Soundbars

Flat-screen TVs are meant to provide a crisp 4K picture, but most are not built to deliver high-quality sound. The speakers built into even the highest quality displays cannot compete with an independent speaker system. And while your TV might look fantastic in your media room or living room, speakers would appear too bulky and detract from the interior design of your space. Soundbars offer a more modern and less intrusive appearance while also delivering high-quality sound. It is simpler than a surround system; it is just a single thin piece of equipment that can go over or under your television.

This means that soundbars are a good fit for smaller or multi-purpose spaces. They range in price from more affordable options to a high-fidelity sound system. Despite this, a soundbar cannot compete with a proper surround sound setup. If you are looking for a completely immersive experience, a surround sound system is the best choice.

Surround Sound

A surround sound system will completely envelop you in the soundscape of your favorite movies. If you are looking for an audio solution for your dedicated home theater, a surround sound system is the standard. Most have five speakers, three at the front that form the left, right, and center sound channels, two speakers at the back, and a subwoofer to provide lower frequency bass sounds. Become completely immersed in action-packed thrillers and dramatic Oscar-winners. Listen to every line of dialogue and sound effect in crisp detail, or, if you are a music lover, enjoy your favorite albums. Customize your surround sound setup with floor-standing speakers, in-ceiling speakers, or in-wall speakers based on your room's design. Although a surround sound system is more expensive than a soundbar, it offers unparalleled sound quality that rivals the audio in a commercial theater.
