I’m personally using a creative katana v2x with my ps5 pro. I chose it for space constraints and it sounds great.
Thanks for all the feedback, Ive browsed through the various reccomendations and some of them were really good. In the end still sticking to a soundbar because of the shape and how it fits nicely under my monitor. Went ahead with the Creative Katana V2X as there was an ongoing 11.11 sales that dropped the price to SGD 290. (The KEF LSX II and the A5+ audito engines looked sick though...)
I thought the katana series quite decent. With your budget can even splash for the SXFI carrier lol Katana V2 works just nicely
The creative Katana 2, I like creative because it has mids and it's loud! You can don't put the sub woofer too if you don't like
Sound blaster katana series is fantastic albeit a little over priced
