I just got one in today for an install tomorrow and I hope it sounds the way it feels. Man this thing is well built with nice additional features like a cool hole for a button style IR receiver. Of course it comes with the typical wall mount and table top feet. Very well thought out for a really good price. Like Snap or not, they continue to put out good products.

Which one did you get? I emailed them about using the larger one with a bracket to attach it to their art. TV mounts. I never got a reply. There is a part number somewhere for the bracket, but it is not listed for sale.

There is a part number somewhere for the bracket, but it is not listed for sale. The 30" LCR soundbar. Their new flat panel sound bar mount looks pretty nice as well. Model SM-SBAR-BKT. They appear to have a decent depth adjustment to accommodate different bars and should work on any art arm. Their mount lists at $80. There isn't any mention on max lb this mount can handle though.

Do people not like Snap? Yes. Some people think it's a step above Monoprice.

I just got the 40" piece in last week. It's still laying on the floor of the office, I matched it up with a 42" Samsung that we use for a gaming area. The width fits perfectly.
I'm anxious to hear it too. I may get it up on the wall in the next day or two.

Yes. Some people think it's a step above Monoprice. This is the first I have heard of that. Monoprice sells under our cost to the public. SnapAV sells ONLY to us at decent prices with good margins. They have great support and dealer programs. How can anyone even compare the two?

It's more like they feel it's cheap Chinese crap. I've heard that from a number of people throughout the last couple of years. I do think they are winning those people over the more they continue to add great products at a great price. I even heard someone tell me once that Jay Faison was expanding his CI business into every state and they were undercutting the bids because they were getting the parts at mfg cost. I told them they were wrong a laughed pretty hard but that was his perception.

Drewski, we're going to have to PIPA a few of these comments out of here ;)
Just pick your favorite sweatshop, I guess...

I googled PIPA and still dont know what it is. lol
Snap AV rocks. Hands down. If somethings not right, they change or fix it and fast. The naysayers are either arrogant, uppity or clueless, lol. OK, harsh but close! They are missing out.
Installing sound bar next month.

I have come around on SnapAV. They produce pretty quality stuff now. You can tell that because their prices are rising because of it.
To be honest, some of their old stuff was junk. They've done a lot with their speakers but I found them to be garbage about 2 years ago. That is what has hurt their reputation with some folks, in my opinion.
I use them now for speakers (among other things) despite not liking their first tries at making speakers.
