Affordable Soundbar Comparison - Bose TV Speaker, JBL Bar 2.1 MKII, Samsung HW-Q60C, Sonos Ray

Nice video, I haven't heard any of the sound bars you have in the video but if I was gonna choose, it'll probably be the Samsung. I've been hearing good reviews with some of the bars but honestly, the Roku sound bar pro imo is not too bad for the price. I know that you reviewed it a little over a year ago. I just upgraded it this Christmas with the Sony HT A9. To be honest about it, I'm not sure if it is an upgrade, not by much anyway. I really don't think that the Sony is that much better than the Roku sound bar pro with the Sub and 4 surround speakers, especially for the price difference. But I do like this type of video, keep it up. Thanks

That is interesting. I would totally think that the A9 would sound a lot better than the Roku Streambar Pro. I've actually not heard or reviewed the Streambar Pro. I reviewed the Roku Speakers and Sub. I was pretty impressed with that system tho! Right now I am testing the standard Streambar and so far I'm not too impressed.

It’s so weird how so many people love the Bose tv speaker bar but seemingly random reviews say it’s absolute shit. I am wondering if some of them were tuned improperly or something. I used one at an airbnb before and I watched some movies on it. Was pretty good for the little thing it is IMO. I have high end Sony now and love it, but would like something that is just good and compact for the bedroom and RV. Can’t decide between Sonos Ray on sale for $180 or the Bose TV Speaker on sale for $200.

I have a 10 year old panasonic tv, and its remote, is it compatible?

The Sonos is capable of learning any IR commands so it should work.
