Overview
A home theater owner who wants cinema sound without rear speakers gets a multi-driver bar with spatial sound mapping, Dolby Atmos and DTS:X, plus a wireless subwoofer in this bundle. The bar can be placed on a table or wall mounted with the supplied bracket.
Many drivers, spatial mapping and broad format support aim at a full surround feel from one bar. The box list is long, with a wall bracket, template and foot, plus an extended warranty. The subwoofer entry names other soundbar models, which needs checking.
Who it's for
A media room with a wall-hung or console TV where Atmos soundtracks and streaming matter. Apartment dwellers wanting a short bar, or buyers wanting true rear speakers, should choose a different system.
Pros and cons
- Many speaker units in one bar
- Dolby Atmos and DTS:X
- Wall bracket, template and foot included
- Wireless subwoofer in bundle
- Wide bar needs a wide stand
- Subwoofer compatibility wording unclear
- Frequency response entry is thin
Performance notes
Drivers aimed in several directions bounce sound off walls and ceiling to create a wider, taller soundstage, so room shape matters. The wireless subwoofer carries the low frequencies, and the bar's output power sets maximum volume. Spatial sound mapping tunes the result to the room.
