Product Description
From the Manufacturer
From the Manufacturer Boston Acoustics presents the TVee Model Two Soundbar and Wireless Subwoofer. This remarkable new sound system is designed from the ground up to be exceedingly easy to set up and use. It consists of a slim, single "soundbar" that can be placed above or below a television, or it can be easily mounted on the wall. The matching wireless subwoofer can be placed anywhere in the room to deliver added dynamic bass response. Installing this compact system is fast and easy, allowing you to enjoy fantastic sound wherever your television may be.
Convenient "One Wire" Hook-Up with No Additional Remote Required
Everything about the TVee Model Two is designed to make it quick and easy for anyone to add enhanced performance to their television viewing. Simply plug a single RCA cable from the Soundbar into your television's line-level output. The included subwoofer uses a wireless connection to communicate with the Soundbar. This allows it to be placed virtually anywhere in the room--even in a corner or behind the couch--and it will still provide tight bass response. Adding to your convenience, the TVee system features a special Learning Mode that will learn your existing remote control's volume, mute and power commands, eliminating the need for a separate remote control.
Advanced Components and Design
Like all Boston Acoustics products, the TVee Model Two utilizes the highest quality loudspeaker components and housing materials to achieve superior build quality and natural sound. TVee's Soundbar features four 2.5-inch mid-bass drivers and two half-inch dome tweeters to deliver clear, powerful audio. The Soundbar's innovative enclosure and digital processing spread the sound throughout the room, creating a wide soundstage that eliminates the need, and mess, of costly satellite speakers. A 2.4GHz wireless connection lets you place the 6-inch, down-firing powered subwoofer anywhere in the room. Delivering a total system output of over 100 watts RMS, the TVee Model Two adds fantastic sound at an incredible value.

Be very clear about this- it is designed to enhance/replace your TV's speakers. It is not a 'virtual' surround bar or a 'surround' system. For me it was perfect. I am trying to keep my room simple. I have the plasma mounted on the wall above the TV. All the components are in the basement controlled via the Next Generation remote extender. I don't want speakers/wires all over the room. But in a big room, the speakers on my TV were terrible. People sounded like they were talking inside a cardboard box. Dialog was tough to hear. I needed something to fix that and this works perfectly.
One nice feature is that it turns on when it senses incoming signal and then turns off a few minutes after you turn off the TV.
The sound is good, almost great. It's plenty loud for my room (16 x 20 living room that opens up to a dining room and 2 story vaulted ceiling). The hookup is simple- TV audio out (or headphone out) to the speaker. Plug it into the wall. Plug the subwoofer into a power outlet and you're done.
I set mine up on the headphone jack and control the volume through the TV. You can set it up to learn your remote in about 5 minutes and control the speaker bar directly with your remote. Very cool. I programmed mine from 12 feet away and it works fine (some reviews posted problems with the remote- most of them programmed up close and then it wouldn't work). But when I mute the internal speakers on my TV I get annoying "Not Available" screens when I use the volume buttons. When it's plugged into the headphone jack the TV still mutes the internal speakers but I get a visual volume bar on the screen. I like having the visual bar.
So between the auto on/off feature, and controlling through the TV, this thing basically works like the internal TV speakers, I don't have to fumble around with yet another remote or reprogram my existing remote.
The bottom line: it sounds MUCH better than the internal speakers. It does what it says it will do.
The cons:
Expensive for a stereo setup, but the simplicity was what I wanted. I looked at a cheaper sony bar but I would have been running wires through walls and the basement. The wireless sub is a great idea and is what sold me. If you don't need wireless, the Sony bar seems to have more inputs including digital, and I think has some equalizer controls. I went for the wireless sub instead.
There's no equalizer, two little bass and treble knobs would go a long way. You could probably get great sound. My TV has a very nice equalizer- but it only affects the internal speakers. I have no way to adjust the soundbar.
The sub starts to respond in the middle ranges which leads to a heavy vocal experience (ie football games) and I have to turn it down to the point where it's almost useless. Good punch for movies and stuff.
If you want a simple sound bar, this is for you. You can probably go cheaper for a wired sub. Not a whole lot of options as far as setup. The remote learning feature is very cool and easy to use.
EDIT: After a while, I noticed the background noises sometimes were louder than the dialoge, esp watching sports. It sounded like the crowd/band/ect were much louder than the announcer. I changed the trim setting on the back to the lowest setting and that has made all the difference. I'm even more pleased with it now. I can turn the sub up a little more to where it should be.

I purchased this unit to add umph to the sound of the Plasma TV I purchased (Panasonic TH-42PZ77U 42" Class 1080p Plasma Flat Panel TV and HDTV). The ability to place the subwoofer in a corner without having to run wires is a blessing. And with the subwoofer in a corner you get a good amount of volume. The sound bar itself sits right on top of the Panasonic 42PZ77U firmly. It was easy for the sound bar to learn my TV's remote controls so that now when I turn on the TV the sound bar and subwoofer turn on simultaneously. Of course the volume on the TV remote also controls the volume of the sound bar and subwoofer. Note that this is not surround sound but it adds a great deal of sound to any TV.

I had TVee up and running in 5 minutes. That's the beauty of this system, it's simplicity. Instead of adding another remote to the fray, the main speaker learns your current remote's volume/mute controls...sweet. Why haven't any other manufacturers thought of that, instead of bundling [not to mention charging extra for] another remote control?
In the world of soundbars, Boston Acoustics has separated themselves from the pack by creating a reasonably priced, excellent sounding, simple system--abstaining from the 'faux' surround sound mantra. Who knew enhanced stereo could sound so good? I've had mine for weeks, and I love it.
Last and definitely not least, let's talk about the WIRELESS SUBWOOFER. Yeah, the wireless subwoofer that is not affected by my wireless network (802.11g), or my cordless phones (5.8GHz). No drops, no clicks, and no hums. Since I plugged it in, I haven't thought about it...until the room rumbles. I have the bass level at 2, and Die Hard 4 sounded amazing!
This system kicks! Put it on your short list--especially if you are dreading running/seeing speaker wires. In my opinion, it's the only contender at this price point.
