Grab a refurbished ultimea D80 boom. I use one in my office and it was a great deal at $211.00. Bass is excellent for being a 6.5in subwoofer and its compact. It features dolby atmos 7.1 and has both an eARC and an hdmi in. https://www.ultimea.com/products/refurbished-poseidon-d80-boom-7-1-soundbar
This is one of the smallest soundbar setups i have found. If you dont have room for this, you dont have room for a soundbar at all.
Nice! I just bought a crappy ultimea 7.1 for about that amount. And I live in Mentor. Lmao.
I picked up ultimea poseidon d80 boom. Man it sounds amazing. It's under $500. Ended up buying 2
Mine arrived today and I can say I am impressed. It is a huge improvement to my tv speakers. But I also donât really have any sound system to compare it to. My friend has a soundbar and subwoofer for like 400 euros and I would say that the voices maybe sounded a bit more crisp on his sound system but I think this one is way more immersive.
Ye the sorround speakers could be a tad bit better but I think for 300 euros I canât complain because the sorround sound is still so immersive
The bass is definitely enough, but I would choose between a slightly inferior sound with the D80 and a better surround effect, or a slightly superior sound with the 700D.
But I canât say for sure because I donât have nothing to compare it to
But it is waaayyyy better than my tv speakers
I have it and the only thing is that the sorround speakers are not that great in sound quality but you donât notice it
You just notice it if you are really close to the speaker
I recently got the Ultimea Poseidon D80 Boom for our cinema room. Was only $150 but I am quite impressed. Im sure the more expensive Skywave soundbars are well worth the money. Also check out their refurbished page for a better price.
Considering youâre looking for a minimalist solution, Iâd recommend the D80 Boom that Iâve been using myself. Itâs super easy to set up â no messy receivers or cables â and the sound is good (considering the price, you know). If your UST projector supports Dolby Atmos output, you can really feel the Dolby Atmos difference, trust me.
Check ULTIMEA Poseidon D80 Boom. I'm using it together with my Onn 4K Pro and Nintendo Switch. I also made a [video review](https://youtu.be/sxfWy1xspQI) after using it for a week.
