Slim-line style, full-fat sound
The slimline Sharp HT-SBW182 sits neatly beneath your TV and can easily be controlled by your existing TV’s remote. Supplied with a separate subwoofer, that can be tucked out of sight, you get deep, effortless bass that TVs can’t hope to match.
Upgrade your TV with enveloping stereo sound

Simply select the mode that best suits the media and enjoy upgraded sound quality. With maximum power rated at 160 watts, you’ll also find this soundbar keeps the action going long after most TV’s speakers have run out of steam.
Punchy bass from a wireless subwoofer
For cinematic sound, the HT-SBW182 also comes supplied with a wireless subwoofer. This gives action movies, music and big-scale drama the full intensity of sound they deserve. Wireless connectivity gives flexible positioning and lets you tuck the subwoofer out of sight.
Sleek style
At just 63mm high, the HTSBW182 fits neatly underneath most TVs. At 740mm wide, it also suits smaller TVs, without dominating the combo’s appearance. The matte black grille minimises reflections, while discreet LEDs indicate the source selected.
Bluetooth music speaker
Thanks to its Bluetooth connectivity, this Sharp soundbar also makes a great music speaker. Simply pair with your smartphone, tablet or laptop and enjoy spacious, dynamic sound that’s a big upgrade on basic Bluetooth speakers.
Easy connectivity
HDMI ARC/CEC is an awful lot of letters with a very simple mission! Essentially, the HDMI socket connects to your TV and, as well as channelling the sound, also lets you use your existing TV’s remote to control the soundbar’s volume.
Free your TV’s sound and enjoy a taste of the cinema, with the Sharp HT-SBW182.

Ok for the price
I am using this soundbar with my Dell all in one desktop PC. It is not hi-fi, but sound is ok for the price. The subwoofer does not seem to have a real speaker inside - just using a speaker cone to vibrate in conjunction with a soundhole. However, there is a tremendous difference if it is turned off, so it definitely adds significantly to the overall bass response - but the bass is not clearly defined.
Very easy to set up using bluetooth - virtually plug and play. However I was hoping to connect using HDMI cable, which should add significantly to the overall clarity, but I could not do that because my PC connector is not HDMI(ARC), which .is required for both way connection to the unit (it apparently shows the controls on your screen by using this type of connection.) I was hoping that using a standard HDMI cable would work one way only (depending on which socket (in or out) it plugs into on my PC, but it does not work so I assume one must have a proper ARC socket to even work one way only. That was a bit disappointing, but fir the price that I paid (£69), I still consider it good value.
I also selected this soundbar because the size fits onto my computer desk and it does come with a subwoofer (although see comment above).

Good for the money
Its a good bar for the money with an ok woofer, but it is only as good as the unit you plug it into. Do not expect a life changing experience, but a conservative step up from the factory speakers. It does sometimes disconnect form the bluetooth woofer, and switching between over air services free view and netflix/disney+/apple TV can also drop the connection and sometimes signal all together, but this is not enough to detract from the basic service. Small inconvenience easily rectified.

Packs punch and clarity for not much cash
This Sharp sound bar and sub have exceeded my expectations considering the cost of £79. Whilst I know you could spend more and get more sound again this really does add a dramatic enhancement to watching a good movie. You feel the sub and the voice clarity is great. Overall sound is very clear too. Amazed at how it fills my living room. If you don't want to spend much but want much improved TV sound you can't go wrong with the Sharp.

Great, but one issue.
Brilliant price and excellent sound., but, I'm getting lip sync issues. Tried a new hdmi, optic lead and correct settings on the TV and after 3 or 4 minutes the lip goes out of sync to the commentary.

Cracking Service!!!
I was genuinely impressed with the turn around on my sound bar.
I Ordered it Friday and it was up and running in my front room Saturday afternoon. The communication and speed of the delivery was outstanding. The sound bar itself is really good for the money and perfect for my needs.

Sounds great!
This soundbar punches above it's weight. The spacial separation of the bar is impressive and the subwoofer complements it perfectly.
