I wanted to improve the sound quality of the TV in our living room and my wife wanted a Bluetooth speaker that was powerful enough to be heard in the kitchen so she could listen to music while cooking. After testing various speaker bars, I was unsatisfied with both the looks and the HiFi capability of what was available at the store. I wanted something that matched the decor in our house, not a nondescript black bar with a separate sub woofer. I decided I could design and build a powered speaker bar with an integrated subwoofer that would satisfy our needs for less money than what is currently offered at the store.
