    Sound bars??

    I only discovered these lat night, and they seem awesome.

    I have a Panasonic led tv and Panasonic blu ray, so I'm after a Panasonic sound bar now.

    Does any one have one already? Reviews or opinions would be awesome.

    Also, Argos have a Panasonic for £199, seems well underpriced compared to other shops.

    This is the spec of the Argos one,

    You've listed a Phillips one?

    I wouldn't necessarily go with a mainstream brand one.

    Not sure what they all offer these days but a couple of high end manufacturers we make stands and mounts for KEF, Cyrus, PMC, Q-acoustics, Wharfdale.


    I know the buyer for SuperFi quite well, if you fancy anything let me know and I could maybe get you some cash off.

    Look at this one? - http://www.superfi.co.uk/p-3351-whar...eaker-bar.aspx

    I fancy a fat sound bar when I decorate, at the moment just use a pair of Q-acoustics 2020 book shelf speakers with a 2.1 NAD amp and a massive Onkyo sub behind an arm chair, more than loud enough and crystal clear! I've only heard sound through my TV once, it wasn't very good so has been perminently muted!

    Warfdale are pretty good in the guitar world, I know it's slightly different but the clear tones you get from them are ace,

    The details I put above are for the Panasonic, but Argos have slipped up and put the wrong brand, but correct serial code.

    My boss who does nearly all of our design work here worked for Wharfdale and designed most of their speakers 4-5years back.

    Do you know if the above one comes with a cover? I'd like something a bit more discreet.

    Seems they are out of stock too.

    Just asked my boss he said they all come with 'grills' yeah.

    Didn't realised but there was a pair of Wharfdale Diamond 10s behind me in a box, although L and R speakers not a centre/soundbar.

    Probably the best value for money if your after performance Ben. Emailed our lad at Superfi, find out when they're anticipated back in stock.
