Which soundbar suggestions

Hi, Could I have any suggestions for the best sound bar. I only have a small space with a Sony tv, dvd & Sky Q box so I do not want/need a sound system just a small bar.  Many thanks 🙂

Hello @tingy12,

 

I would definetly go with a soundbar which has a at least support for three channels, so you have a dedicated "center" channel for dialogues. This in my eyes really will improve the experience watching movies compared to the inbuild speakers of your TV (which are usually Mono or stereo).

 

I therefore would go with something like the HT-G700 as it also supports vertical sourround (meaning it can bounce the sound from walls/the ceiling) to create so called "phantom speakers" which will really immerse yourself into the movie you are watching.

 

If you have the room to mount rear speakers, I would go with the HT-S40R as it has wireless rear speakers, which require only power and will be connected to the main unit wirelessly. It is also less expensive than the HT-G700 and features real sourround sound (as oppose to having to use "phantom speakers").

Hey @tingy12,

 

you're very welcome. Keep me up to date on what you choose in the end (even if it is a completly different model/brand).

Hey Tingy12, I would go with this one: 4K HDR 3.1 Wireless Soundbar with Surround Sound | HT-ZF9 | Sony UK  at least it has Bluetooth so you can use it with other devices as well and it's 3.1 channels.
