Soundbars with wireless rear speakers

Soundbars with wireless rear speakers deliver true surround sound: two speakers placed behind the sofa reproduce the rear channels via a wireless connection, with no audio cable to run across the room. The rear kit is included as standard or can be added later, with compatibility specific to each brand. HDMI eARC port on the soundbar, 5.1 and 7.1 formats or Dolby Atmos and DTS:X height layer, automatic pairing: this selection brings together soundbars capable of accommodating wireless rear surround speakers.
