Introduction:
Are you searching for Best Premium Soundbar in India, you are confused and you really want a detailed article then your search ends here.
Because of this pandemic, nobody wants to go to cinema halls and we have no idea when the situation will come to normal. That is why everyone wants to buy a good audio system after buying a good TV so that they can enjoy it.
Audio Formats like Dolby Digital & Dolby Atmos at their homes. And that’s exactly why you need a Premium Soundbar. But which Soundbar gives the best experience? That’s what we will get in this article.
Today I will tell you about the Best Premium Soundbars of India 2020 from ₹20000 to ₹35000. Friends I am dependent on the offline market availability of these Soundbars, that’s where I can test them. And I have tested all the Soundbars of my list by playing the same 2 audio tracks. On that basis, I will rank them and then tell you about their Pros and Cons. But before that, I want to tell you some important points about these Soundbars because they are essential for you to know.
You must buy a Premium Soundbar only in situations where you don’t have adequate space to set up a Home Theater system. If you have good space, then instead of Premium Soundbar, you must buy a good Home Theater. Unless it is mentioned by the brand that you can attach an extra Subwoofer or a Speaker, don’t spend on these things. Because in a Soundbar you get an in-built Amplifier or PCB which is designed in such a way that no external Speaker or Subwoofer can be attached to it.
You will be buying an expensive Soundbar irrespective of discounts. So before buying it, match the connectivity
ports of the Soundbar with the connectivity ports of the TV and then buy it. Bluetooth does not pass through Dolby Audio, Dolby Digital, or Dolby Atmos from the audio or video player. No brand’s Soundbar can compete with the surround sound of dedicated Satellite channels. They just give you Virtual Surround Sound.
