Surround sound on demand****
Want to fully immerse on movie night? Simply remove the detachable speakers from the ends of the soundbar and place them behind you to create a true surround-sound setup. The dedicated center channel ensures you’ll hear every word—from blockbusters to podcasts. -
Dolby Atmos and Dolby Surround****
Get the full Dolby Atmos experience from this sound bar’s up-firing speakers. Your favorite movies and shows will sound breathtakingly realistic as sound flows above and around you. If you’re watching non Atmos content, the soundbar switches to Dolby Surround. -
IMAX Enhanced****
This powerful soundbar is certified IMAX Enhanced, which means it’s capable of delivering an audio experience that truly takes you to another world. The 240 W sub woofer looks great freestanding, and the soundbar itself has a low profile for simple placement. -
Play-Fi. Multi-room and more****
DTS Play-Fi compatibility makes this premium Fidelio soundbar a powerful component in a multi-room audio setup. You can easily sync and group Play-Fi compatible speakers, and stream playlists to every room in high-quality audio without dropping a beat. -
