Samsung HW-Q80R vs Sony HT-ST5000

Sony HT-ST5000 review

7.1.2-channel soundbar with Dolby Atmos technology delivers 140W of power. The subwoofer is equipped with a built-in amplifier and two emitters - a conventional speaker located on the front panel and a passive radiator pointing down. This explains the presence of a metal base, which forms a cavity for the radiator. This combination allows you to get deep and energetic bass. Wireless connection to the soundbar is automatic. When placing a subwoofer in a room, keep in mind that it must be connected to an electrical outlet.

The 5.1.2-channel device provides its user with 372W (overall) of power. The HW-Q80R can play Dolby Atmos and DTS:X audio formats. Despite the fact that the soundbar Samsung HW-Q80R is designed specifically for movies, it plays music very well. In fact, the panel can play FLAC, WAV, AAC, and ALAC files. Another great feature of the Samsung HW-Q80R is the use of its own high-frequency twitter. This allows the sound to spread over a wider range. Therefore, the consumer does not need to sit in a certain place in order to achieve maximum effect. With its huge power output and 5.1.2 high-quality sound, this is a decent soundbar.
