    • nothing comes close in this price range
Style: DHT-S517 + Dolby Atmos
Awesome sound quality and good sound stage in music mode. Movie mode kind of shrinks the sound stage but enhances the dialogues (this is a killer feature and works as advertised), wish they had implemented this better. I think Denon is lying, this doesn't sound like a mere 150w system, its plenty loud and doesn't distort at high volumes !! Very minimalistic look, just the gray fabric at the front with the tiny Denon logo. The remote looks good, but feels cheap, the button are spongy and needs a firm push. The remote is from the 90's, you need to point it head straight at the soundbar for it register a press !! The only reason I bought this over the Polk S4 was the hdmi input with 4k HDR pass-through, this is very important if you have old TV which doesn't have eARC or if it cant decode atmos. It is also convenient to have input port on the soundbar, saves a hdmi port on the TV :) I got it for $249 and its a steal for that price (considering how other soundbars are priced with similar feature set) ... show more

    • Love the Bar But the Remote Not so Much
Style: DHT-S517 + Dolby Atmos
Review Image by DMAdam47
Having had a Denon turntable and a receiver in the past I felt confident in getting their sound bar. I have had it for about three months now and am pretty pleased with it for the most part. Music is quite good with good highs, midrange and the sub doing its job nicely but I would like to get a better voice tone though. My big gripe is the remote which is pretty much useless. The whole face is coated with rubber and very hard to give a solid push unless you use your fingernail. I finally got a third party remote that has the traditional rocker switches that work great and only cost $16.00 and more than worth it. Outside of the remote I really like it for the quality and price. ... show more

    • Great unit for the price
Style: DHT-S517 + Dolby Atmos
I'm not an expert on sound equipment... I just wanted something with some BOOM and could actually hear dialogue in movies. I never heard of Denon so I was skeptical and didn't realize they've been around for over 100 years. I pulled the trigger because of all the great reviews and wasn't disappointed. Like others stated, setup was amazingly simple. I had it up and running in a few minutes with no issues. I tested it by watching Fast 5 and was blown away how great the movie sounded. I love that it turns on and off when with the TV power. The remote is very simple to use and effective. I know there much better units out there, but if you're like me and just want something that sounds good during movies and use as a stereo in the living room, you can't go wrong with this unit. ... show more

    • Outstanding TV Sound System
Style: DHT-S517 + Dolby Atmos
Super duper; couldn't be better. Very clean sound and with good base. Can even adjust the voice layer to make it stand out better (and this works!). Would buy again in a heartbeat!

    • Denon bugs
Style: DHT-S517 + Dolby Atmos
Bought this soundbar to replace an older Polk Audio soundbar. Both had wireless subwoofers. The Polk was giving me some problems (it would not turn-on sometimes even though the on/off switch was on). I'd have to go to the soundbar and turn it off and back on and it would then work. Then I lost the remote (how does anybody lose a remote in the house and never find it again). The Polk soundbar actually was a better sounding soundbar, but I had to find another. The Denon actually sounds pretty good. Even though the drivers are smaller than the Polk's, it presents a good sound stage. The subwoofer is actually a little better than the Polk subwoofer. The Polk sub always sounded boomy no matter what the level was. With the Denon, it has Dolby Atmos which does give a surround sound option which actually sounds good. Definitely not as good as real surround sound (that's a no-brainer), but does expand the sound stage. It does have a few other interesting controls for selecting movie, night and music settings. There's also a three-setting dialogue enhancer which brings voices more to the front in case you have hearing issues (I do - Rock and Roll bands). Now to the "Denon bugs" headline I used. When I opened the box (which was well sealed), there were a dozen or more cockroach-like insects running around in the box. I had to quickly take the box outside in case one got loose in the house. Both the soundbar and the subwoofer were well wrapped inside the box so I didn't have any "bug" issues with them and the accessories were also in sealed bags. If this had not been the case, I would have sealed the box back up and returned it to Amazon. I'm not sure if the cockroaches were Chinese (where the soundbar came from) or American. I hear Chinese cockroaches are mean-spirited. ... show more

    • Well Balanced Soundbar
Style: DHT-S517 + Dolby Atmos
Review Image by Nick
I researched sound bars a lot and listened to most of them in stores. This is a great soundbar if you want something understated and well balanced that could play clear dialogues at night and music during day and has some basic Dolby Atmos effects, however if you are looking for loud music with thumping bass and don't care much about dialogue enhancements you'll be more happy with the JBL or Sony which have a much more powerful bass and volume at this price point. It also doesn't come with any connectivity or smart features other than good old bluetooth, If that is very important to you, get the Sonos. ... show more

    • Great sound at a great price.
Style: DHT-S517 + Dolby Atmos
The voice enhancement feature works great. I was able to turn the subtitles off and still hear the dialogue. It is wider than I expected, but I guess it's just wide enough for the 7 speakers. Overall, it provides great sound for a bedroom or other relatively small space. Well worth the $250 I spent on it ... show more
