Any soundbar or sound system will be better than the normal TV sound. I got a Sonos Arc Dolby Atmos soundbar in my small bedroom. 3 meters between the walls and 2,4 meters from the floor to the ceiling. The sound bounces everywhere and the sound quality is great! That soundbar usually cost $1000, but I got it for $800 with increased warranty as well.
Another great video Paul showing something different for those who want an easy cheaper way of getting home surround. Remember when some tv's like Toshiba used to come with extra speaker's, i Remember parents got a wharfdale surround system back in the day. I have a full set up with amp and monitor floorstanders. Awaiting to set up in new extension. Can i ask where you got the fireplace as the top looks big enough to put my monitor c50 centre on, would look good with tv above
Not a bad lil system for a fair price. The fact it has atmos and e arc make it a great deal!! I just bought a samsung Q990D soundbar set up to use with my new samsung 65 inch in my master bedroom. It sure sounds great!!! Thanks for all u do Paul!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉😊😊😊
A dedicated amp and speakers are always better in my opinion, but like you said, soundbars have their place, and not everyone has the funds or space for a big sound setup. You can spend more on just cables for a full on speaker setup, than you can for this soundbar, which is crazy.
@@TheTechGiantRUclipsAlso, if soundbars can come with wireless speakers why haven't av receivers moved into 21st century yet?! True home cinema is a prisoner to wire.
I have a 5.1 surround system that includes a Yamaha amplifier rated at 100W RMS Per channel. Jamo (made in Denmark) wooden enclosure speakers in cherry wood finish with crossover (2x E670 Front floor standing speakers 150W each. 1x E6CEN centre speaker 150W. 2x E610 Rear surr. Bookshelf speakers 140W each, and one E6SUB 10" 100W Subwoofer). It's a big set and very powerful, it can brake window glass! Sound is crystal clear, rich and full, the whole spectrum, it's awesome. Wood has much better acoustic properties than plastic. Of course these days we can find very good soundbar sets. I think it's mostly a matter of space & budget for somebody to make a choice.
Unlike dedicated height / in-ceiling channels with a wired setup, Dolby Atmos on a soundbar is basically what one would call virtual! I prefer to call it bouncy bouncy reflected soundstage imaging 😊
I have small gaming tv's and the old games have stereo, prologic 2, and dolby digital. Will it decode or upmix stereo to 5.1. I read the d50 rear speakers just Mirror the front stage.
With it having Dolby Atmos but no height or up firing speakers how was the blast from the explosion i get the feeling from my Samsung q700b as if the blast is coming towards me many of times have ducked 😂
It's what they call virtual! Virtual sounds are quite different in comparison to dedicated wired up speakers which are aimed directly at one's listening position. More impactful, more Dynamics more sound stage the list goes on..
You won't get real atmos of any sort with that. It will be simulated atmos if it outputs any form of atmos and that won't sound anything near as good as atmos without up firing speakers. Plus the soundbar itself will have just two front firing speakers with no center or side firing speakers. It's ok for the price. But it's definitely not an atmos soundbar.
Good video,there's all this brilliant technology yet there's sod all on to watch so I won't bother getting anything like this ,hence why I don't pay for a TV license.
Paul, unfortunately I have to reprimand you. A wired system and you haven't measured the cable lengths! Very important, especially the cable length for the rear speakers. I still consider you the king of measuring, but the danger of losing this title is lurking 😉😃
@@leftwinger764personally, I would persevere and carry on saving and purchase a pair of budget stereo speakers, which would preferably would be driven by a budget AVR, especially if one also enjoys listening to music, too
@@totalplonker824 You have a point there. A soundbar in the highest segment reproduces music very nicely. But it is still behind. For dolby-atmos reproduction, a separate amplifier and speakers are in my opinion no longer superior.
The company that male the soundbar have been in contact, and are sending me over a discount code to offer to my viewers, that should bring the price right down 😊
They are ok they do the job if you don't have space for a full 5.1.4 speaker system my Samsung q700b with additional rear Dolby Atmos speakers does the job was very surprised well I have had a Samsung set up before now so should know they are capable
You are clearly not currently aware of what a high-end cable-free Earc HDMI Dolby Atmos soundbar, with Dolby Atmos speakers and a subwoofer, performs today.
Massively outdated system even in 2022 standards ! I personally run Sony tv and Denon soundbar equipment over virtually wireless connections . Pays to go for premium , reminds me too much of tv sound equipment circa 2006 🤣
Dolby Atmos compatible,heh ,lol.people dont understand things and belive some marketing bullshido..or you have atmos,or you dont.if you have soundbar you dont have
Buy the Poseidon D60 here - amzn.to/4eNvZOt

@@aerostarsreal holy sh*t I was waiting for the amazon sales tomorrow but just realised you are completely right, they have raised the price hugely!

Great job, Paul. You look so relaxed doing this demo. A vital RUclipsr to help people feel happy. Defo for me anyway ♥️👍
Nice one Paul, always love how thorough you are and your infectious good humour. Keep up the great work
The key here is it accepts a dolby atmos signal, but the sound you hear will barely resemble true dolby atmos
Best video on this soundbar .Cheers mate
@@philiplloyd9451 thank you 😊

@THE,TECH,GIANT Great video, Paul.
I love your videos, man. Thank you for your work 👍
Glad you like them!
And it's my pleasure 🙂
I’ve been looking for a small surround system for my bedroom. This seems perfect.
A UK supplied plug in the UK. Wonders never cease 😅
The Poseidon Adventure 😁

It’s fake atmos unfortunately. You need an up facing speaker for true atmos.
@@Ryo22 Yep 💯% correct 👌
For a budget system…spot on!
All these dossers saying “soundbars are meh”…..STFU man😂 they have a place and sound great

Interesting will have to check if amazon can ship to this country.
Its currently under 200 on Amazon for in the UK, actually way under 200
Thanks for the demo. How is the front left and right channels with this short soundbar?
Any Dolby Atmos soundbar is as good as your ceiling if it will bounce the sound off the ceiling or absorb it
Bounce or absorb, which is it?
Depends on the bass penetration lool idk both just go with it @@totalplonker824
personally based on tests, is it D60 or D70? will have it shipped here internationally in Asia. needs your suggestions please
Ordered ,I will be interested to see how performs
Arnold sweaty knickers
How can it be Dolby Atmos with no upfiring height speakers🤔
No sound bar is truly Dolby compatible, it can just accept the signal and, at best, replicate it

another banger of a vid
Cheers buddy 👍
Hi, where are you seeing this for £170? Amazon its currently £230
Looks neat - sadly, not under £200 anymore - now £239
It's £240 with a £40 voucher on Amazon currently
It was only £170 at time of filming.
Think there is a £40 voucher you can click to apply on Amazon.
Found it right now on amazon £170

The Tech Giant look best is Samsung 990C...
The way u skipped through terminator 2 i wish uou skipped through hobbs and shaw because the dolby sound wasnt showcased :(
amazing

Don't blame you mate. The licence fee is an absolute joke.

I know mate, I've really let myself down on this one 😂
Of the cables are short can I buy longer cables? Or it has to be the ones that come with it?
@@GcjBooyou can buy longer cables. No problem.

Im not a lover of soundbars tbh.
Much prefer a reciever and set of atmos speakers.
Certo che parli di meno e fai sentire l'audio della soundbar sarebbe meglio
Soundbars are absolute pish! Get yourself a decent sound system, there’s no comparison
agreed. a cheap receiver, bookshelf speakers and a sub cost around the same as a lot of soundbars and sound infinitely better
They are ok they do the job if you don't have space for a full 5.1.4 speaker system my Samsung q700b with additional rear Dolby Atmos speakers does the job was very surprised well I have had a Samsung set up before now so should know they are capable

You sound dumb
Room space & money aren’t set for everyone to afford a real sound system
Massively outdated system even in 2022 standards !
I personally run Sony tv and Denon soundbar equipment over virtually wireless connections .

Soundbars is a scam, like the curved TV, s. Get the real thing.
Dolby Atmos compatible,heh ,lol.people dont understand things and belive some marketing bullshido..or you have atmos,or you dont.if you have soundbar you dont have
All soundbars are jokes, nothing to do with real sound...just design thing for people who do not care about sound quality.
You do realize your bicep is bigger than your entire head ?
Yeah.
Wish I could say that about other parts of my body 🤣
