I'm leaning towards the Klipsch R20B so far... what others do y'all recommend that I look at? Also what is the difference between the R series and the RSB series? TIA

That sound bar was just on woot the other day for 220 I think. I was going to butilize it but got side tracked.

Unc, I've been damn happy with our Bose SoundCloud 300 & subwoofer. The app works well too for streaming music.

I'll look at that one, thanks.
Anyone care to explain what "4K Ultra-HD Video pass-through" is and why would a soundbar need it...? That seems to be the main difference between R & RSB series.

Will this sync with the sound touch 10s and other wifi speakers like sonos?
If so this is what I would go with. Or just get sonos.

HDMI Pass-Through passes video and audio signals from a High Definition (HD) source such as an Apple TV or a HD Set Top Box to a Home Theater System via a HDMI cable. The Home Theater System plays the audio from the HD source through its own speakers and sends the unaltered video signal to a TV via a second HDMI cable.
Id get the pass through if it were me

I got my parents that one a couple of years back. Gets LOUD. Crisp highs, and the bass hits hard enough to shake their house. They have it turned to maybe 10%. Imaging isn't that great, but it is a soundbar after all. The dynamic mode it has is useless
As a soundbar/sub combo, it is one of the best bang for the bucks

Do you have any Sonos speakers at all? If so, I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend the Sonos Playbar. That thing is nice and sounds great in my house. It is expensive but we already had 4 other Sonos products in our house so it fits in nicely with our setup.

Yes. I have it in my home. I sell both Bose and Sonos so I've A & B the hell out of these things. As far as the Soundbar goes I think the Bose sounds better for movies but the Sonos Play speakers sound better than the individual Soundtouch speakers. I do love that the Bose has buttons on the Sountouch speakers, I rarely even open the app to play music. I also prefer the Bose app to the Sonos. Both are great products.

Wanna get me the hookup on the Sonos Sub? I know I'm your favorite person here.

So I could go with the sonos soundbar and potentially add to the system later on?
Posted on 2/24/17 at 9:11 am to Uncle JackD
Yes.

Yes, that's one of the biggest draws to it that other companies have started to copy. That being said, Sonos is expensive but to my ear ALL of their speakers sound good. The Play:1, Play:3 and even the old and new model Play:5 and of course the Playbar.

R20B. By imaging, I meant the surround sound-ishness that they all claim to have
Posted on 2/26/17 at 10:28 pm to TigerWise
Bose speakers are great ,good surround sound

I got the Pioneer SP-SB23W and have to recommend it despite the mono Bluetooth issue.

Fellas... quick question.. if I hook up my soundbar klipsch RBS11 to my TV via HDMI ARC, will all devices plugged into tv (ATV4, fire stick, XBOX) all play through soundbar? Is this the easiest way to go about this? Thanks.
Posted on 3/2/17 at 6:04 pm to Uncle JackD
In theory yes but it's not always the case. I've seen some TVs not send audio for the app it's running. Worst case just run an optical cable to the sound bar.
