Buying Guide: How to Choose the Right Soundbar for Your TV

Choosing a soundbar that suits your television depends on several key criteria. Here are the main factors to consider before buying:

1. Size and compatibility with your TV
For a harmonious visual result, choose a soundbar that matches the width of your TV. Check compatibility with brands like Samsung, LG, Sony, or Philips, and opt for an HDMI ARC or eARC soundbar for simplified connectivity.

2. Sound quality and supported formats
If you're looking for full immersion, go for a soundbar compatible with Dolby Atmos or DTS:X. These technologies deliver 3D surround sound that's ideal for movies and games. A soundbar with a wireless subwoofer enhances the bass without extra cables.

3. Connectivity and smart features
A Bluetooth and Wi-Fi soundbar lets you easily stream music from your smartphone or favorite apps. Some models come with built-in voice assistants (Google Assistant, Alexa) or are compatible with AirPlay 2 and Chromecast for a seamless connected experience.

4. Available space
For smaller rooms, choose a compact soundbar or a slim model for wall mounting. If you have more space, you can consider a 2.1 or 5.1 system with wireless rear speakers for a more immersive setup.

5. Primary use
Define your main need:

• For movies and series: choose a home cinema soundbar with wide and powerful sound.
• For music: a high-end stereo soundbar with excellent frequency response is ideal.
• For everyday use: a versatile model with great value for money will do the job.
