View on Amazon Read Customer Reviews

I started with the Polk Audio Signa S2 soundbar, an ultra-slim unit that provides good sound for enhanced television viewing. With its sleek and slim low-profile design, the Signa S2 looks much better than its predecessor and easily slots into any room and home entertainment setup, opening up new possibilities for placement and decor arrangements with your SONY smart TV. This Polk Audio soundbar’s overall dimensions are just 35.43 inches wide, 2.15 inches tall, and 3.31 inches deep, making this baby a master of space optimization, and you can even wall mount it.

What is the sound quality of the Polk Audio Signa S2 soundbar under $300? I will answer you! While testing Signa S2 in Wooster audio lab, I paired it with a Samsung 65AU9000 smart TV. First, I played ‘Heart Of Stone Movie’ and observed good dialogue clarity but not better, and then I played the ‘Mourning’ song, and the sound was crystal clear. After looking at Signa S2 Soundbar specifications, I was thrilled and found it features a Front array subwoofer driver of 5.25  inch (13.34 cm ) d round and provides Dolby Digital decoding. 

Where’s Signa S2 lacks a dedicated center channel, and its V-shaped sound signatures need to be well-balanced. Movie lovers will find dialogue enhancement features beneficial to increase dialogue clarity, and their built-in Polk Adjust Technology installed already in voice levels. The Signa S2 sound bar features an exclusive wireless subwoofer for powerful and deep responsive bass (add richness to your audio), and this subwoofer only takes a littleuch space. The coming sound from Signa S2 will amazed you with Dolby Digital and create incredible room-filling surround sound.

Any Sony Smart TV can be configured with the Polk Audio Signa S2. You can also take advantage of Signa S2’s built-in Bluetooth technology and connect wireless devices, including Smartphones and Tablets, for music streaming directly. For fast connection, this Signa S2 soundbar features various connecting options, including HDMI ARC, optical input, and AUX (HDMI and optical cable included). You will also get an IR Remote control with Signa S2, which you can use to easily adjust the volume and change audio modes and subwoofer settings.

So, if you have Sony 4k and HD TVs, this  Polk Audio Signa S2 soundbar is a better option in the budget range. There are tons of valuable features in this soundbar, including Polk’s patented Voice Adjust technology, which ensures that dialogues and vocals are crystal clear and crisp. Remember one thing: if you push limits, then as a result, you may hear distorted and compression loud sounds, and we can expect that as it falls in budget.

Sonos Arc Soundbar

The second one is the Sonos Arc Soundbar for your Sony smart TV, but it is costly compared to Polk Audio Signa S2 but worth it. With its sleek and premium design, the Sonos Arc is much more appealing. Expert says Sonos Arc is best for Best for Samsung more giant TVs (55-inch TV) like Samsung QN55S90CAFXZA or Sony XR-55A95K smart TVs. If your Sideboard doesn’t have a bigger sideboard then still due to its compact size, it will easily fit on it due to its compact size and not only, that you can wall mount the Sonos Arc soundbar by using a bespoke Sonos wall mount (sold separately but budget-friendly).

As the Sonos Arc soundbar is on the expensive side, you will get more premium features, including built-in voice assistant capabilities (Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant) for hand-free control by Sitting On Sofa. Surround format support for Sonos Arc includes Dolby Atmos, DTS:X, Dolby True HD, Dolby Digital+, Dolby Digital, and DTS, making your movie-watching experience more greater with added surround sound so you can enjoy dialogue-centric TV shows perfectly. The good thing is that the Sonos Arc bar features the best center channel design and provides you with a dialogue enhancement tool used for improving vocal reproduction and several dialogue enhancements.

As Sonos Arc lacks Bluetooth functionality, it is only possible to stream music audio over Wi-Fi or Apple AirPlay 2. The Sonos Arc only features common connectivity options, including HDMI ARC/eARC eARC, optical, and ethernet for easy connection. Alternatively, you can use your smartphone to control the Sonos Arc soundbar with the Sonos S2 app. So overall, the Sonos Arc is the best wireless surround sound system for Samsung TVs under the range of $1000.

After Sonos Arc Soundbar, here comes LG SL5Y, which provides good surround sound as well. While testing LG SL5Y in the lab, I played Kaavaalaa songs first on a 32-inch Samsung LED TV.

The LG SL5Y 2.1 is capable of providing surround sound of 2.1ch DTS Virtual:X and features APT (audio processing technology to play 24-bit/96kHz audio.

On LG SL5Y 2.1, you will find multiple connectivity options, including HDMI 1.4 Out USB, but sadly, there is no Multi-Room Mode available, so you cannot play music on multiple speakers and soundbars. But overall, in a budget price of under $150, it is the best Wireless surround sound system for Samsung smart TVs.

Due to its special ARM Cortex A53 quad-core chip, the Bluesound Soundbar makes the sound travel eight times faster than usual, giving you a sense of mini-home theater right in your living room.

The design of the Bluesound soundbar is much premium, but it is 14cm higher, which makes it Taller than other soundbars. and when I placed it near a Samsung TV, due to height the, part of the screen blocked, but it depends upon which Tv model you have.

Enclave CineHome PRO Soundbar

View on Amazon Read Customer Reviews

After Bluesound PULSE, here is Enclave CineHome PRO, which is the most expensive option on our list. While testing Enclave CineHome PRO in the lab, I found that it features five mid-size towers with built-in class D amps that are easily placeable in your selected location. The Enclave features a sleek metal grates design with a hefty-feeling plastic enclosure and supports wireless protocol designed by WiSA Wireless Speaker and Audio Association) standard. If your Samsung smart TV does not support built-in WiSA support, then you can use the included tiny powered HDMI hub, which makes setup easier.

A wide variety of HDMI, optical digital, and 3.5mm connections are available on the Enclave CineHome PRO for easy connection, and not only that, there is an Enclave Remote app available. While using the remote control, I don’t know why some buttons look different like I found two other HDMI 2 and HDMI 3 buttons, but I only found a Single HDMI port on the soundbar, so what are the two other buttons for? I am confused. And If we compare the Enclave Remote app with the Sonos app, then the Sonos application performs well.

On the expensive side, the Enclave CineHome PRO is not the best but is a better option for Samsung smart TVs and features some surround sound modes like Dolby Pro Logic Movie/music for a good sound experience.
