10 Best Wireless Sound Bars For Your TV

When it comes to the picture displayed on your LCD or LED television, it’s obvious that quality has improved by leaps and bounds over the past two decades. Despite their much smaller size and thinner design, modern televisions are capable of producing some truly remarkable pictures on-screen, with quality levels that reach as high as 4K, where individual pixels become imperceptible.

Even as picture quality has increased, however, sound quality has actually gone in the opposite direction. The exceedingly thin design of modern TVs doesn’t allow for robust audio equipment.

Instead, speakers have gotten thinner, longer, and less capable of producing full, robust sound. In most cases, that can leave a high-definition picture seeming somewhat out of place when the tinny, highly compressed audio is produced by the TV.

Luckily, sound bars have come to the rescue of audiophiles everywhere. Designed as a slim companion to today’s slim TVs, these dedicated sound devices bring high-quality audio to the high-quality video produced by your television.

Excellent mid’s and highs, along with powerful bass, make for an immersive viewing experience. Though the options are countless, there are 10 sound bars in 2019 that stand above the competition if you’re looking for quality, value, and immersive viewing.

Buy on Amazon

Samsung is known for producing some of the most impressive TVs on the market, but even those models struggle to produce robust sound. The HW-H550 is Samsung’s mid-range soundbar, which sheds a few of the more premium features of the top-end HW-H750 which allows for a more attractive price point. The soundbar is very discreet and slim and is perfect for anyone who wants to improve the sound quality of their TV without cluttering up the room. The wireless subwoofer included with this sound bar beefs up the bass from anywhere in the room.

Pros

  • Slim, well-made soundbar
  • Good range of features and connections
  • Clear, crisp sound with beautifully integrated bass

Cons

  • Similarly priced rival soundbars offer greater authority, finesse, and scale

For consumer electronics buffs, Pinnacle Speakers is one of the leading names when it comes to blending technology and high-quality audio. The company’s 2.1 sound bar system features a digital display on the front, indicating the current time as well as pertinent settings that affect sound quality and audio availability. A separate subwoofer handles bass, which is generally standard with many of the best sound bar systems. Notably, the subwoofer is wirelessly powered. That makes for easier design choices.

Pros

  • LED display
  • Wireless subwoofer design
  • Wall-mountable features with optional kit

Cons

  • High price tag
  • Limited connectivity, with only optical and mini-headphone cable options

8. Bose Solo 15 TV Sound System

Bose Solo 15 TV Sound System, Black
Buy on Amazon

Few companies have cultivated a reputation for high-quality audio quite as effectively as Bose. The company’s Bose 15 sound bar system is the entry-level model among its sound bar lineup, perfect if you’re looking for the right blend of reputation, quality, and price. The system doesn’t feature a subwoofer, but uses Bose technology to produce robust bass even without a 2.1 setup. A universal remote is included, making it possible to control an entire entertainment center without fumbling for various controls.

Pros

  • Included universal remote
  • Sound quality controls for fine-tuning after purchase

Cons

  • Lack of a subwoofer means that bass production is limited
  • Large overall size could be cumbersome in tight spaces

7. Bose Solo 5 TV Sound System

Competing for the entry-level consumer among the Bose lineup is the Bose Solo 5. Though it comes in at the same price as the Bose Solo 15, this sound bar is far smaller. It features a very narrow design, perfect for mounting atop or beneath a TV with a screen larger than 24 inches. With a narrower design, however, does come a bit less “punch” in the production of bass.

Pros

  • Smaller design is easier to install
  • Bose technology ensures excellent audio quality

Cons

  • Lacks a subwoofer
  • Smaller design limits bass performance

6. Yamaha YAS-203 Sound Bar with Bluetooth and Wireless Subwoofer

Technophiles and audiophiles alike will be excited by the Yamaha YAS-203 sound bar system. The YAS-203 is designed as a 2.1 system with both a wireless subwoofer and full Bluetooth connectivity. That means the sound bar can work with a television as well as with almost any Bluetooth-enabled device in the home. The sound bar is also highly compact, feature a “learning” remote system for compatibility with existing remotes, and can be mounted on either the wall or a TV stand.

Pros

  • Bluetooth connectivity
  • Wireless subwoofer
  • Easily mountable design features

Cons

  • Remote “learning” feature may prove problematic with some brands

5. Sony HTXT1 2.1-Channel TV Base Speaker with Built-in Subwoofer

Sony HTXT1 2.1-Channel TV Base Speaker with Built-in Subwoofer
Buy on Amazon

Sony’s HTXT1 2.1-channel sound bar is a bit more “speaker” and a bit less of a traditional sound bar. That’s because this model, like the Bose Solo 15, is quite deep and is best mounted beneath the television as a base. This design was chosen intentionally, however, since it allows Sony to produce richer sound and deeper base by building the subwoofer into the box. Though marketed as a 2.1 system, there is no separate subwoofer to install, place, or configure.

Pros

  • All-in-one design is great for entry-level buyers
  • Bluetooth and NFC connectivity

Cons

  • Built-in subwoofer limits entertainment system configuration choices

Buy on Amazon

A 2.1 sound bar system is great, but a 5.1 system is even better. With a 5.1 system, customers experience five dimensions of audio alongside the separate subwoofer for bass production. The HT-RT5 system from Sony features a slim sound bar speaker to be placed at the front of the room, two rear speakers, and a large subwoofer. This makes for immersive, cinema-style sound that will prove a definite upgrade for almost any television in the home.

Pros

  • Wireless connectivity for mobile device compatibility
  • Rear speakers, subwoofer, and 5.1-style surround system
  • Compact design

Cons

  • No universal remote or control system
