    We compare 6 high-performance soundbars from 6 of the biggest names in home audio - Sonos, JBL, Bowers & Wilkins, Sony, Samsung, and Sennheiser. We discuss the high notes of each soundbar, and we will award bonus points to the bars that include a subwoofer plus other cool features. Our list of the best high-performance soundbars is based on price and features that complement both music and home-theater applications including Dolby Atmos surround sound. The soundbars we’ll be comparing today are the new Sonos Arc, JBL Bar 9.1, Bowers & Wilkins Formation Soundbar, Sony HT-ST5000, Samsung HW-Q90R Harman Kardon soundbar, and last but not least, the Sennheiser AMBEO.

    Keep in mind that not all of these soundbars come bundled with a subwoofer, but we’ll be sure to point out the ones that do. This is something to consider when thinking about how much you want to spend. All 6 of these soundbars have some important features in common. For example, HDMI ARC connection-types, multiroom-support, voice-assistant features, and with the exception of the Bowers & Wilkins Formation soundbar, there’s Dolby Atmos surround-sound for the most realistic 3D soundstage available. With Dolby Atmos, speaker drivers direct the sound upwards towards the ceiling where the sound then bounces back down to you. This allows you to experience the sound of a helicopter flying above you with true 3D sound. If a helicopter is hovering above the screen, you’ll hear the sound of the helicopter’s rotor blades right above you. When the helicopter lands, you’ll hear and feel the sound travel back down to your level just like in real life. The more Dolby Atmos speakers a soundbar has, the more holographic the experience will be. Add the subwoofer, and you will feel the impact of the helicopter’s landing.
    “ARC” (which is short for “audio return channel”) is a technology that makes setting up your new soundbar with TVs quick and simple. “eARC” (which is short for “enhanced audio return channel”) is the “enhanced” version of HDMI ARC that enables true Dolby Atmos with newer TVs. It’s important to note that you will not get true 3D Dolby Atmos surround sound without a TV that features the newer “eARC”. However, all of the soundbars will still use the Atmos speakers for great effect even if your TV doesn’t have the latest and greatest eARC HDMI. Controlling one of these premium soundbars isn’t limited to just your TV’s remote control though. For older TVs that don’t allow you to see the benefits of HDMI ARC or eARC, hands-free remote controls with the most popular voice assistants will let you control your soundbar with your voice or from your phone or a tablet too.
    Adding any soundbar to your TV watching for movies, shows, sports or music adds so much to the experience. All of them will enhance movies, gaming, and music compared to the thin sound coming out of a flat-screen TV. So, you really can’t go wrong with any of these soundbars, but each one will perform slightly differently in every room. So, if you have any questions regarding which one would be best for your room, feel free to reach out to us over the phone, chat with us on audioadvice.com, or stop into one of our Raleigh or Charlotte North Carolina showrooms.

      @@jpxx6674 i have the 9.2.4, in my br,lol. I like it ,the dialogue is much clearer than the 200$ vizio sb i had before,but music sounded better on the vizio,i watch a ton of movies,the newer ones with dolby atmos,and even older blurays soon great,you dont benifit as much with older dvds with lesser audios. I guess the bottom line,was it worth the money? Not 100 % sure,have not had it that long,and 1400 is a lotta cake,for me anyway. The one u mention is considerably cheaper. Based on all my research,i thought this my best option,i have it hooked to an lg c9 oled,which compliment each other well. Ive had a few issues where sound may not be producing during playback with a 4k player,or casting from a phone. But just turning the tv off for a few seconds,usually fixes it easy enough. I was concerned about the firmware update but mine came ready to go.vizio has a atmos bar for around 600 i think,which may be better for music,with black friday approaching, may get a better deal if you wait? Let me kno ,how ya make out. Nakimichi 4.5 stars

    Thanks for the review.
    Which sound bar is the best for a big room?
    I live in a loft and the main room is almost 5 meters high and has a surface of 65m2.
    With this height I'm not sure the upper tweeter will be able to reflect the sound against the roof.
    I have the same problem with the right side because the TV is almost in an angle of the room and the wall is too far.
    Many thanks

    We've owned the 9.1 for over a week and can officially say for $999 this is one of the best surround set ups for the money. Crisp sound, clean dialog, deep resonating bass and accurate spatial sound. We had purchased the Sonos Arc surround set originally and loved it however when I visited a friend and heard the JBL I decided to take the Sonos back and picked up the JBL. I can say that the Sonos set may have a slight edge in some areas but in our opinion no were close to Justify the extra $800.

      How’s the sound quality of the rear detachable speakers? Are they noticeably loud enough when listening to music or will it get drowned out from the front bar and subwoofer? I’m very close to picking this up within the next coming days but just want to absolutely sure this will be the winner.

    Hey, I am planning to buy soundbar for my PC which has 4K monitor (BenQ EW3270U) as well. My motherboard has 5+ Optical S/PDIF port for audio (Realtek ALC1200 Codec). This soundbar will be in my bedroom and I don't want 5.1 speaker setup. So I have rounded off few soundbars in a price range I can invest, can you suggest which one should I pick or if you have any other in this range that I should consider, that would be really helpful.
    P.S. I am not keen on thumping bass from woofer, just looking for crystal clear audio, channel separation, awesome clarity and good mix of high, mid and lows. Anything else apart from this will be added bonus.
    Sony HT-X8500 2.1 - Dolby Atmos
    YAMAHA YAS-109 2.1 - Dobly Digital/ DTS Virtual X
    Polk Audio Signa S2 2.1 - Dolby Digital (with wireless Subwoofer)
    Denon DHT-S316 2.1 - Think this is expensive than others

      No soundbar in this world sounds better than a set of high quality home theater system. If you really care about audio quality, you have enough space, and you do not mind speaker wires & an av receiver, go with the Klipsch.
      Soundbars have gotten much better recently. They are so hot, mainly because of the simplicity and space saving that they provide. Most soundbars are good with movies, but they struggle with music.
      If you don't want to do wiring, or you do not have enough space for 5+ speakers, a subwoofer, and an av receiver, or that you move alot, you will not go wrong with any of these soundbars.
      The laws of physics always stand. Soundbars are small, so they can't move as much air as floorstanding speakers do. The true Dobly Atmos experience happens with down firing atmost ceiling speakers. These soundbars depend on sound reflection, so they can never sound as good as ceiling Atmos speakers.

    I bought the jbl bar 9.1. My Sony Bravia has ARC port not eARC port. So it can’t not pass the actual dolby atmos sound to soundbar. So I tried to using fire stick but when I connected to soundbar I didn’t get the atmos option to select in Prime as well as Netflix. When i play same things from My tv it’s showing dolby atmos logo but i get dd+ while in Netflix i got Atmos DD+. Pls help me how i can get experience of Dolby Atmos. Shall I returned fire stick?

      While we do not have a Firestick to play with at our store, I think you are correct. There are some limitations on the streaming boxes with Dolby Atmos on Netflix. Roku has the same issue. Your best bet would be a new 4K Apple TV as that should output Dolby Atmos. You should also check page 9 of the JBL owner's manual for the best device settings.

I hope some of the big testers do a good comparison, but from just reading about this on the Samsung website, they list a whole lot of TV's and no matched soundbars, so it looks like you can use any soundbar and this new feature will simply add the TV speakers to it.

      Greetings Robin! I appreciate your point that this was a super positive comparison. A few points I should have made. First, these are all simply best of breed in terms of soundbars, so these are the ones that really stand out. The second point is that for every review we do, there are dozens of products we don't put out videos on. In other words, we simply don't waste people's time with reviews and comparisons on products that we don't believe in. The third point is that our individual reviews are where we dive deeper into any of the negatives if there are any to call out.

    • @AudioAdvice
      @AudioAdvice  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Hi Andre. If your room is fairly large, and especially if you have vaulted ceilings, you’ll need some decent-sized speakers and a good subwoofer or two. Depending on the room geometry, you may want to consider a Home Theater System with speakers all around the room for the best coverage. A soundbar system may not be enough coverage to give you the sound you'd be looking for in this situation. Have a look at our guide to the Best Home Theater systems here: www.audioadvice.com/videos-reviews/the-best-home-theater-systems/ and if you have any questions, come have a chat with one of our soundbar/home theater chat experts at www.audioadvice.com/ so we can help you determine which one is right for your room.
