Platin Milan 5.1 Surround Sound Speaker System - Wireless Home Theater System for Smart TVs - WiSA Certified - with WiSA SoundSend Transmitter Included - No Receiver or Speaker Wires Needed

I purchased the Platin Milan 5.1 Surround Sound System on September 19, 2023 for $450. I went to NFM, Costco, Sam’s Club and other places looking for an audio system to suit my needs for my Sony Bravia 85 inch TV. I found that any of the soundbar systems did not let me customize the speakers or surround sound to my liking, this includes the newer Dolby Atmos. I installed the Platin Milan system and it was easy to install. Their phone app makes syncing and customizing the speakers easy. The sound is so good when you are watching TV the rear surround speakers will have a distant conversation, or you will hear papers shuffling, or a door close and you can’t help but turn your head to see if there is a really a person there or if it is coming from the speaker. To me, this is the ultimate test if I can’t tell the difference from real sound or reproduced sound. So real, you will need to turn your head to see if it is real or not. I really love this system as it does exactly what I expect surround sound to be. If you do decide to get this, order it with the rear speaker stands. You want your speakers to be as close to ear level and the stands will do exactly that.

I have a Bose surround system and a fancy Yamaha home theatre system. This is better if you have the power plug points. It’s simple to set up, plug and play, with the Sound sense app on the phone to configure and fine tune.Doesn’t work well with all TVs - I had an issue with the sound cutting out for a microsecond every few minutes. But it was amazing enough that I bought it a second time when I upgraded my TV.

This set is very discreet. the speakers are low profile and don't stick out like larger sets. The sound is good, setup was a snap. Be aware that there is no dedicated remote. You have to download the Soundsend App to control the volume, unless you are hooked up with a compatible TV via arc. The app is intuitive and you can adjust each speaker individually if desired. It also has a function that allows you to set your distance from each speaker so you are getting the best balance possible. The speaker sound is great, really really clear and rich. The only thing I was not 100% satisfied with is the subwoofer bass. I was replacing a Bose Cinemate system and the subwoofer on the Bose would shake the house. I have the Platin subwoofer turned up as high as it will go and it is a more subtle bass unit. Don't get me wrong, it still sounds great, it just is not as booming as I expected. The cool thing about this product is that you can add another subwoofer or a couple extra speakers to make a 7.1 or 5.2 setup. I have not done so yet, but I plan to add on in the future. I usually run the volume at about 75% and I feel like I am at the theater. Bottom line, I LOVE the wireless setup. I did not want wires running all over my house, plus I have relocated the satellite speakers a couple of times simply by plugging into another outlet. You might get a more booming sound from a traditional wired system, but if wireless is your desire, this is a great sounding unit.

The speakers kept cutting out and losing connection. The sound quality was horrible. I spent 1/4 of the cost on the Vizio sound system and am very happy.This can only be controlled thru an app on your phone. The speakers were low grade quality and very light. I had the sub woofer cranked and could barely tell that it was on. This was connected to my 75 inch Sony TV.

The system is ridiculous easy to set up. The speakers are first class quality. The sound of the Milan 5.1 Surround is excellent in our TV Room. Best of all is the WiSA technology. The system recognizes the 5 speakers and configures in seconds automatically. It uses a new standard (WiSA) that is quickly being adapted by TV manufacturers and other wireless speaker companies. No WIFI, no BlueTooth; it creates its own 5GHz network and does not interfere with our home WIFI network at 5gHz. The system decodes Dolby and the sound is delivered to the speakers in CD quality, actual a little better by the numbers. I can add up to 7 more speakers in this system such as ATMOS or Rear which I can purchase individually. I am impressed. I've listened to SONOS and they are comparable; the Platin brand systems are just easier.UPDATE: I returned the system. My initial review was based on a set-up in free field conditions with line of site from SoundSense transmitter to speakers. The room was free of Wireless Access Points. Unfortunately, when I moved to the intended final location, where existed one fixed 5GHz Access point 10 feet from the SoundSense issues started. Further, I was forced to locate the SoundSense in a cabinet losing line of sight and the SoundSense then could not communicate reliably with the speakers. Drop outs occurred mainly on Center channel which was most annoying. I moved soundsense to the cabinet door so I could leave it open when watching and listening. This was unsightly, but gave me more or less line of sight to speakers. Unfortunately drop outs still occurred. I still experienced a rolling drop-out when, according to WiSA standard, the transmitter sensed interference and was trying for a clear 5GHz channel for all speakers to use. So I set my five WAPs to channels, which were normally auto switching, to fixed channels outside the DFS bands that are used by SoundSense. This improved things a bit but not totally. The final deciding factor was that my Samsung Frame 65 forced audio to the SoundSense when it was turned on. thus I could not easily turn off the eARC path to return to regular TV speakers if drop outs became too annoying. Finally I will mention that once drop-outs start, they get progressively more frequent during a program. I AM REALLY SORRY THIS DID NOT WORK OUT. It's not Platin' fault. I've read reviews elsewhere on other brands using WiSA standard and they too experience some of the same issues. The WiSA approach is cutting edge now; the standard just needs to evolve a bit more.
