OBAGE HT-244 130 Watts 4.1 Home Theatre System with Optical in, Bluetooth 5.0, USB, FM, AUX

Writing this after over 10 days of useage.This home theatre delivers what it promises . Clarity is everything . Bass is not loud, but is very deep and you won't get tiered after listening with this deep bass. Music lovers who prefer to feel almost studio quality will love it . Every instrument is cristall clear. You will be surprised to notice that the instrument sounds don't get spread / fadeded into others , instead , it gives perfect as it is sould with instrument seperation. And it keep silent even after the spread of bass / treble.I had used MI sound bar, creative home theatre and samsung soundbar till date . Obage home theatre is totally different . Unlike other sound systems which process the sounds based on its signatures, this speakers gives balanced ,distortion free clear music.Normally, soundbars and home theatre systems will be fine tuned to perform well for producing movie sounds, but obage does perfectly well as a TV attachment for movie viewing and perfect for music listening .Don't expect too much fancy on the looks. Even the remote, preset equilisers don't give much of options. You may have to contented with normal settings for equiliser and use manual knob for setting up to bass and treble . But once it is done for your room settings, the sound it produces will give you satisfaction .I tried to use Android equiliser in mobile when playing contents from mobile phone. Even , increasing any settings from normal will only reduce the quality. If you increase mid, it also reduces bass and treble. Finally , after use of almost 10 days, foud the solution with Android eq. Set manual bass and treble at the maximum first. Use Android equaliser in the normal mode ( assuming every frequency already set maximum at zero, not beyond) .Then , start reducing frequencies in the eq accordingly , like reduce mid so that bass and treble will sound more. Reduce treble and bass so mid will sould more!Trust, even without doing any of the eq settings, it delivers perfect sound. As I live in flat , I never wanted loud bass , instead wanted deep bass with room filling listening experience , which normally is offered by high end music systems like Sony home theatre, but obage gives same high end sound quality with low cost.Perfect for music lovers and perfect for movie viewers . This is a two in one perfection , rarely offered by many sound systems.Trust ! You won't be tiered of listening it it's soud even if you listen to it for long hours.Most Value for moneyQuality !Hope obage offers better after sales also

Well, I believe the true highlight of a speaker system is the tonality and detail retrieval, the tuning although seems rigid, but can be tweaked with Equalizer application in your smartphone or whatever source you're using.Now let's go to the more neglected topic when it comes to sound systems, that is, the acoustics of your room and the speaker positioning, I can't stress this enough that, these two are major bottlenecks in the pipeline of delivering sound to your ears through a vibrating membrane. It took me almost close to 15 hrs to figure out the best positioning of these speakers in my room, and voila, the sound improved two folds.Now coming to this particular set of speakers, these are no doubt the best you can get under 20,000. But we'll have to keep in mind that, the sound I'm majorly stressing on is the music part not the cinema part. For cinema I think it's better to go for an elaborate 5.1 setup with all the bells and whistles of Dolby and DTX codecs. But if your purpose is to listen to music, these are top of the cream, for movies though there is nothing to write home about.Also, find a suitable treble and bass balancing point for un-coloured sound.The looks are good, made of thick wood, also these are heavy, really heavy, that to some point gives an idea of the quality of material used.The only gripe that I have is the remote control, it doesn't have bass and treble adjustment which sometimes get infuriating. That's why the 4 stars.Overall, a great music system, grab it while you can.
