Signa S2 Ultra-Slim TV Sound Bar muddy sound

I have a Signa S2 Ultra-Slim TV Sound Bar, have been very unhappy with the sound quality, which is very muddy - not crisp and clear as I was expecting from the reviews. The situation is the same whether it is used as a standalone speaker, or hooked up to tv. Could there be a reason for this I am overlooking?
