Best mid range soundbar ? HTL 5120 vs NB4530 vs ?....

[troopa85]

Hello, I have around 300€ for a soundbar found these 2. Which do you think is the better? or any other suggestions?

NB4530:

HTL5120:

Note: I can get 5120 for 120€ less than the 4530, but which is better? Or something else and why?

Soundbars like htl9100 and sonos are too expensive.

Have you considered the new Yamaha YSP-1400. It's getting very positive reviews.

EDIT: Sorry, just realised its over your budget.

No it's within my budget, costs the same as the nb4530... thing is all 3 gets good reviews how am I to know which is better?

Difficult one if you can't get to hear them.

Read as much as possible.

Other things to consider would be:
Connection options, and if they meet your needs
Style
Size
Mounting options, lay flat or wall mount
Etc, etc

Ya probably leaning towards the nb4530 since I also have a 55" LG790W TV. I just didn't want to jump on the nb4530 just because I have a LG tv but because it is the best around for it's price.... but it seems like it might be...

The yamaha seems good for movies but review says it's not good for music and lacks some bass, nb4530 review seems more favorable. The htl5120 I'm still considering just because it's so much cheaper, but if the nb4530 is worth it I can pay that extra 120-150 euro.

The Philips would also be on my short list tbh.
