  1. Does not work with common' Remotes' 0 people found this helpful
    Overall Performance

    I learned the hard way that I could not use my standard remote. Spent several hours, researching, buying, setting up.... I called tech support, they said it will only work with the high end remotes that you can 'program/learn'. This is a show stopper for me, I have a hard enough time keeping track of one remote.

  2. DO NOT BUY. IT WILL FAIL. See Updates 0 people found this helpful
    Overall Performance

    I have two minor complaints about this item:1. The remote can be a little finicky and doesn't work. I think the issue is with the receiver. However, this is rare and not a major concern.2. There is no visual indicator of the volume. It would have been nice to have something like that. Again, this isn't the biggest deal in the world since you have to adjust the volume to actually see it on competitor's units (Zvox).3. It doesn't appear that I can control the volume with the TV/cable remote.4. The bluetooth range is poor to average. Zvox units are much better at maintaining the connection.However, all in all, it's a pretty good product for the price. I may relegate it to the bed room and put the Zvox unit in the living room as it doesn't have the same issues. I wanted a different company's unit since Zvox and iOS don't let you rename speakers and it's difficult to know which one you're connecting to over BT.Update: 6 months later the unit now shuts off on its own. It happens on either input (especially when the optical connection is plugged in). They will make you pay to ship the non-functional unit back to them. Will never do business with Fluance again. Lesson learned.Update 2: Received a replacement unit that failed again in 6 months. 2/2 failed in 6 months. I won’t won’t be paying to ship it back again. I’m done with Fluance.

  3. Optical Never Worked; Phono Jack failed in 24 Hours 0 people found this helpful
    Overall Performance

    This is a nice idea, but it fails all round in design.Quality Control is nil. Both inputs (optical, phono) functionless.Optical never worked (tried on 3 different SMART TVs - LG, Samsung, Sony). Failed on all three. Tried three different optical cables (nothing).Phono-jack worked for 24 hours along with loud buzz (not grounded properly and no way to ground to plastic chassis). Random loud pops and clicks. Obviously, connections not secured, nor soldered correctly.While packaging seems solid, doesn’t really matter when the device arrives broken. Without proper care at factory origin or testing, this product will forever remain a failure.When it was playing, sound was a disappointment. I’ve heard $20 computer USB speakers produce better sound. In short, a good-looking product that does nothing relevant. Serious internal design issues and poor sound performance.My suggestion (and I mean this sincerely) the company needs to hire engineers that know what they are doing. The owner(s) need to monitor QC (Quality Control) which seems entirely absent. You can check this by the number of returns on any product. More than 5% fails on any product, should tell the company owner that serious issues are occurring on the product line. And need qualified management to correct.I don’t think this is purposeful obsolescence where a company (e.g. Logitech) makes money by building equipment the purposefully fails after 6 months, so you are forced to purchase again. I think this is just oversight to quality control. May keep package delivery people in a job, but frustrating for the end-user. - Verified Store
