Hi,
I'm looking for a Soundbar to go with my Sony A8 tv in the bedroom. I fond the sound from the A8 to be very harsh and unpleasant, I thought this might be the case as it's using the glass screen as a speaker and glass isn't a great material for sound.
So my main requirements are:
Thanks
I'm looking for a Soundbar to go with my Sony A8 tv in the bedroom. I fond the sound from the A8 to be very harsh and unpleasant, I thought this might be the case as it's using the glass screen as a speaker and glass isn't a great material for sound.
So my main requirements are:
- HDMI ARC - with the ability for the tv remote to control the soundbar volume
- Clear dialogue audio, I find dialogue is often not very clear so would be good to have something that has decent speech audio
- Bluetooth or apple airplay for listening to music occasionally
- No subwoofer, this is in the bedroom and used late at night and I don't want to wake others in the house
- A nice full and warmish sound when used at low/mid volume
- I'm after something that sounds good at lower volumes, not something that has thumping base or "big movie sound"
- No annoying lights that stay on all the time, especially when in standby or that flash a lot, this will be used in the dark a lot and in a bedroom so don't want light pollution
- I don't already own any Sonos or Bose speakers so don't have an existing ecosystem to fit into. I do own some Bose QuietComfort 35 headphones though.
Thanks
