The subwoofer isn’t any joke, at about 13 x 16 inches and 18 kilos, but it surely’s not one thing you’ll want to maneuver when you get it arrange, and it contributes massively (pun meant) to the depth and breadth of the Bar 500MK2’s sound. With a 10-inch driver, it’s greater than sufficient to get to its claimed 40-Hz ground.
Controls on the bar are minimal, with quantity and enter buttons hidden within the heart of the matte black bar, and an included distant that allows you to regulate settings. There’s a handy LED display hidden inside the fitting entrance of the grille that tells you in plain English what’s going on, which is a pleasant departure from many manufacturers’ number of lights and colours.
Jamming On
The spectacular 750 watts of claimed whole output of the speaker and subwoofer actually are a daring departure from any built-in TV audio system. In actual fact, for a small bar, the Bar 500MK2 crammed my testing room with among the most immersive sound I’ve heard from a bar that doesn’t embrace rear encompass audio system.
It has an uncanny potential to bounce sounds round you in a approach that makes it really feel like they’re genuinely coming from the edges or rear, particularly when enjoying Gran Turismo 7 on PlayStation 5 Professional.
Dolby Atmos results in motion pictures are equally spectacular. Whereas watching my 4K Blu-ray copy of Ford Vs. Ferrari, automobiles zipped by my head in such lifelike element I typically felt like I wanted to lean out of the way in which. When listening to music like Agave Hearth Pit’s “Goodnight,” I used to be impressed by how cleanly it is ready to render the vocal results proper within the heart of the stereo picture.
