Is the soundbar any good?

Surprised Argos have stock of the SH7, most retailers ended the offer in March. It's pretty decent and sits well with the TV.
I generally leave it on Standard mode with the wireless sub level reduced to -10 as it's too bass heavy. Cinema mode creates a wider sound image with better directional effects but it doesn't work well with certain programmes (e.g. quiz shows, soaps, the news), the lack of sound information seems to cause occasional fluctuations in speech volume.

Seriously tempted by this having waited for prices dropping since the run up to Xmas. Came close to pulling the trigger on an E6 from John Lewis last week but not sure I can justify the extra cost for an integrated sound bar I'll not use and 3D which is nice but is it £500 quids worth of nice?
Think this is the cheapest its been with the sound bar thrown in given the 10% code though my memory seems to recall a very small window when this might have been available at roughly the same price back in January with another discount. Like the poster above mentions, would be great with no sound bar with the net value knocked off the purchase price as most of us looking to invest in these tv's already own superior sound bars/speakers but I just can't see it happening having tracked these prices for quite some time now.
A quick check on ebay suggests that £100 - £150 should be achievable for offloading the sound bar so this may be the best option.
With the new models filtering through though there is potential for further drops but my gut feel is they'll be pretty minor for the first few months whilst the new models sell at RRP prices considering the relatively minor improvements.
Only thing that worries me is the 12 month only warranty...
On the plus side though, you'll get a tenner voucher!

Trust md the 3d is worth the extra. People who have always said they can't stand it are blown away by oled 3d, it is more impressive than any of the 4k blu-rays I have
They recently patched this to have lower gaming latency, it's still very high and I'd say if you're a gamer or using it as a Monitor then don't bother, I also think for tv it's not worth it. However if you're a movie buff then you cannot get a better tv for the price.
Just make sure you don't leave a still image On it, my Mum got one and every time I go round, there is so much burnt into the TVs that you notice when the image is all one colour.
Apparently it goes when you leave it off for awhile, but I dunno it bothers me.

I can understand it may not be for gaming or pic monitor - which I'm not particularly interested in, however, you're comment for tv it's not worth it? I think this is just the reason people would buy a Oled over edge lit LCD Also from other owners on here the burn retention issues are not founded so not sure what's different with your mothers.

Claiming might not be as slick?
That's an understatement.
If the retailer contests it, you will have to issue court proceedings against them. Most consumer breach of contract claims will be allocated to the small claims track, given the value, where only fixed costs are recoverable (therefore most people represent themselves).
If you're a lay person, with merely a Which? education on consumer rights law, good luck in trying to convince a court to rule in your favour when your 5.5 year old TV breaks down.

Claiming under this might not be as slick as a John Lewis guarantee, but don't let a manufacturers 1 year warranty put you off
