account- make sure you hang onto your collection slip if you ever have to return anything. Once I had given them the details from this the refund was processed within minutes. Thinking there would be no problems with the new stock I ordered a third one a few weeks later which was great - until the sub-woofer wireless connection kept dropping. This occurred no matter where the unit was placed - and I tried numerous places and distances from the soundbar. The comment by Colin identified the cause of the problem. Although I had moved the sub-woofer around, I hadn't moved the soundbar, and this sat immediately above the wireless router on the shelf below. Moving the router resolved the problem. Am now very pleased with his unit. There is a tendency for the bass to be a bit boomy at times, but this is resolved by turning down the bass.
