I was on the market for a new Soundbar after my old Soundbar gave up on me and with the wealth of manufacturers out there to get your money, I wanted to go for the best value for money and sound in that respect. I decided to purchase the Majority Sierra Soundbar, being already an owner of the Majority Oakington Stereo System and based on the user experience and sound quality coming from the latter.
I must say that this Soundbar exceeded my expectations as it took my home cinema to the next level. The built-in Dolby Atmos really take the sound quality to new heights, as even with the lack of a subwoofer, it manages to produce a rich and deep sound with a powerful bass compared to my previous Soundbar. To experience the best sound quality, it needs to be connected to the TV via an HDMI cable. If your TV has got an HDMI Arc port, it makes the integration of this sound system even more seamless. Please note that the HDMI is not supplied in the box and needs to be purchased separately.

The unit itself is not that bulky with a nice stylish, thin and discreet design, with stellar build quality. I like that fact the there is a front LED screen to notify of the different Dynamic Equaliser Sound Settings. I really enjoy this feature as these presets optimise the sound for each sound setting without having to manually set them for each sound type. It features six presets which are Film, Sport, News, Gaming, Music Streaming and Documentaries.
The Up-firing Speakers truly as stated bounces sound off the ceiling to surround the room with sound from above you and I was amazed how they managed that. The Surround Sound also enhances the sound quality with richer tone and a powerful bass, even with a lack of a separate subwoofer.
The Soundbar comes with a wealth of connectivity which includes HDMI ports, optical port, USB port and line-in. It also comes with a very handy remote control and line-in cables are supplied in the box to get you started.
Overall I am extremely happy with my purchase and would not hesitate to recommend this Soundbar to anyone on the market for a unit with built-in Dolby Atmos just like at the cinema and those who have limited space or could do without a bulky subwoofer without sacrificing on sound quality and the all important bass. A real bonus is that it comes with a 3-year warranty for extra piece of mind.

I was looking to get something for my (almost teenage) daughter as she’s getting into her Netflix, Disney Plus, Xbox etc and also her music but doesn’t own CDs and DVDs like I did back in the day … so I got her a new TV and wanted something to complement that. I ordered a 55″ (from another retailer, only for convenience of payment options) and was offered £200 off a £450 Samsung soundbar .. it didn’t seem that special for the original price, and I love Samsung stuff but they’re not exactly known for their audio kit, so gave it a miss and went for this instead as I’ve had Majority before and loved the value for money (particularly the in-car DAB which was brilliant and a fraction of the cost of the competition)

First of all, fast delivery from Amazon of course, and the item is really well packaged so no chance of damage in transit. The remote control is really easy to use, so simple, a minor point was that it doesn’t come with the required batteries – I can’t remember the last time I purchased anything substantial like this that doesn’t come with batteries, but it’s no big deal I suppose. It also doesn’t come with a HDMI cable which is pretty much essential when you’re connecting your TV through it, but again no big problem, just something to consider when it comes out of the box. It comes with brackets but it’s not obvious what these are for and there doesn’t appear to be any information about where to attach these, not sure if I missed it.

The soundbar looks fantastic, gloss black finish and really classy. One thing to consider – I placed it in front of the TV which isn’t mounted on the wall and it may obscure the picture, the soundbar is about 8cm/3inches high if this is a similar situation for you.

The sound quality is really good, the main thing is IT’S LOUD!! Compared to the standard TV speakers, it will knock your socks off. The only thing I would say is … if you’re used to a multi-speaker set up (and we’re talking 7.1 costing hundreds of pounds), you’re going to miss the subwoofer. However, this isn’t a problem for me, as the daughter’s bedroom is directly above our living room, therefore the thought of having 100’s of watts of subwoofer pumping through the floor / ceiling doesn’t appeal to me! If you’re looking at this as your main unit, I would suggest looking at the subwoofer version.

Dead easy to connect a bluetooth device. Once it’s paired, switch the soundbar on, and within a couple of seconds it’s automatically connected. Really easy.

One last comment – the manual is available online as a printable PDF – thank goodness … the ‘white on beige’ printed material is impossible to read so the online manual is a real benefit if you’re as short-sighted as I am and have to read everything at arms length …

Enjoy!
