Just price matched for $325.

Very well reviewed sound bar!

Is XD Media a legit retailer?

They don't have a physical address posted on their website.
They are using a GMAIL email address on their contact page: https://xdmedia.ca/pages/contact
When I do a whois on the domain, it doesn't come back with the owner/address of the domain.

If they are legit, I suspect they are just drop shipping items from a distributor.

But the fact that they don't disclose their contact information means they are probably a fly by night operation. If something goes wrong, they can easily shut down and you'll be out of luck.

I think the idea here was to just use them for a Price Beat at Best Buy. YMMV if they accept xdmedia.ca or not though.

I bought this sound bar last year when it first came out. It is a great sound bar. For this price, it's a steal if BB can price match it.

I'm a newbie in market for a set of TV sound system. Would a 5 speakers set 5.1 always be preferred over a sound bar with subwoofer if the price difference isn't over I.e. $200? I mean, you are getting sound from all over the place instead of one direction.
Thx in advance.

I purchased a 55inch Samsung Ks8000 tv from them last year. Delivered promptly and had no problems during the entire process. Shipped from Ontario.

They're also found on Amazon. See second screenshot. Not sure if this helps at all.

The Richmond one.
I'm having issues connecting to my tv though.

I've attached the HDMI cable to the TV and the power is plugged in but still no sound.
I've tried all the options (dni, bt, HDMI, wifi, etc) and nothing...what gives?

I tried Bluetooth and it works. My tv does not support optical.

Thanks ! I will check with them tmrw, hopefully they have some stock and do PM.

For the sound issue, check the "Troubleshooting an HDMI Setup" section in this link https://www.techwalla.com/articles/how- ... g-audiobar
Guessing you missed the step 3(pressing the Anynet button(right direction button))

Not sure what the anynet button is.
I called Costco concierge about my haier 65e3550 tv and he said HDMI won't be supported bc it's not the arc in...just HDMI
He said I could try using the red and white cable and using the aux in Port but sound quality may be comprised.

I'm not seeing anything that says the tv supports arc unfortunately.
