Sound bar..

[Admiral Huddy]

Been looking for ages into getting one so I think I might bite the bullet...I was thinking of getting this:

Sony HT-MT500 Wi-Fi Bluetooth NFC Compact Sound Bar with Ultra-Slim Wireless Subwoofer, Hi-Res-Audio

Unless there's a better alternative. I'm quite attracted to it's size and sound pretty decent in shop demo.

Anyone got one? Thoughts?

What TV do you have?

I manged to pick up an LG SJ8 for £325, principally because it integrates well with the dedicated stand to the LG C7 and the missus doesn't want my Monitor Audio set-up in the main living room. It's 4.1 (wireless subwoofer) and it's not bad but still falls well short of a decent 5.1, or even 3.1 set-up (AVR plus decent speakers).

Unless you go top end price I would imagine they are all much the same at that price point and I wouldn't spend more than £350 on one personally.

Sammy 48 .. Can't remember the model number off hand.. had it about 3 years i think

Samsung HW-MS650.

Interesting but quite big and expensive.. Conflicting specs regarding the inclusion of the optical in port?
