Sonos Playbar vs Bose Solo 5

Sonos Playbar review

An expensive soundbar with a number of unusual features - first of all, it supports the Sonos system, the ability to easily connect additional modules (subwoofer, speakers), use both a full-fledged music home system and a soundbar for a TV. When playing sound from your TV, PLAYBAR becomes the basis for a unique type of home theater - completely wireless, freely expandable and independent of external factors. Sonos PLAYBAR - soundbar with nine speakers. Specifically - six mid-frequency and three “tweeters” for high frequencies, two of which are directed on the sides to achieve the maximum surround sound effect. Each speaker is assigned its own Class D amplifier. Its output power is 200W. There are 3.0 built-in channels. All these is enclosed in a metal and plastic case with a minimalist design. Two inputs for Ethernet cable, one optical input.

Bose Solo 5 review

A small inexpensive soundbar with many functions - Bose Solo 5 very pleased me with the excellent sound quality in films and games, there is Bluetooth, a universal remote control and much more. Single soundbar provides better sound quality compared to your TV alone. It has dialogue mode to make every word and detail stand out. There are 2.0 built-in channels. To add, this playbar has the power output of 100W. It also features Bluetooth connectivity to wirelessly stream music from any of your devices, one cable for connecting to a TV and a universal remote control to control your TV.
