About this item

  • SMALL SOUNDBAR FOR TV: At just seventeen (17) inches wide and ultra lightweight, our small sound bar can fit virtually anywhere! Our speaker bar takes up less space and is effortlessly moveable, making it an ideal TV speakers sound bar! This sound bar for TV uses proprietary digital algorithms that separate the voices from the rest of the soundtrack. Voices simply "jump out" of the soundtrack so you can hear them clearly.
  • SUPER EASY INSTALLATION: Our sounds bar seamlessly connects to your TV with just one (1) wire for ultra fast, super easy, and supremely convenient installation. Rest easy knowing all accessories needed for the setup of this TV soundbar are included. It’s so easy to use that it has a single-sheet owner’s manual!
  • GREAT FOR EVERYONE: Great for all users but especially the elderly or those with hearing problems, our TV sound bars feature our patented AccuVoice hearing aid technology with six (6) levels of voice boost that effectively separates the voices from the background noise to make them clear and easy to understand. An additional six (6) stages of ZVOX's SuperVoice technology that takes dialogue clarity to another level by dramatically reducing non-vocal background sounds is also included!
  • THE ULTIMATE SPEAKER BAR FOR TV: Say hello to the ultimate sound system for TV - Featuring three (3) 2" x 3" full-range speakers with neodymium magnets, upgrade your TV speaker with unmatched sound quality with our premium TV sound bar. With unique and advanced virtual subwoofer technology for great bass, you're sure to love our TV sound system.
  • SMART SOUND BARS FOR TV: Our Output Leveling (OL) feature is a sophisticated processor that automatically makes soft sounds louder and loud sounds softer so there are fewer jarring moments when switching channels or when commercials come on. This system also helps by boosting the audio levels from a DVD or Blu-Ray player that are not loud enough. Plus, we include a brand new remote control that uses large buttons with easy-to-read labels.

It's Not About Loudness. It's About Clarity

If you can't understand voices on TV, what do you do? Turn it up! The problem is that when you turn it up, you turn EVERYTHING up - not just the voices. So background sounds, music and sound effects all get louder, and prevent you from understanding dialogue. But the AV157 uses proprietary digital algorithms that separate the voices from the rest of the soundtrack - and then manipulate them much like a hearing aid does. The result is uncanny. Voices simply "jump out" of the soundtrack so you can hear them clearly.

  • SuperVoice technology reduces distracting background sounds

  • Three 2" x 3" full-range speakers with neodymium magnets

Easy to Install. One-Page Owner's Manual

The AV157 is so small (17" wide) you can put it anywhere. It works well above or below your TV, to the left or right. Hookup is simple - just one connecting wire to your TV. Plug it in the wall, turn down the sound on your TV speakers, and get high quality sound and clear voices on every program.

Taming Loud Commercials

If you've ever been blasted out of your chair by a too-loud commercial - you'll love the ZVOX Output Leveling (OL) feature. It's incorporated in the AccuVoice Modes OR you can turn it on by using the "Other Settings” button. A sophisticated processor takes over, making soft sounds louder and loud sounds softer, so there are fewer jarring moments when switching channels or when commercials come on. This system also helps by boosting the audio levels from a DVD or Blu Ray player that are not loud enough.

    I can understand dialog again
    I have profound hearing loss in my right ear and some loss in my left ear. Watching TV programs and movies was a frustrating experience, because in spite my top-of-the line hearing aides, I was unable to understand the dialog. Trying to read close captions was not an ideal solution. With this sound bar, I am almost completely satisfied. I would like better explanations of how to adjust the settings.
