Overview

Mounting the included bracket on a wall, or resting it on a table, sets up this wide bar. It adds room tuning features, takes control from an app or remote and joins a network over Wi-Fi.

A big speaker count, Atmos and a long list of gaming and streaming features are the reasons to look at it. The limitation is the subwoofer, which has a connection entry but no listed piece in the contents.

Who it's for

A living room with a big TV and a gaming console gets the most from the video pass through features listed. Small rooms, narrow TV walls or buyers who need a subwoofer in the same box should look at a different system.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Many speakers in one bar
  • Dolby Atmos and DTS:X
  • Gaming features listed
  • Wall bracket in the box
Cons
  • Very wide body needs space
  • Subwoofer not in contents list
  • HDMI port count not listed

Performance notes

A wide bar with many drivers can spread dialogue and effects across the whole TV wall and bounce some sound off room surfaces. Sound field optimization tunes output to the room, and the center sync feature ties it to the TV. Pass through features only help if the TV and console support them too.
