Add Sound – Best Soundbars In New Zealand

A soundbar is an all-in-one speaker system that delivers high-quality TV sound without requiring the space, complexity, and expense of a home theater receiver and surround sound speaker setup. A sound bar’s long, slender unit contains two or more speakers and many provide either stereo or surround sound.

Since a soundbar is a dedicated speaker, it’s a lot better at handling both ends of the volume spectrum. You’re less likely to miss out on things like softly spoken dialogue and you’re more likely to get the full breadth of the more dynamic sounds found in the latest movies.

With so many brands and models on the market, looking for the best soundbars can be a challenge.

Are SoundBars Worth It?

Wrap It Up

Turn every room in your house into a cinema or a studio with surround and directional sound. Soundbars are perfect with any flat-screen TV as the built-in speakers are limited by the size of the TV.

Complete your home theatre setup and hear immersive sound whenever you watch your favourite movies and TV shows.

More recently, “surround sound” systems commonly provided as many as six or eight such channels, one of which was often referred to as a “dot one” channel to denote that it was only for the deep bass, not for a full-range signal. Hence “5.1” and “7.1” movie soundtracks where you have a sound all around you in the horizontal plane plus a dedicated channel for dynamic, deep bass. 

So if you are looking to upgrade your TV-watching, then buying a soundbar will upgrade your current sound and give you more rich tones without having the TV blasting on full volume.
