Toshiba TY-WSB600 120W Soundbar with Wireless Subwoofer

Product Information

Soundbars come in many shapes and sizes, from less than a foot long to as tall as 4ft or even more. While larger ones often offer more drivers for bigger sound, often times you’re simply paying for a longer box. Keep in mind that a soundbar’s length does not directly correspond to your TV’s screen size.

However, you will still get quality audio and an optical connection does work with soundbars and surround sound systems. What size soundbar should I get? With its roots formed in 1875, Toshiba is without question one of the world leaders in electronics equipment. Having been at the forefront of technology for so long, they have been a front-runner in developing many of the entertainment systems we use in our homes today. As a result, there's thousands of audio-visual products from this brand, and therefore thousands of remotes available! Dolby Atmos is a relatively new surround-sound standard that expands upon the 5.1- and 7.1-channel setups previously offered by soundbars and other surround-sound systems. The main thing that Atmos adds is audio height: where other systems aim to surround you with audio to the side and rear, horizontally, Atmos extends that to sounds that come from above you. We think the JBL Bar 1300X would suit anyone looking for a powerful and immersive soundbar option, but particularly those who are after the visceral excitement that the best home theater systems effortlessly deliver, while also being relatively easy to setup and not becoming a burden on your living room. You can hook it up to one of Sonos' subwoofers if you're looking for more bass in your music, but the Beam's built in speakers provide a rich sound that make it an ideal choice for those who are looking for their soundbar to double as a speaker.

The first is the size. You’ll want to make sure that your soundbar fits under—or next to, depending on your set-up—your TV. For example, the long Sonos Arc soundbar is designed specifically for large screens, so won’t look right with a smaller 50-inch TV. You’ll need to know the size of your current TV and the size of the space you have to fit it and compare those figures to the dimensions listed alongside the soundbar you want to buy.

If you’re seeking to recreate a cinematic experience at home, there are no two ways about it, you need the best soundbar you can afford.Soundbars are speaker systems that are more compact and designed to boost your TV’s audio. Flatscreens may come with amazing image quality, but since the space for built-in speakers is limited, sound quality is disappointing most of the time. Sound bars are easier to set up compared to a full home cinema or surround sound system since it contain a number of speakers in one bar.

Speaking of connectivity, it also contains USB, Aux, and optical cable as an alternative to a wireless connection. All the inputs come with the latest versions, so you don’t have to get adapters or anything for pairing. In addition to testing out a soundbar’s ability to deliver sound to accompany onscreen action, we take time to try out any wireless streaming capabilities it may have, be that via Tidal over Bluetooth or Spotify Connect over a Wi-Fi network. Content is also streamed via features such as Chromecast built-in and AirPlay 2 to ensure they work as intended. This can also happen when your soundbar is connected to a set-top box such as Freeview, Sky or a Blu-ray or DVD player that has its own volume control. As with the above tips, you should ensure the set-top box has its own volume set as high as it can go. This should also prevent your soundbar from going to sleep. My soundbar sounds no better than my TV The Stage V2 has connection options aplenty, too. Optical, HDMI ARC and AUX connections are all supported, while a USB-C port allows you to hook the bar up to your PC and use it as a desktop soundbar. Wireless connectivity via Bluetooth is also available for those wanting to stream content from external devices. Audio is just as important as visuals when watching TV, but a lot of manufacturers overlook sound quality when producing televisions.

Dialogue will sound clearer, sound effects more impactful and music much richer.Once a product has been unboxed, we measure and weigh it and give it a good going over to gauge its sturdiness and quality of finish. It’s then typically connected to a 4K TV via HDMI, though we also test soundbars with laptops and desktop computers if that’s what they’re designed for use with. We then put the soundbar through its paces by feeding it a wide range of content, including films, sports and TV shows. Not used in ga.js. Set for interoperability with urchin.js.
