Hisense - AX5140Q

For $96 there is a hisense 5.1 with a sub and two speakers. Hisense is absolutely cheap , but it was a much difference to me compared to price value of the TCL S45H

For that price its a no brainer, and I'm sure it will definitely be a huge upgrade. Although, try and get the Hisense 5.1.4 version.

100€ more... idk if feel like not really, they seem to be the same but just one has the extra 2 speakers. The x.x.4 means 4 upfiring speakers compared to x.x.2, so those upfiring speakers would be for Dolby Atmos content. There's not much info on the newer 5.1.4 so its hard to make a comparison on how much better it would be.

We purchased a 75” Hisense U8 in later 2024 and it’s surprised the hell out of me. It was an NYT Wirecutter top pick for 2024. PQ is impressive and it has an impressive dynamic range— really dark shadows to eye-searing brights. We paired it with the Hisense Dolby Atmos 5.1 soundbar (includes subwoofer and two rear speakers) and that system has also astonished me with how good it is. Previously we had a structured wire 7.1 Yamaha speaker system run by a Sony receiver and I was worried that a mere “soundbar” would not satisfy.

I’ve had my Hisense AX5140Q for around 2 weeks now and I’m loving the sound. It was CA$600 in Amazon. It’s a 5.1.4 Atmos system so I’ve been trying to watch as much Dolby content in Netflix and Prime and it has been theatre-like to my pedestrian ears. Dialogue is also several tiers clearer than my previous 2.1 soundbar that I no longer need to use subtitles and it can get loud.

Have you considered the Hisense 5.1.4 from Costco?

I was between the Vizio elevate SE and the Hisense. But for my works better rear wireless speakers and Costco warranty, I’m gonna miss WiFi on my soundbar but it’s ok, just brought it should arrive Saturday

It's the Hisense AX5140Q by it's Costco name. Released in Europe and Australia already. Soon to be released in US. Best Buy now lists it too but also no inventory yet. It's the revised version of AX512 with two additional up firing speakers in the satellites (additional to the two in main bar). Also adds some Hisense TV only features like "Concerto" which allows use of TV speakers in concert with bars speakers (like Samsung Symphony) and room calibration. The AX512 inventory is all gone for major retailers, so expect this new model available by Labor Day ... unless tariffs screw that release plan up.

Available now online Costco

The usual Costco practice. They get a special deal and their own model so they can sell it for whatever they want. This one is the 5140Q but without the Hisense TV specific features like concerto and room calibration.

Just to enlighten us, it's AX5140Q in the UK.

Bro! Go for it it's the AX5140Q in the UK i think. Their Soundbar has a lot of kick and good dialogue!
