  • Dolby Atmos sends effects to your listening position via the ceiling, so it sounds extra spacious.
  • This soundbar greatly matches the Philips OLED televisions in terms of function and design.

Beautiful soundbar with wonderfully warm sound.

  • Sound
  • Dolby Atmos
  • Simple connection
  • User manual minimal

First impression is really great, too many options to try them all in a short time. Sound is warm and clear, the dolby atmos is a really nice experience at home. Perhaps fair to report that the TV is also a Philips with Fidelio, so I don't know if everything is so easy with other brand TV.

Sublime sound without speakers and cables everywhere in the

  • great sound
  • Good surround reproduction with rear speakers
  • Far fewer cables across the room
  • Price

Sound quality is top notch! TV, movies and music all sound good. Listened from classical to metal, Pink Floyd, Chopin, Rammstein and it all sounds clean and I don't miss a note. Works well with the TV and automatically recognizes all suitable Dolby variants. Settings allow you to perfectly match the sound to your taste or mood.
