Soundbars
Soundbars transform your TV’s audio experience by overcoming the limitations of built-in speakers. Compact and easy to install, they deliver more powerful sound, clearer dialogue and deeper bass. Available with or without a subwoofer, with Bluetooth or WiFi, compatible with Dolby Atmos or DTS:X, they suit every use and budget. Learn more
Why choose a soundbar?
The slim design of modern TVs, especially OLED and 4K LED models, limits audio quality. Built-in speakers lack power and depth, reducing immersion when watching films or series. A soundbar corrects this imbalance by delivering cinema-quality sound without the bulk of a traditional home theater system.
A practical alternative to home theater
Unlike 5.1 or 7.1 setups requiring several satellite speakers, an amplifier and numerous cables, a soundbar combines all the components in a single unit. It can be placed beneath the screen or wall-mounted, with simple installation via HDMI ARC, eARC or an optical connection. Some models can be complemented by an external subwoofer and surround speakers for an even more immersive experience.
Immersive audio technologies
Today’s soundbars support Dolby Atmos and DTS:X formats, which create three-dimensional sound. Dolby Atmos-compatible models use upward-firing speakers to deliver vertical effects, simulating a multichannel setup. Configurations range from 2.1 (stereo with subwoofer) to 11.1.4 for high-end models, offering precise spatial audio.
Connectivity and multiple uses
Beyond improving TV sound, modern soundbars feature Bluetooth and WiFi for listening to music from a smartphone, tablet or streaming services (Spotify, Deezer). Some offer AirPlay 2, Chromecast or integrate voice assistants (Alexa, Google Assistant) for voice control. Multiple HDMI ports allow you to connect game consoles, Blu-ray players or other sources.
Choosing according to your needs
Power output should match room size: 120W is sufficient for 15m², while 300W or more is suitable for spaces of 40m² and above. Choosing a separate subwoofer significantly improves low-frequency reproduction. Our selection includes brands renowned for their audio expertise: Sonos and Denon for multiroom, Samsung and Sony for TV integration, Devialet and Sennheiser for acoustic excellence, Yamaha and Klipsch for home theater, BlueSound, Monitor Audio and Polk Audio for discerning music lovers.
For a compact living room, choose soundbars without an external subwoofer. For a spacious living area, opt for a set with a subwoofer and the option to add surround speakers. Fans of immersive sound should look to Dolby Atmos models, while music use calls for soundbars with automatic acoustic calibration.
