A clever design means that you will hear crisp sound and rich, deep bass when required, from gaming and movies to your Saturday night and Sunday morning playlists.
It is suitable for TV’s over 42”, so one for those who are serious about their viewing. The biggest notable improvement is the boost in clarity. You may have previously had to turn your television up to high volume, which resulted in a muffled slightly crackly sound. Not any more, as this system reduces the need to reach for the volume button while ridding you of any sound issues.
Even though there is an improvement, it is still an entry level model when comparing to some of the more modern, higher-end models. We also thought that the upward facing display was a bit annoying – you can’t see the LED indicators for mode selection unless you are standing over it, which is unlikely. To have it on the front, or some form of a sign on the remote would have been much more practical.
Beware that it will only work with HDMI ARC connections as opposed to standard HDMI as well, so check your telly has this before you buy.
But it still has all the basics, and we love the sleek design which won’t clutter up your living room. There is a small remote included for control from the sofa, and buttons on the top of the bar for close-up control too.
