Just bought a new TV - nothing flash, just a 43" Sony 4K.
Are sound bars worth the money and do they enhance the 'experience'?

The sound on most TV's is shit - so yeah definitely worth it if that's your thing. I got one a few years ago - LG one. Not the best but the sound is decent, and the wireless subwoofer with it is pretty damn powerful

I've wondered the same. I looked at the Sonos and they're £600+
However, I live in a two bed house and the sound think a sound bar would be OTT until I moved to a bigger place.

The TV was 'only' £850 so spending over half as much again on a sound bar seems a bit much.

Well, looking at all the £1000 and upwards TVs in there it was a 'humble' one.

Yes definitely.
Got a Bose one. Well worth it.
No issues with making out the mumbling on BBC dramas!

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?
Crap!

I find them a bit bass heavy with little mid range and the surround sound with subtitles is terrible. |
