The market could really use more all-in-one systems like this one. It's essentially a soundbar replacement designed with a stronger focus on music than movies, and it has the added appeal of a stunning design. However, based on your review, the clunky Spotify integration is a bit of a letdown, and the lack of a headphone output is less than ideal. I also needed a compact solution for both music and movies, so I put together a setup consisting of a BOSE TV Speaker, Bass Module 500, Raspberry Pi running Volumio, NAS, THINKYA JA-310 CD player, and an Aiyima A5 Pro DAC/headphone amp combo. This setup allows me to enjoy music through both speakers and headphones, while still delivering loud, clear sound for movies. I'm very satisfied with it, but I have to admit, it doesn’t quite match the aesthetic appeal of this all-in-one system. I really hope more manufacturers start producing these types of units, but with a variety of inputs and outputs, as well as networking features, to make integration into existing setups seamless.

Have 2 of these and a Q. Need a sub input. Great for music. I thought rubbish for a soundbar
